Often times in my artwork I take bits and pieces from other artwork I've made and re-purpose it into a new composition. It's a quick way to create a new piece if you are short on time, it's also a great arts and crafts project for kids to create a great piece of artwork.
Another crafts idea is to take photos of your artwork in stages. Use these stages as a starting point for new works of art when you are in a pinch for time - just print them out and begin layering on top of them.
I set a timer for 30 minutes and played around with paints, stencils and created the back ground. The butterfly girl is from a recent painting that I copied and cut out.
The quote was inspired by Christy Tomlinson and one of her artworks. I thought it was so fitting. Don't let your can'ts get you down...and put a plan into action.
Here's an excerpt from the book Journal Bliss by Violette - I find it easiest to begin with a quote about what I'm feeling at that moment and then use colors and doodles to bring it to life.
