WOYWW? The Letter K
Having Spring Break, I was able to keep-up with my family, as well as utilize my creative energy in the arts. Although I've learned to work very well under stress, I recognize that the usual multitasking I live with drains the time I can spend with the latter. This week, I played homage to the letter K on my workdesk through…

And the admiration of my daughter's keen eye for decorating our St. Patrick's Day dinner table, as well as my wife's exquisite culinary know-how.
Tomorrow, I go back to work and to my graduate studies, so God willing I'll be able to carve a little time to regenerate through the use of my creative energy in the arts. Thank you for stopping by and leaving kind words. Blessings!
Lovely work for the challenges Arnoldo!
ReplyDeleteSo very cool!!
ReplyDeleteAs usual a thoughtful and inspiring post! Lovely art. Thanks for playing along with us at Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!
ReplyDeleteLove your lovely art! It is so sweet to see these verses illustrated.
ReplyDeleteSo glad to see your name in the comments box....and the first one too. I very much agree with your sentiment, one should indeed live the life we imagine. Its odd to think that somehow we can have a practice run, but once you leave that thought behind, the world opens up. I appreciate your artwork and reading your philosophy too.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! Thanks for joining us with your sweet ATC at Moo Mania and More, Valerie
ReplyDeleteAmazing Arnoldo.. so many wonderful art in this post! Thank you for joining us at MOO MANIA & MORE Challenge with this gorgeous rooster ATC!

Hi Arnoldo, I know exactly what you mean about keeping the various parts of life going so they don't stress you out too much. Keep calm and crafting, that's my mantra at the moment....
ReplyDeleteI adore that caravan card you made, that is so lovely and made me smile! I bet the recipients will love it as well :-)
Hugs, LLJ 24 xx

Love your treatment of the letter K, Arnoldo - it's a lovely challenge to meet! Nice to see some Hebrew on your art work too. Shalom is a very special word! Thanks for your very kind words and continuing prayers for my surgery tomorrow. Less than 24 hours to go now.

Your art is so varied and each one is beautiful. I love your fun retro camper:):) Wishing you all the best with your studies and work. Hope you're able to carve in a bit of art too.
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun piece, luv it Arnaldo . Happy PPF
ReplyDeleteMuch love...
I remember being immersed in the world of work plus grad studies and have no clue how I would have got through it without being able to paint to de stress... I don't remember getting through as much as you manage though... hope it is a great semester for you!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful rooster card, and lightning. It's interesting how the Lord used the rooster to convict Peter.
ReplyDeleteAlways waiting for your posting! My favorite is the Isaiah illustration. Kudos!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful way to prepare for Resurrection Sunday! I love them all - maybe the rooster most because I have a thing for chickens (even boy chickens!)
ReplyDeleteLove your idea of playing homage to the letter K. So good that you had time this week to spend with family and recharge your batteries.
ReplyDeleteI just love your rooster Arnoldo! Perfect for our challenge. All great projects as usual, I particularly like that cute camper! I hope you enjoyed your spring break, mine is this week and I'm loving it. Thanks so much for joining us this month at The Mixed Media Monthly Challenge.
ReplyDeleteYou surely took K on quite a journey. When I saw the rooster I lost my breath for a moment thinking about how Peter must have felt. Great art with that wonderful map and faux stitching. Thank you so much for posting your entry with us at Word Art Wednesday this week.
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Carole
