Inspiration Avenue Weekly Challenge

Wings
Sometimes when you feel like giving up. . .
a little encouragement is all you need.
Who knows what could happen?

Inspiration Avenue's theme this week is “Wings”,
a welcome and fun-filled topic from Kat of Wright Story.

This is a tiny mixed media piece, done on a 4" x 4" x 1"
block of wood. Everyone should have a little bluebird 
to tell them to keep going sometimes.

Just, hopefully it's a wise little bluebird who
will also point out if you're wasting your time :)

It's a fine line. . . 

See all of the Wings submissions at
Inspiration Avenue posted on Sunday afternoon.

  7. I love your painting for this week's challenge at IA. You are right about support, we all need it one time or another. When we challenge ourselves; it can be scary so having a little birdie giving us support is a good thing!
