Recently I was browsing the net for birthy arty images in order to inspire some new artworks following a bit of an artistic rest period. I was ready to start creating again but needed a little inspiration. Somewhere, I came across some images of hand painted rocks of all things. They were little animals and were pretty cute and appealing. I was surprised at the quality of the finish and it got me thinking. And there it was. I was back on the creative wheel again and here I am, once again, buzzing with creative energy. I shared my desire to paint rocks with my hubby who, understandably, looked at me like I was nuts. Who can blame him? I mean, painting rocks is something children do at play group isn't it? Sure! Because it is so, so fun!!! Anyhoo, I can see many rocks coming to life over the following weeks and I will share them as I go. Here are the first few little experiments.

I am so happy with this one. It is so light and warm against the skin.

This is part of my birthing alter set above my en suite bath. I hope to give birth here, or somewhere near here, in March 2011. I think painted rocks are a lovely addition to Blessingway alters too. If you feel called to have a go, please do! It's a lot of fun!
