Joyful Expressions: Exploring Positive Emotion Through Art


There’s a joy that springs up when I allow myself to sit, draw, and just be. Humility gives birth to a beauty that silences all my griping, complaining, and judgment of others…and myself. So I come to my canvas with the intention that my time spent is therapy, a balm to the ragged soul of a girl who has been outside of herself all day. “Come back”, the practice calls, “come back and let the beauty of God pour over you.”
