With Gratitude

“Gratitude,” today’s doodle, by Mary Gow

A conversation yesterday inspired me to take a deep look at the lessons of 2012 and do some positive visualization for 2013.

Even though my recent 30 day self-induced creative challenge is over, the rhythm of the habit of creating every day continues.

So I’m letting myself meander with an ink pen and colored pencils. Here’s today’s doodle.

The word “gratitude” came to me.

Sending hearts, with gratitude.

I admire the work of neuropsychologist and author Dr. Daniel Amen.

Have you seen his presentations on Public Television?

One of my fascinations with the show is seeing what a “good-looking” brain looks like through brain scans.

And Dr. Amen shares how you can transform the way your brain looks by what you eat and by exercising.

Less attractive brain scans show weird bumps and spots but the beauty is a beautiful brain could still be attainable with changes in habits.

Today, is the final day of my 30 day personal experiment of blogging and sharing art every day. Hope you enjoyed it!
