Thanks to Walmart extending me the offer to become a Recognized Reviewer, I have been searching their 1,000 items list for the last few days and thinking about all the things we need, or want, plus what we might give as holiday gifts, especially to the granddaughters. I’m beyond excited to know that because I’ve freely given Walmart hundreds (I think it’s over 1,000 by now actually), mostly on food items we’ve bought from them in the two years we’ve lived in New Hampshire, that NOW, I will save us at least a few hundred dollars a year by getting free products just for reviewing said items. Yippee!!

Plus, I can order some items that have not yet been released on Walmart.com! So, I finally found a great watercolor set (and I had been looking and checking different stores online for a while). What a FUN retirement “job” to have now, right? And currently, I am an elite Yelp reviewer too, but I digress. I’m a writer, right? And a writer writes, as we say. So there’s that.

I had been wanting to try some watercolor painting for months, since my blogger pal, and artist, Linda, has been painting her sketches with watercolor paints. She suggested I get a children’s set of watercolors to begin with and that’s pretty much what I did.

I’ve already left my review of these watercolors on the Walmart site, so this is simply an extra post to show you all, my readers, the background on how I found these and what they are. And it’s all thanks to Linda’s encouragement. Aren’t I lucky?

You can get to know Linda too, if you’d like. And I’d highly recommend it. Here’s her site: https://creativeartworksblog.com

I’m so thankful for my new mantra: “Art communicates more than words, builds new neural pathways (in the brain), and connects us all!”

Yours in consciousness-expansion as we evolve and revolve during our mystical awakening. Doing-my-egoless-best, to take you on a limitless, spiraling integrating ride to better health, doing with more ease and less effort-ing, to help us find and sustain the JOY in our lives! (Sprinkling Gratitude all around while we’re at it.)

One thought on “The watercolors I use now

  1. I’m delighted you found the watercolors, Sheila, and I hope they open up a whole new way to play with creating for you! Thanks for the mention and link to my site. You’re a gem!
