In art, the hand can never execute anything higher than the heart can imagine. –Ralph Waldo Emerson
On November 1st, I joined the The Art Every Day month challenge that Leah Piken Kolidas has been running for 10 years. and yes I have painted every day. Some days more than once. 🙂
It was back in April 2011 that I first took on a painting challenge for 21 days and then as part of my healing process I set myself the Intuitive Heart Challenge to paint 45 hearts.
Now I am doing My Heart Whisper Challenge This is proving to be a wonderful journey for me as along the way it helped me to get clarity on my brand and has birthed a new website design. ( This is a work in progress, I have been procrastinating since July on changing my design.) it is a good feeling to finally be on the move with it.
Today I am sharing the Heart Whispers I have done so far and I have put them into a slide show for you. If there is some you would like as cards or prints, let me know in the comments or by email and I will make sure that it is in the upcoming shop at Red Bubble.

Congratulations Suzie. To do something for the pure joy of it and then to make a commitment to do it every day is so very inspiring. No matter what anyone’s “thing” is you are certainly inspiring. I aim to do something similar. Though it will likely not be painting, it will be something just for the joy of it. Thank you dear Suzie

Thanks Kate, yes I agree to do something everyday that brings you joy is magical- must be something in the air I keep using magic today 🙂 I find my morning practises of journaling, meditating etc do give me joy when i am in daily practice. 🙂

Hi Jakeb,
Thank you I make time each morning to paint when I get up otherwise i too would not paint. Having somewhere set up helps that you can just walk in to 🙂

I took the Art Every Day challenge as well, though I actually have a “sketch every day” challenge all year long so it wasn’t difficult. But I never tried doing it over a theme (except if we count my last year’s Sketchbook Project entry) and now you confirmed what I already thought about doing, with the aim of connecting to Joy.
I love the purple/blue harts the best!
Hearts are appearing in my art often as well, either in literal or symbolic form. A white bird is one of my symbols for heart for example.

You make my heart sing Nathalie, I am happy you like the music I think it works and I was wondering if I should change it
Thanks re the website- Des was wonderful with getting the structure plus so patient with my delays, it has been a bit of a marathon and there is still stuff to do ♡
