I was walking the dogs early this morning and I already saw a number of kids carrying their bags to school. Summer vacation is definitely over. Since the end of May, I have slowly gone back to my routine. I am back to working out regularly. Although you can see me crossing out rest days more often than crossing out the scheduled workout, I am happy that I still get to exercise at least three times a week. It is better than nothing.
My erudite uncle left all these books since he finished reading all these before he left. I have finished one book and I plan to start a new one. I also caught up with some TV shows I have missed.
I have cleaned my closet and have done some laundry. I have a lot more to tackle but I am taking baby steps. We are still experiencing El Niño. Weather is hot and every simple movement I make leaves me sweating so I work slow to minimize the sweating. Sweat and I are not a good mix.
I have done most of the errands and obligations I need to finish.
I had the time to do some art.
This is for the Watercolour Gallery collab I am doing. Follow @wgcollab and @watercolour_gallery on Instagram.
I also bought pearlescent watercolor from itrydiy.com so I tried them on this painting. Can you see the sheen on the petals?
My friend, Jasmin, requested me to paint this jasmine for her.
I was also able to insert some practice. The rose is not perfect. I will try again to make it look better. Hopefully.
I am doing art and I love it!
Your art is really good. I am impressed. Good luck on working out. I agree that 3 times a week is better than nothing.
Thanks. I will challenge myself to more frequent workout schedule.
Good for you that you have finished your tasks. I have so many things to declutter at home pa. hehehe! One step at a time, matatapos din. 🙂
True. One step at the time.
Your watecolor paintings are very great and it’s really the best. Hope you could finished your undertakings on time. With regards to daily exercise, I’m very negative these past few weeks.
It is a hit-and-miss for the exercise. I need to push myself more.
wow, grabe, ang galing mo naman sis! I don’t have a talent with watercolors and paints at all! These arts are really nice.
This is something I learned. If you have time to learn it, give it a try.
Good to know that you are reading and writing more. I love the art work, it’s really beautiful! I hope you get a lot of clients this coming months! You’re very talented.
I hope! Thanks for the wishes.
I have to agree that it’s been extra hot lately. It’s good to see that you keep yourself productive.
True. I though it will be over after summer. it is already June and still, high temp.
Wow, you paint really well! Do you sell your work or plan on doing so? 🙂
I do commission work. I am thinking of painting a set and sell them. I still have to plan it though.
Your artworks are wonderful! I’ve also tried my hand painting through my tablet because it comes with an intellipen. 🙂 But paper and pencil and color materials are still different. That sheen, for example, is something I cannot achieve digitally. Keep it up and I look forward to seeing more of your masterpieces. 🙂
Must be cool to have that intellipen!
You really know how to spend time at home. When I am at home after work or on weekends, I just want to rest totally. Of course, my family comes first, so I still spend time with them even if I am very tired.
The perks of being single! 🙂
The flower paintings are beautiful! You made me miss doing art and craft… I wish I had the space to do that now 🙁
You are so busy! I saw that photoshoot. So cool.
Wow I love your art. Very very beautiful!
Thank you!
Gorgeous… Those florals are impeccable. I too love working with watercolors.
Oh, thanks! I hope to see your watercolor artworks.
wow! youre really amazing. i’m not good a drawing thus as i saw your painiting i was really amazed. hehe it’s good that you loive what you are doing right now. 🙂 good luck on the class! 🙂
Thanks! This is more of a self-taught thing. No class actually.
You’re actually very productive given all the crazy weather conditions. I love that get to do a lot of practicing with watercolor while you’re at it.
The temperature sometimes is unbearable and I am trying to control my power consumption so no aircon.
Education is a top priority. When the summer is over then classes follow. Thanks for sharing
Yeah. I hope those in school make the most of the education they are getting.
So many nice nice art I saw in this post… Nice transitioning.. Great great!
Thanks!
Arts is a sure stress buster. I loved your art. Keep it up!
A stress-buster indeed!
Your art is beautiful! I wish I had all the time like you do 🙂
Sometimes we just need to find the time to do the things we love. 🙂
Wow! I envy you because you already clean your cabinet. Mine? Hmp, I am still planning. My gosh I need time for this now. Hahahaha….
I still need to do a lot more. I hope you get do the things you planned.
Love your very organized closet Sis, mine is nothing compare to yours, I was literally just got done organizing my closet, and I forgot which drawer I put my favorite short, I get little crazzy and ended up so unorganized closet. I should get back on folding right after I’m done with BC Bloggers. BTW, love your artwork as always.:) Keep it up!

Thanks! I am thinking of doing that capsule wardrobe thing but it is still hard to let go of some of my clothes.
You’re making a lot of progress, Kat. I wish I could say the same for myself. I better get going after reading this inspiring post. Love your watercolor art.
Thanks! I try my best to be more productive these days to make up for the past month that I was busy doing something else.
Wow that’s nice art, when we are in kidzania last week I have a privilege to try painting with my son and it makes me feel good okay pala siya na stress reliever
It’s good that you’ve gone back to working out. Ako, eto,huhuhu.. super busier than ever… and no work-out at all. Hoping I can adjust to the new schedule and be back to working out next month.
Thanks for the link to the shop, Kat. My husband bought this canvass drawing book when we were shopping for Kristoff’s school supplies. He’s into art din pero he’s busy kaya napaisip ko ako na lang gagamit ng drawing book nya haha.
I really love your work. 😉
Thanks, Kristine. My watercolor was delivered as promised but there was a crack on the case which I did not mind anymore. Secured packaging sana.
You are getting better and better in painting. Galing! I wish my son can be as good as you. Anyway, I am planning to clean my closet too. I am inspired kasi I am losing weight, slowly but surely.
Matt will go places with his talent. Wow! Losing weight! Good job. I want that, too.
