I am told that I did alot of sleep walking when I was a kid too.It’s a scary feeling to think that you were not in control while doing it.The lady in your picture looks like she could be floating,or swaying.I like the colors in this piece.

love the sleepwalker – what an interesting topic – my brother was a big sleepwalker when he was little – just used to walk in the hallway – sometimes into the bathroom like he was looking around and then when back to bed – it used to worry me because I did not want him to get hurt – but I always thought it was interesting~~

I posted too quickly… I love how she spans two worlds, above and below the stairs… the Rapunzely long hair… the little attic or ship-window… Father Clock, OMG, love the clock.

Hi Leah, this is a lovely painting. So gorgeous. It looks like there is a smiling face near the hem of her magnificent dress. I used to sleepwalk as a child, my mother tells me. Once she rescued me from the front step. She wondered how I never felt the ice cold of the concrete under my feet. Good lord, I mean where was I going, ha! ha!. I wrote a poem about a sleepwalking child a while ago. Will post ... See all content

Love that sweet sleepwalker. I too have been doing a LOT of sketching in the past few days and creative planning. Now that most of my pieces are hanging for the show, I keep getting new ideas for more pieces and have been jotting them down in my sketchbook while I work! Can’t let the ideas get away from me….

Sleep walker is incredible. Such beautiful colors and a great blend of textures. Thank you as always for hosting us all. I can not say enough how wonderful it is.

Spot on! Self-care is key to maintaining creativity. In my past life as a 9-5er in a creative job with a long commute, taking care of myself often took a back seat. And my creativity and art paid the price!

I love the idea of taking a time out during the day to recharge.

And this piece is lovely! The texture, layering and depth are very intriguing

Thanks for setting up this fun project of art every day. I like your sleepwalker, particularly how the curve of her body carries my eye up to her face… nicely balanced composition.

This is gorgeous! And the comments work really well along with it. I like the idea of a calendar – I need to get busy on that, as I have lots of digital marbling that would work really well. Thanks for the idea!

Love your sleepwalker – she really conveys the feeling of being in a dreamy state, and your colors only add to that dreaminess.

The lady in this painting appeals to me in some strange way which I cannot express in words. I seem to know her. Spooky!

Talking about self-care, may I suggest using pure light visualization. It can be very relaxing or healing, depending on which way you want it. Hope this will help you see through Art Every Day Month!

Love that you are consciously engaging in self-care. The sleepwalker notion is so true. AND just about everyone I spoke to was experiencing the blahs or blues yesterday, including me. What was going on with those planets, one wonders…?
