lisa-marie's picks - week 16: STRUCTURE

It was one year ago this week, that I joined the 52 Week Illustration Challenge. I remember in the beginning watching the wall, mouth wide open as I saw delight after delight posted to the wall. Week after week I marveled at the incredible talent on the wall, nervous to make that leap and post my own work.

Fast forward a year and life is certainly different. Now, week after week my imagination goes into overdrive with endless creative opportunities bursting to be put on paper or canvas. My life has become an oasis of paint, pencils and colour. I have made friends that I know I will cherish for a lifetime. And still week after week my heart bursts with joy and excitement as I devour the exquisite illustrations posted to the wall, and Structure week was no different.

Thank you for filling my newsfeed with joy, for sharing your gifts with the world. Thank you to all of the new artists that join us each week, and take that initial leap, by posting your first piece. You all bring so much joy to my life, and for that I say thank you.

This weeks picks as always were hard to make. Below is a selection of some of the pieces that resonated with me.

Enjoy my friends x
