Earth Day and Mother’s Day are in the Spring, the season that ushers in the “watercolor months”…probably because Spring is always so full of dreamy color palettes of flowers exploding everywhere.
Spring and the lazy days of Summer are both great times to break out your art supplies, gather your colored pencils and pens and paints and brushes, pick out your favorite photos to frame – and start creating.
You can’t fail – art is what you make it – and whatever you create is an expression unique to you. Gift the special people in your life (including yourself) with something to treasure. An “art basket” full of oils, acrylics, watercolors, paper pads, journals and mini-canvases makes an amazing surprise. Add in a portable easel and you’ll have your own creative muse at your fingertips anytime, anywhere.
UArt is an art store, a crafts store, a gift store, a frame store, a hobby store…you name it – if it’s creative, it’s probably here : ) We pride ourselves on finding and stocking the most environmentally-friendly items possible. We have all kinds of “green” art supplies that are recycled, eco-friendly and environmentally sound. All Strathmore 200, 300 and 400 series pads, as well as their blank cards, are recycled and eco-friendly, and Stabilo makes a lovely series of recycled colored pencils.
So get inspired to make some earth-smart-art and create something great for yourself, your Mom, or Mother Earth – in honor of Earth Day, and every day : )
