Inspiration ThursdayLimitedPalette

At first I was not going to participate this week, I didn't know what to do. I went to home depot (got some paint swatches and decided to paint my limited palette on one. The colours did not quite come out as expected but I likesoft colours and bright colours. I enjoy colour it makes me happy....
This picture was done awhile ago when I was stressed and this these are the colours I lean to when stressed and unhappy, greys, dark browns, black. The picture represents how I feel some days when I have to much on my plate.....but now I just take a deep breath and relax and let it all go...
