This painting was created with the idea that sometimes (actually a lot of the time, if not all the time) it's up to us to find the good in situations. There is so much to be thankful for in life and this process is a celebration of this and so I've decided to call it My Ode to Joy. I switched it up to be bright, cheerful and filled with movement. I hope it can help you find reasons to celebrate your life too.

Here’s a list of the materials I used for this painting: (***I now have the ability to monetize my site. This means I can include links to the products I use and when you make a purchase using these links, I will get a small commission. You won't pay extra for doing this and you will help me earn a little bit of money along the way, so I can continue doing this work. Please note that I will only ever add links to products that I actually like and use. Thanks in advance!***)
