Wednesday Artist Spotlight & A Giveaway

Good morning!

We are thrilled to be rolling out a new weekly feature here on Spring. Each week, we hope to feature artists that are creating inspiring works...and find out a little about what inspired them. It's just a whole lot of inspiration happening. How awesome is that?

This week, we are thrilled to bring you the artwork of Kerry Ganiel of pennywishes!

When asked about her inspiration for her Bring your own Sunshine print, Kerry wrote,

"The "Bring Your Own Sunshine" print is based off one of my favorite quotes. I tried to add a sense of whimsy to it because whismy just feels very happy to me and that print is all about happiness! :) If you bring a positive attitude with you wherever you go, no one can get you down despite whatever attitude they may be carrying along with them. Sunshine always finds a way to peek through the dark skies."

We are loving this! We also really liked Kerry's Miracles print. As to what inspired this one, Kerry wrote,

"I've always been drawn to quotes. The Albert Einstein one in the "Miracles" print is a simple reminder to myself that we can choose to look at life in a positive way, smiling at all the little things that are so easy to take for granted, like a newly blossomed flower or a rainbow after a thunderstorm. Or we can live in our lives in the opposite way and let all those things go by unnoticed, as if there's nothing miraculous about them. I think life is much more fun appreciating the everyday wonders of our planet."

Kerry has also offered to sponsor a giveaway, so one lucky reader will win a free 5x7 "Bring your own Sunshine" print! Just be sure to leave a comment on this post before Monday at noon EST.  We'll choose a winner at random and will announce the winner on Tuesday when we post our new video...I bet y'all can't wait to see how the Law of Attraction has played out in our lives!

Thanks, Kerry, for your thoughts on inspiration and for sponsoring the giveaway! And good luck everyone!
