JULY’S CREATIVE THEME
Welcome to July’s Creative Theme of the month!
I hope your summer is going well so far! I’ve been enjoying a lot of outdoor time this summer and I wanted July’s theme to reflect that. I had a few different ideas for this month and ultimately landed somewhere unexpected for our theme.

The theme for this month was born from this little quiet moment on a summer evening.
If you are new here, as part of my paid subscription level, each month I share an art theme and art prompts for our little community to work on and share together. In addition, I also share a step-by-step gouache painting tutorial usually within the theme of the month.
