Entry 49: It is What it is

Hey Crew!

Welcome back! How are you all doing? I totally lost track of time yesterday and forgot to post my #BlackoutFridays post again! So that means another 2 for 1 this coming Friday. I am sorry to let you down. Everything has been turned upside down and I am trying to keep up with it all. Thank you for staying with me and supporting me. Now back to the content you came for!

Aries the Headstrong One

Basic facts about this Sign

  • Birth Dates: March 21 – April 19
  • Ruling Planet: Mars
  • Element: Fire
  • Symbol: Ram
  • Aries are stubborn and forward moving Signs. They know what they want and will do everything in their power to reach their goals. They are also high energy Signs that need to keep going.

When I think of Aries I first think of the Greek God of War. In a way Aries are just as headstrong and passionate as the God. I thought a volcano would encompass the power and the grace of this Sign. Painting lava was a lot of fun! There isn’t a set rule to how lava flows or acts, so you can go bananas when painting it. What do you guys think?

Two more Signs left! I have been having a lot of fun this this series. And I am so pumped for the next series too! We are cooking now. Tomorrow is Comic Sunday, don’t miss out! Monday we are going to be talking about promotion and how that all correlates with us. Tuesday is calling for an epic beast to show up. I can’t wait. Wednesday is the last part in the new branding identity quest. And next Saturday we are going to be catching some horns. Teheheh… I am so funny sometimes. Remember to stay safe and to stay sane.

Until next time,

Suzanna 🌙

Entry 33: Sagittarius the Optimist

Hey Crew!

Welcome back! How are you guys doing? Have you been liking all the new content this week? Things are really starting to heat up around here. 29 more days until classes start! I’m super excited to get back to school. I have always been that strange kid that loves school. I think it is mostly about the structure and the social interactions that is appealing to me. I am lucky that my graduate schooling is online, but there are major concerns going on about reopening schools around the nation. Do what is best for the health of you and your family. Contact your government officials and tell them your concerns. And if they don’t listen the first time, basically blow up their phones. Call, write, email, text, protest, do what you can to get their attention. Don’t let them blackmail your schools and community with withholding money because all they want is the adults to go back to work. You and your family’s health is your #1 priority. Don’t listen to the lies. You can get your education anytime and in a bunch of different ways, but you can’t bring the dead back to life. Stay strong. That concludes today’s rant, now back to the art!

Sagittarius the Optimist

Basic Facts:

  • Birth Dates: November 22 – December 21
  • Element: Fire
  • Ruling Planet: Jupiter
  • Symbol: Centaur
  • This Sign is the poster child of optimism. They can also be very blunt and straight to the point. They can turn any sort of negative event into a positive on. Plus they always seem to be the funny one in the friend group.

When you think of fire what do you think of? Campfire, arson, fireworks, candles, fireplaces, or etc? I could not come up with a composition that was compatible with the rest of the Series. Then when I was taking my pupper out for potty time, I figured it out. Fireflies. (Or Lightning Bugs if you are from the South and Midwest.) I thought it would be a cute little funny. The Magic of Art helped with making it look like they are actually glowing. But in the final piece I added of highlights in Photoshop to make them pop a little bit more. I also love how much Jupiter takes up the canvas. I wanted to make sure to emphasize the size of Jupiter compare to the other Signs. What do you guys think?

So we are half way done with the Zodiac Series! The next Sign is a goat mermaid…? How that makes sense, I still don’t know. Come back tomorrow for a Special Announcement! Sundays are going to be fun days! Make sure you also remember to take a self care day. The summer is coming to a close and things are going to get more chaotic. Remember you can’t control the world, but you can control YOUR world. Kick out the toxic things in your life. Choose a day out of the week just to vibe and do you. It is the little things that go a long way. Remember to stay safe and to stay sane.

Until next time,

Suzanna🌙
