One of my teachers once said that the essence of yoga is "do good, be good." Just be motivated by kindness to others. Little by little, the world will change as your actions inspire those around you to live in kindness too.
Pam Carriker was kind enough to send me some samples of her new paints and inks to try.
Pam's products (which are available at Jerry's Artarama) were perfect for this art journal page, which started out with an old map. I am in love with the sheer, highly pigmented quality of these paints. They are like watercolors in acrylic form and I truly enjoyed using them. Check out the Youtube video where I created this page, using Pam's paints, Mary Nasser's Latitude and Longitude Stencil, and my Horned Owl Stencil from Stencil Girl Products.

UPDATE: Vicki Ross asked me if Pam's paints are like Golden Hi Flow Acrylics. Here's my answer:
Good question Vicki - they are even more watery. I love my goldens, and won't be giving them up -- but they have more body and adhesiveness (?) than Pam's paints -- and so I think for certain colors, like the yellow especially, there's reason for having both. They are also truly matte - no sheen -- which is great for art journal pages. Once they dry, your pages won't stick to each other.
