Mixed Media Canvas: Let Life Surprise You

 Nadya Drozdova is being featured on FB group #Irridescent Secrets with a challenge to make something that was inspired by her work.

Well... I've watched most of her youtube videos ... sometimes more than once. It's hard to pinpoint what exactly inspired me as a lot of my art has some inspiration from hers. But this video continues to be one of my favorites.

Thanks for stopping by today!!!!
