We use quotes to stimulate thinking, inspire, and as a positive boost.  When I read a good quote, I often say, "Yeah, that's exactly how I feel", or "Wow, that quote is perfect!"  Some people like to collect quotes from various artists that has special meaning to them; often incorporating it in their artwork as the talented group of artists did in Creativity Contest #24.  A few of the works carry quotes that the artists invented themselves such as Joanne Ross, "The Path":

"May you experience your path in the Spiritual as well as the physical. 
And may your Journey take you to the Path of Enlightenment." 

 How about Barbara Miller's quote, "Call your mother/You know she worries" , for a humorous twist or Cecilia Swatton's work that carries the message, "Courage arrives one step at a time."  Congrats to all the artists who entered their fabulous artworks to be viewed and enjoyed by everyone at Artella!

Enjoy the Keepsake everyone!

As that was my first ever entry to Artella, i will keep this proudly, what a lovely Keepsake, thank you Chameleon. (Gosh you are clever, i have so much to learn with digital art!)

Do you know if we have a July theme from Aunt Bobby like we had the June Rose one, I'm not sure where to look for it if we do...if you don't know i'll contact her.

Keep creating beautifully!

Hi, Sharon:

No, I'm not going to post a Poetry Challenge for July like the Rose challenge for June. I'm thinking that maybe that Rose Garden may just continue -- it was such fun.

If you would like to propose a theme for July -- or if ANYONE would -- that's just fine.

The ZYX challenge you made was wonderful!

Hugs ~~ Aunt Bobby

OK,

Thanks Aunt Bobby, the ZYX Challenge sure has produced some insightful and interesting creations. I've loved reading them, and been surprised at how many things I relate to so closely. I just LOVE ARTELLA and all it's exceptionally talented contributers! God Bless Marney and Staff for creating such a well enjoyed/needed place for folk all over the world to get together.....
