Hey Swirls!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend! I certainly did. I spent my Sunday afternoon at thee awesome-ness that is China Town in Downtown Los Angeles!

One of my favorite destinations for color. It’s like a Boba machine exploded in there it’s so colorful. I think it’s safe to declare here on Swirl Girl Army that when I eventually grow up ( I’m 25 and still behave as though I am 13) I would like to decorate my future house with lots of bright, happy colors. I’ll share with you a quote that pretty much sums up my relationship with it:

“Color stimulates certain moods in us. It awakens joy or fear in accordance with its configuration. In fact, the whole world, as we experience it visually, comes to us through the mystic realm of color. Our entire being is nourished by it. This mystic quality of color should likewise find expression in a work of art.”
