So if you’ve been following my Instagram account, @pins_artist – you’ve probably noticed my PiNStaChallenges poping up on the feed, in the hope to uplift & empower our human souls through positive & creative activity – If you don’t follow on the Gram, no worries, I’ll just share them on here from now on…
OFF PHONE, PAINT STONE! – stemmed from a chance meeting with a local artist Penny who inspired it – Blog post about her & her stones HERE – and from a need of simply getting off my phone and engaging with the ‘real’ world as much as possible, whilst motivating & inspiring others through it…
THE CHALLENGE:
– Find a stone
– Take it home
– Get into paint zone
– Leave your home
– Place your stone
– For someone else to own
– Good Energy Transfer zone (GET it)
**Colour & positive quotes on stones has been proven to uplift vibes when placed in dead zones by 250%

Feel free to tag your painted stones with #OffPhonePaintStone across socials if you really want to, no worries if not, it’s more about the selfless act of doing something cos a) it’s great for mental health vibes and b) it’s a nice thing leaving your art for someone else to enjoy…

During my walks in the local area, I normally go passed the local church and notice spots of artwork dotted around including a lighting installation with words like LOVE / JOY lighting up the deadness of the night as you walk by.…
Too outdoorsy,
For the indoors,
Catch me sketching,
Pause,
Have a natter or two,
Passing traffic,
E-scooters whizzin’ through,
Fresh air feels,
Magic,
No restrictions here,
Just re-fixed states,
Stop & stare,
Capture moments,
Cos I care.
Popped down Penge on a random one over the weekend, and came across this beautiful 13ft mural of Mimi Fresh (@firemoonfresh) painted by artist Dreph (Neequaye Dsane / @Dreph_). Apparently the mural was part of 10 large scale murals painted across the capital to celebrate extraordinary women doing amazing things in their communities and society as a whole…
Been taking lots of pics recently during my morning walks, then I’d then add abit of life to the shot via Instagram editing, and wallah, we have a PINSta Doodle! It’s about capturing the environment around you and adding your flava to it – been seeing plastic gloves everywhere, so thought i’d smash out some colourful sorts – definitely makes your ‘average walk’ not so average each time you roll out, as you’ll end up constantly looking more intently and seeking the visual IQ in things – have a go yourself…LOOK / SNAP / EDIT BLAM!…
