You're probably wondering...

...what my focus word is for 2017, right?

These reminders are  going to be EVERYWHERE!

Each one sports a feather, so the lesson is light and easy.

Rich, isn't it?

I love the beauty of this organic leaf and feather combination.

Orange and red has a LOT of punch.

Like a flower, opening is filled with grace.

It's possible books might be involved.

I love the word opening; it speaks to me of new possibilities, travel, creativity, abundance, gifts and gratitude flowing into and through my life.  It is filled with the awareness, understanding and discernment I welcome for 2017.

Have you chosen your 2017 focus word yet?  I'd love to see it in the comments below.

  2. My first thought was "What is Win opening now?" But I see it is your mind, your creativity, your expectations and your world that you will be opening - a great word for any one but especially for an artist. All the Best for 2017 Win.

  3. Dear Win Dinn just had to stop by to wish you a wonderful colorful and very Happy Christmas. I know your 2017 will be spectacular because you won't settle for anything less, as you fashion your feathers into wings to fly a little higher. I wish you all the best in the coming year and I am off to find a feather and decide on a focus word, I will let you know how it turns out.

  4. My word for 2017 is 'happy'. I have regular bouts of not feeling too great and hope I can change that in 2017 ! I like your word too; it is full of possibility ! Happy New Year !

    To make progress. And a reminder to keep my head out of the way, as I tend to overthink when I'm creating.

  9. Great word, Win! Great art, Win! My word this year will be "acceptance." I need to work on this both in my creativity and in my relationships-- and that includes my relationship with me! It's going to be a tough year, but certainly a valuable one. Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to you, my friend!

    1. What a beautifully Zen word acceptance is, Kay, and especially when it applies to relationships! I suspect that your year will be a better one than you expect because of your choice! Wishing you and yours all the best of the season. xo

  12. Hi Win! Hoping you are having a wonderful holiday and all the best to you and yours for an amazing and creative new year to come. I have not chosen a focus word for 2017. As a matter of fact, I had not even thought about a focus word...but now...now I am wondering what the perfect focus word for me will be. I still have a few days to figure it out. Thanks for the inspiration!

    1. I worked backwards, Jackie, contemplating what I wished for in my life, and gradually working towards the word that expressed that in its fullness. Do keep me posted on what you've decided, and I'll hold that in mind when I think of you. Thanks so much for visiting and commenting here so consistently in 2016...you're an inspiration, as always! xo
