two people are my daily inspiration:
- my man, because he shows me how to be generous and how to work hard with a smile
- his mum (82 years old this year), because she is always herself, honest and proud

Judys Lace Creations said...

What a generous offer Alisa!
I'd have to say a friend- who has battled Cancer, breast reconstruction, Depression, ...I could go on.She's one of the bravest most tenacious person I've ever known. She is now publishing 2 Children's books, and has just completed a 3 year Design Course Degree. Oh and did I say, she has 4 children!
Thank you so much for the chance to win one of your lovely courses.

becslb said...

Several people inspire me but one of the biggest is a close friend and penpal, like me she has a chronic illness and like me she has family who need care even when she needs rest. But she keeps on trying with her art, her degree, everything. A truly inspiring woman! Thanks for the giveaway opportunity :-)

I have to say that the most inspring person I know is a friend who is a working single mother of two who never ever complains about the incredible amount of work that she does every single day, from sun-up to the small hours of the day and is always smiling and pleasant and fun.
I don't know how she does it.

Unknown said...

Hi Alisa,
My husband my daughter and you Alisa. Thank you :)

Terri Paulson-Sasaki said...

My grandmother. She passed away 12 years ago and I still remember her spirit everyday. She was a very hard worker, working before the sun got up until way after the sun went down, never complaining. She used what she had instead of buying new. She was the best hostess, always welcomed everyone into her home. She was a storyteller, the best kind.

This looks like a wonderful class.

jaime said...

Life and nature inspire me. You never know what amazing thing you will see when you turn the corner. It could be mundane or it could blow your mind.

Caranam said...

My mother. I'm well into my 30s, but part of me still wants to grow up to be her.

Le petit monde de Louison said...

Hello Alisa, merci de ce cadeau. Chaque personne autour de moi m'inspire d'une manière différente. Salutions de Montréal :)

Unknown said...

Beautiful! Love the portrait that looks like it started with a blind contour drawing.
I am inspired by fresh air--getting out and clearing my head outdoors does wonders.

wandamarie.blogspot.com said...

so much more than one, and seriously you are in there DEEPLY, for coloring outside the lines ;) and i'll say "people love" especially when it just barely peeks through and I see the little spark and glimmer...YEAH...your love is showing sir/madam! xoxo

My daughter and her daughter....they are two peas in a pod.

Susan said...

My best friend since kindergarten inspires me. She is a single mom that put herself through college and now one of her children is very ill but she still always cares for others and keeps a sense of humor at the same time. I admire her so much! This looks like a wonderful class! I would love to be able to draw faces!

Unknown said...

My son is my inspiration for everything in my life! Everything he does, whetever he goes, he is amazing! I draw the flowers he picks me, paint the landscapes of the places we go together, and I'm amazed at his artwork and the characters he creates. It's inspiring to just watch him grow and evolve, taking the whole world in!

Saundra Lane Galloway said...

I'd have to say that my mother inspires me the most right now in my life. Her wisdom is priceless and her spirit is awesome! She just will not give in to age...she is energetic and is always striving to be a woman of God. My mom rocks!

Jeannine said...

My son - he inspires to laugh and live more and overall just be happier.

Kris said...

My 3 daughters are my inspiration. They make me a better person and I am determined to show them the beauty of our world in all forms.

Unknown said...

I am inspired by my best friend--she has cerebral palsy and also a life threatening, untreatable disease. She has encouraged me to follow my dream to become an artist by joining me on the journey, taking art classes, painting, and creating--despite those all be difficult for her. She is relentless and her strength is inspiring!

Kris said...

Mary said...

My Mom is my biggest inspiration.Her mantra has always been,"Be her now."

Tequitia said...

Right now my one year old daughter! To watch her bravely, explore her world around her is inspiring! I wish I still had a bit of that innocence!

A said...

This is a lovely Spring gift. Thank you Alisa for sharing it with us.
I feel inspired by all the people that have succeed in feeling happy with themselves. This is something I am learning and working on every day.

I have been following your blog for a couple of years now and your path to reaching your goal as a self employed artist is one of the examples that I strive to. Thank you for sharing.

Marty Mason said...

I continue to be inspired by the memory of my grandmother. She toiled day in and day out, yet never lost her zest for life. She made time each day to spread her joy of living what she thought was her good life.

The Library Faerie said...

My 11 month old daughter is my inspiration. I want to be a better person, not just for her sake, but also because of her, if that makes sense. Seeing the world through her eyes as she experiences everything for the first time is pretty amazing! She is already a tiny little independent woman.

PALOMA ACCESSORIES said...

The person that inspires me, is my little girl Paloma.
You to Alisa inspires me to continue to work in my art, Thank you!

Roanfolk said...

I'm so excited you're doing a portrait class! My husband definitely inspires me artistically. In a painting class I took in college I painted him a few times. He's my favorite subject, haha. He inspires me to be a better person and to create art. I'd love to do a decent drawn portrait of us together.

I love that this is a collaboration between you and Andy.

Suman Pandit said...

My dad as he is the most hardworking, creative and positive person I know !!

It's A Wonderful said...

My husband encourages my creativity; he senses my need to pick up a pencil, paintbrush, or piece of fabric. He gets it.

superstitches said...

My husband and my daughters inspire me. They are very special people.

Jana Johnson said...

Ooh, hard to choose --- husband, daughters, friends, family...but for a single person that inspires me, I'd have to say right now, it's my friend Annie --- she's very creative, and we go on photo adventures together and always come home with so much creative energy buzzing between us! Thanks for this opportunity Alisa!

Rachel said...

My partner inspires me the most, we are opposites in many ways and seeing how he tackles things differently from me is very inspiring!

mpezzell said...

my eleven year old daughter, ashlyn. she is the most creative soul i know. she inspires me everyday and pushes me to tap into my own creative soul and not to let go or loose sight of my love for art. she is amazing.

Tonya @ Sprinkle on Glitter said...

The one who inspires me the most isn't actually a person but my dog, roxie. She is so loyal and has the greatest sense of those who are struggling. She may not have the words to say but he ability to just be there speaks volumes and means so much.

Ariadne said...

I am always inspired by my friend Anna (aka InMyCloset) who managed to bring together a whole group of like minded people and organized us (yes me included) to attend crafty workshops in her kitchen for free and make things to learn new crafty techniques or give out things for charity. She has managed to make me believe in myself and my skills in order to try new crafts and I am grateful to her for that. AriadnefromGreece!

Unknown said...

Thanks for the opportunity! My mom is my biggest inspiration!

HOUSE OF MIXER said...

You are one of my biggest inspirations! I create designs and paintings with similar color schemes as you. When I found your website I was shocked that someone else thinks like me. You have done souch with your talent and time, it's very inspiring and encouraging. I love seeing what you create and how your daughter also is part of your process. I'm not sure what my creative future has in store, but you have helped challenge, motivate, and inspire me, so THANK YOU!!!!��������☔️��☕️��������������☺️

HOUSE OF MIXER said...

The question marks that appear in my text were suppose to be cute little graphics😔

caronolia said...

I,m inpired by artist like you who never let me give up of my dreams...

Sandy said...

I get inspired by color,texture, and sound. I love the sound of crunch paper, tires on gravel, and keys on a keyboard.

Moois van mie said...

I don't have someone who inspires me most. There are a lot of people around me who inspire me.

sts2000 said...

I don't think that I could just name one person - but definitely my husband and sons inspire me daily.

Thanks!

Unknown said...

My parents. My dad has been battling lung cancer for the past 3 years, and my mom has been by his side the entire time. They inspire me with the love and commitment they give not only to each other, but to their family as well. It proves that love endures all!

genji said...

My pen pal, who is an artist. She tries to get me to do artistic endeavors, though my science brain scratches itself :)

Özge Başağaç said...

Can i count my beloved cat as the "person" who inspires me everyday?

Haley said...

ooh, great class! I'm inspired by my man. He always has a different perspective, gives great constructive criticism, and always encourages me to create.

medina family said...

Hard to pick, but I think my good friend, Kim, inspires me a lot. She's a great mom, always planning fun and creative things to do, cooks great meals for her family, and gives out encouraging words.

Melanie Jade said...

My mom has been my biggest inspiration. She has always taught me that I can do anything I put my mind to. She is strong, wise, loving, compassionate...a brave, wonderful woman and best friend.

There are days I'm not sure I'm going to make it to old age, but even then my 3.5 year old son inspires me the most. It's amazing to see life through his eyes.

Bonnie-Britt said...

My father taught me how to appreciate the little things in life and I am really grateful to him for that, because my life is filled with those little things that really make me happy. Thanks Dad !

Unknown said...

Thank you for this opportunity! Looks like a great class to take!

Mindy Lou Hagan said...

I absolutely love stopping by your site. Art wise, you are definitely one of my biggest inspirational artists. ;) As far as who inspires me the most, it would probably be my 4 year old niece. Watching her grow and learn and change is such an amazing thing and I am so grateful to get to be a big part of her life. Her imagination always surprises me and reminds me that life can be so much fun.

kruthika said...

My dad has been my biggest source of inspiration. He is someone who never quits until he achieves his target. I love his attitude and how hard working he is to achieve his goals. My second best inspiration is my best friend who has been cheerful even in toughest times. I love her chilled out attitude and that I think is something I am trying to develop to live life happy :)

FEFA said...

My mom inspires me every day. I am very grateful for having her as my mom.

Unknown said...

I would say my friend Trish because of her solid faith in Christ. She is also very creative and makes beautiful cards that she gives to encourage others.

LoveLaughCollage said...

My Mum is always there for me, willing to support and forever selfless. She is the strongest, most compassionate person I know and will always be my best friend.

Victoria said...

Right now the person who inspires me most is this wonderful child #DStrong, such a sad story about a brave little boy,Dorian Murray.

Kashuen said...

My husband is the one inspired me the most. He is a life-long self taught learner. He does not bound by what people think and what is his limit. He is not an artist, but his lifestyle is very artistic in my opinion. And that changed my point of view about life.

Pat said...

Hmmm, so many people in my life inspire and encourage me to go higher, but I guess the one who touches my heart the most would be my son Jonathan. He has Asperger's and yet has managed to overcome his disabilities and succeed in life! AND he puts up with all my 'Shenanigans'!!

Stephanie said...

The kids I teach

Vivyane Veka said...

Thank you Alisa for this giveaway !
The person that inspires me right now is my youngest daughter :)

Lindsay said...

This class looks wonderful! I'd have to say that my two little babes inspire me the most. My five year old daughter is always sitting at the table making art with me and says things like "Mama, I think you are going to be an artist when you grow up" which keeps me motivated to practice and learn more everyday. We both have benefitted from your posts about creating art with little ones, they are my favorite! And as a fellow Oregonian, I am loving all the adventure posts as well.

Kelly C. said...

My grandma inspires me! She taught me everything I know about living a creative life.

Unknown said...

Love your classes Alisa! I'm inspired by my husband because he always sees the glass half full.

Casey said...

I'm so inspired by my sister! She keeps going even when it's difficult. Her strength, love, and kindness always reminds me of how I want to live.

i seriously tried to just think of one person that i am inspired by but it is seriously too hard...i see inspiration everywhere...in everyone.

including your blog.
this class looks amazing!

Cathe P. said...

Alisa, The person who inspires me the most creatively is really you. The woman who inspires me the most in life is my adopted Mom, who is 85. She is amazing. She took care of her husband with Alzheimers for 10 years with a smile on her face and love in her heart for him daily. Besides being an extremely accomplished woman, she has a heart of gold and would give you the shirt off her back. She is an absolute joy to be around and so much fun, too.

My mother in law is my biggest inspiration. She is beautiful both inside and out!!

Has to be hubby and daughter - both my biggest cheerleaders, full of inspiration, whimsy, and encouragement.

Ivy said...

I'm inspired by my Aunt. She lost her son when he was 16 and she managed to make the tragedy an inspiring story.

KarenS said...

I'm inspired by my father in law. He is 100 years old and refuses to give up through many illnesses and injuries. Sometimes I think he'll outlive all of us!

ronee said...

It is my Dad that inspires me, he inspires me in so many ways, but most importantly, he instills in me to Be Myself.
I would love your class in portraiture.

Chimica Espinosa said...

I'm inspired by my late grandmother. She was the strongest women in my family . She was able to do everything she set her mind to even though there were tons of struggles in her way. When I'm having a hard day or am feeling depressed I remember her determination to keep going and never quit no matter what people told her no matter what obstacles got in her way and no matter how tired she was. She kept moving forward and kept her eyes on making a great home for her family. She died of Alzheimer March 14th 2014 leaving behind 2 children, a grand daughter, a great grandson and a future great grand daughter that was born April 7th 2014. I know that she blesses our family daily but just thinking about her still can bring tears to my eyes.

Marie Zazvorkova said...

Difficult to choose just one person, but one of these most inspiring people is surely my little daughter, open, fearless to experiment, enjoying the moment...Thank you for the giveaway.

Cathy said...

Today my hero is my friend Jessica. She had a life threatening yet life saving surgery last spring. Her looks have been drastically changed, she has suffered pain and complications yet continues to show up everyday, laugh and smile and see the funny in life. I was sent an email today that showed Piglet and Pooh walking thru the woods together, Pooh looks down to Piglet and asks "what day is it?" Piglet replies, "it is today." And Pooh replies " my favorite day". And so this is what my sweet friend reminds me.

parkesphoto said...

My inspiration is my mom. She is such a wonder person. She is kind to eveyone. She's humble and sweet. Mari

My inspiration comes from my dog, yes my dog. She is carefree and willing to try anything, yet is loyally devoted at the same time. She knows exactly what she likes and is always willing to play.

Thanks for Sharing. I'll definately Naturaful visit again! Ive bookmarked your blog, informative read Thats some quality basics there, already know some of that, but you can always learn . I doubt a “kid” could put together such information as dolphin278 suggested. For more ==== >>>>>> http://www.healthsupreviews.com/naturaful/

mls said...

My mom. When I was a kid I would watch her draw women figures with colored pencils and was in awe with her talent. She is where I get my love of art.

leonbrick said...

My husband. He's generous and compassionate and I've learned so much from him, still have a ways to go :)

Anonymous said...

My hubby, he is an artist and always encourages me to try new things and be happy with my own crafty projects.

Joan Princing Art said...

My daughter! She is my pride and joy and I respect her so much!

Deanna said...

Without a doubt my husband. He inspires me every day. We are celebrating our 30th anniversary in June and I am so grateful to have him in my life.

mary said...

My mom, she's had a really tough life. Since she was twenty she had to take care of her mom and husband, who were both dealing with serious illnesses, and 2 children (my brother and I) who she eventually had to bring up alone since my father passed away. She's had no help whatsoever from neither her toxic family or my father's family who was even more toxic if possible, and now in her fifties she went back to University and she's rockin' it, all the while still juggling work and home. I don't know how she does it or where she still finds the energy after all she's been through. Amazing woman.

marjolijn said...

Looks great! I just started an art journaling book for faces. I will keep my fingers crossed!

Virginia said...

My Mum is probably my biggest inspiration, having fought breast cancer twice, dealt with the death of her husband (my Dad) when she was only 39 and raised three children after he passed away. She is always positive and upbeat and enjoys and loves each and every single day!

Tammy said...

My fraternal Grandmother is my inspiration. I really had to think about who and why. She's the most honest, tried and true person I know. She speaks her mind and doesn't skirt around issues. I look to her as a person who doesn't follow the path, instead carves out her own unapologetically. I hope to bravely follow in her footsteps.

Unknown said...

My friend, Hong Juei. She is my biggest inspiration. She has a magic in her, she fulfills all what she wanted in her life without fear.

Hurray! A giveaway! Thank you Alisa.
My 8 year old grandaughter is home schooled and comes to me each Wednesday. The way she looks at the world and her enquiring creativity inspires me hugely! I sometimes write about what we do on my blog www.daffodilwild.wordpress.com.
Have a happy day! 😄

Rita Montgomery said...

My husband is my greatest inspiration. He has survived heart surgery, cancer, arthritis and diabetes and is one of the most positive people I know. I love him so.

My son is my light, inspires and gives life to every day of my life. But artistically no doubt that you Alisa, you are the person that most inspires me.

Thank you for having entered my life!

Cecile said...

Thank you for this opportunity Alisa! I'm learning to draw and would love to practice portraits! I'm inspired by the people I meet and connect with while traveling around the world, so far I've met the most wonderful people and am super grateful for that! One day I'll be able to draw them :) !

Bonnie P said...

My 5-year old daughter because she is so brave with her art and hasn't yet developed an inner critic to hold her back. And when I start to criticize my own work, she immediately steps in and encourages me.

My girl squad inspires me all the time. How hard they all work and how different they all are, I thrive off their inspiration and their encouragement. They're some of my biggest cheerleaders and so necessary for me to fucntion on a daily basis.

I had trouble posting my comment yesterday and now I cannot find my comment so I think it never got posted..don't know if it is too late! My daughter inspires me. She is artistic and writes so well..she inspired me to look and find the creative living inside me I didn't even know I had. It opened up a whole new world to me.

My mom....she called her children her jewels. She always treated each us as if we were the most important person in the world. I always felt loved and special when I was with her.

I may be too late to enter for the free class but.....my husband inspires me the most. He cheers me on and this feeds my creative soul.

I would have to say that right now my wife inspires me the most - she encourages me to do the best I can and to follow my dreams.

My daughter inspires me. She's always had her own sense of style, no matter what everyone else is doing. Even as a 15 year old, she's still confident in who she is. Love her outlook!

Winners announced and like always in nearly every online giveaway white people are chosen. Society will never change their outlook on how they see ethnic names will they?

People who live life to the fullest despite setbacks or hardships are always the best inspiration for me.

The person that inspires me the most is my friend, a vinyl record store owner. He is responsible for many of my art sprints and urges to create. He doesn't even know how much. Music is a big source of creative energy fo me. The beat helps me with my mark makings, melody inspires me moods and colors and music videos give me la lot of subject matter.
