Art by Jen Mann

Today I wanted to share with you some of the incredible artwork by Jen Mann. Jen is a 27-year old from Toronto, Ontario, who is so magnificently talented. Her works are oil on canvas, and are so lifelike! I love her use of colors - her work is so vibrant. Here are some of my favorite works from her online gallery.

Crafty Saturday #36

After posting just two weeks ago about how I have been struggling to find DIY and craft ideas that inspire me, I seem to have had a complete change in luck. Perhaps I was just not coming across the right blogs, but I keep finding projects that I love. Hope you think these ideas are as great as I do...happy Saturday! x

Clean Green Vegan

After spending the past two weeks very sick in bed, I decided that I would start to look into my diet to see what I can change in order to eat healthier and stay healthier. I'm already a vegan and have been for over two years now, but I feel that diet and nutrition is an area that can always use improvement. I don't have any concerns about my weight - my goal is to maintain my current weight, but I just think that by incorporating even more fresh fruits and vegetables into my diet, I can become even healthier.
In order to serve as a source for healthy food ideas and motivation (and some exercise, especially ballet and yoga), I decided to start yet another Tumblr (yes, I'm addicted). I would love if you checked it out and let me know what you thought!: cleangreenvegan.tumblr.com
