Affirmations by Catherine Darling Hostetter - Positive Affirmation Cards for Daily Motivation & Self-Improvement | Perfect for Meditation, Journaling, and Personal Growth

In the 1980’s affirmations became very popular among people wanting to better the way they think of themselves. Although they actually have been around for over a hundred years, it has become a very familiar term recently. People put their affirmations on their mirrors, vision boards and places that they might see them daily.

In my painting AffirMEtions, I wanted to illustrate a motivating whimsical display of positive thoughts that a young person -or anyone -would benefit from (like my granddaughter). I believe that when we choose our personal affirmations, they come from our heart, things that we already are - deep down. Reading them everyday brings them to the surface, and becomes our AffirMEtions.
