For my mother.

Blue💙🦋🐬🐳her favourite colour.
Like the ocean: deep, mysterious, endless.
She can be a tsunami, a crashing wave, or a gentle breeze.

The ocean heals. Like her.
Tireless. Ever-changing.
Cleansing, powerful, and soft all at once.
Guided always by the moon 🌊🌙 ✨ happy full moon mumma bear 🌕

Another 🏗️ work. in. progress.
This is my favourite stage — the underpainting, the “undergarments.”

The most fun because here, mistakes are allowed.
This is where intuition leads, layers build, and nothing is final yet❤️‍🩹🫰🏽🥰🫡

Your tears are golden. Acrylic on canvas 8x8. Finally getting back into freestyle painting, this one was over an hour. I didn’t know what I wanted to paint but I was feeling the need to express something. As I paint the meaning of the painting reveals itself in each decision. Even when we cry we still hold so much power, we shouldn’t feel weak or ashamed, we should give ourselves love, be kind to ourselves especially in these moments. Your tears are golden and powerful, you are powerful💜✨🌦️🕉️

Art and word dump.

This year has been so full on with starting my first year at art school, 1 planned and 2 unexpected surgeries for my jaw, moving into my first house with my boyfriend, loosing a family member, other family members having health issues, getting back into team sports and basically burning myself out mentally and physically by putting too much on my plate😅

With that being said, I’m making an effort to slow life down and enjoy the journey more. Full time work and study was way too much for me this year, while I love studying art and creating I had no time for my passion projects. I still intend to finish my degree, just at a slower pace and whether that means taking a break for a semester or just doing a few units at a time if that’s what it will take.

Basically I’m putting this out there because I have been feeling SO guilty about this for absolutely no reason 😂 I’ve always known I need to make my mental health a priority but the last few months I’ve let that slip and just completely allowed my intrusive thoughts and depression to take over and isolate myself.

Luckily with support I’ve got help and finally found a doctor that listens to my needs. My art helps me immensely with me ptsd symptoms and I’m feeling a whole of a lot better moving forward with this plan in place. (Ty if you made it this far 🫶🏽 Thankyou for listening xx )

My absolute truest happy place, getting messy, trusting myself, trusting the process, practicing new techniques, pushing myself mentally (and physically rip my back). I love the serenity and stillness that occurs when I pick up a brush and the way painting has become a form of meditation and therapy for me. I love the feeling of accomplishment after stepping back from a snap canvas that I have been staring at for hours. I’m so grateful to learn at this young age that art and painting is my passion, wherever life takes me I know I will be whole and complete as long as I am still creating☀️ (this painting isn’t complete yet but it’s still beautiful and I wanted to share)
