I used to have a tattoo that said “All Life Is An Experiment” – it was easier to believe this when I was eighteen (Week 2)
I went through that terrible period of counting likes, followers, comparing how fast a fellow artist grew, I followed artists in secret, sometimes bitterly. I posted and waited. Like the teenage girl who posts a selfie and gets no likes, the heart sank. I always told myself: grow up!” – Luisa Fernanda Here is a […]

Doing All The Things (Week 1)
So last week was the first week of taking my art more “seriously” and you know what? I had a really really good week. I was happy. I felt inspired & productive & I was teaching myself all the things. I planned to just work in pen. Then I started working in graphite. Then I […]

First Attempts At Drawing With Charcoal
Lately, as I have put more & more focus on my creative practice, I have been hungry to try new mediums. This time I tried charcoal. I hope you enjoy this little video of my first attempts at charcoal drawing – I’ve been having a lot of fun with them – both the charcoal & […]

My At Home Artist Studio Tour
I am lucky enough to have a room in our home that I can use as my artist studio. I’ve put a solid amount of effort into painting, organizing & decorating it so that it is a place that makes me feel inspired & ready to create. In my strong opinion, plants are an utter […]

MOONGLOW (SERIES IN PROGRESS)
These are some watercolor paintings from a series called Moonglow that is currently an ongoing body of work I am creating & adding to. I’ve had a lot of fun playing with the colors in this series – they are my current favorites of the watercolors pigments I have in my studio.

Lady Winter
I just love this video so much, especially the dancing elements. I think it’s entirely stunning. I had this song on repeat for quite some time late last year.

MARIE-NOËLLE WURM
I have a major crush on Marie-Noelle’s style. I’ve been very lucky to have her as a watercolor instructor for a time. I sent some of these pieces to my art mentor (this was one of my assignments this week) to give him an idea of styles I like & what I want to be […]

Five True Things
I have left the house twice in the past ten days. The anxiety has become such a beast (and not a “beautiful” one like that stupid ass book says) that I’ve been having to take my Klonopin first thing in the morning with the rest of my morning pills. I used to be able to […]

VLOG | January 14 2022
I thought I’d try filming a little vlog since I haven’t posted much on here lately. I want to start doing it more often again – I feel better when I do. Today is the next day & I am feeling a little bit garbage (sore throat, coughing getting worse, sinus shit, chest congestion) so […]

It’s Been A While – So Here Are Some Little Updates
The blog post I was talking about in the video can be found here. For the art journal, I am using The Mad Woman’s Underclothes by Germaine Greer because a blank new book felt like it would be too intimidating & I wasn’t (in reality) going to ever actually read that book. As for the […]

An Artist Kind of Person
Winter is hard on me, sometimes even brutal. It is usually a season of hibernating in depression, wishing I hadn’t taken all of the daylight I had available a few months ago for such granted. But I’ve been feeling a strong desire to create again after Marie-Noelle Wurm shared this video with me a week […]

From The Plant Womb
Some new plant babies, some brought inside as the weather outside becomes colder & some of my plant ceiling mentioned in the I Turned Thirty & post. More to come…

Skinscapes
Skinscapes is a photography series of mine that explores the landscapes that are our bodies & the ways our experiences create maps on our flesh, allowing it to tell some of our stories.
