A moment captured. This is a snapshot of a work in progress. I love manipulating the canvas but also realize the importance of stepping back, letting it breathe and do some of its own work. Watch it change. See it become. This particular piece is going into the bedroom of someone with severe insomnia so I want it be calming, sleepy, transcending and deep. I feel like I’m putting a spell into canvas.

Off to get framed and then to their new home. I’m so happy with how these watercolour pieces turned out. I’ve been having a bit of trouble getting into creative flow recently...perhaps feeling creative burn out...but then you get into that feeling of flow and things just come together. I’m so happy for the opportunity to be able to do what I love.

I’m swamped to my eyeballs with work. But I love it. I’m learning. I’m being humbled. I’m being challenged. I’m picking up new ideas to incorporate into my practice and it feels like pieces are all coming together. This is where I’m supposed to be.

I feel that every place I visit leaves it’s own colour palette on my heart. It’s own essence, an abstract feeling that lets me take a piece of what makes it what it is with me. It’s truly this that I am so grateful for and why traveling is sometimes so bitter sweet.

I often realize when I get home that my palette slightly changes and matches the place that I just visited, it matches the impressions that were left for me to take back with me.

She doesn’t worry about composition, colour palette, what statement her work is making. She does it because it brings her joy and she’s free like a bird doing it. Sometimes I learn more from my daughter than what I could ever teach her ❤️

I often visualize the interiors that my paintings will hang in or the people that will be drawn to them and buy them. The person who will end up with this work is super cool, vibrant, and absolutely living their best life. That’s all. ✌🏻

I was photographing some work outside when I turned around and actually looked the pieces I stocked my courtyard with...how amazing would it be to find a way to make acrylics on canvas completely weather proof? Omg. I think I would die.

Despite my best attempts at giving my kids a peaceful and laidback summer, we still find ourselves in the midst of busy at times. It’s just the way life goes. For us, this is often to do with my husband’s job which is insanely busy so we try to balance this off by being chill and present at home even when a month goes by when we barely get to see him. I haven’t had many opportunities to go work in my studio so in order to stay creative I’ve picked up a medium that allows me to work from home. I wasn’t sure how I would like working with watercolour on paper but I’m absolutely hooked. It’s so incredibly challenging because everything I do is free hand and unlike acrylic on canvas, this medium is so much less forgiving. I’ve been really drawn to projecting a sense of fluidity to my work and I attempt to achieve this through the transparent nature of watercolour as well as adding ink drawings that portray a sense of moment.
