✨ I TOOK A BREAK ✨

It’s been over a month since my last post on all my socials and it was break I reaaaaally needed. It was a time to rest, a time to detox and make sure that my habits on socials were not getting in the way of me living life to the max, and a time to prioritise some other things that were happening irl.

I’m coming back to it super tentatively hoping to get back in the swing of things but I honestly feel like a novice all over again. And while the algorithm might hate me for taking so long, I don’t regret taking the time to rest and focus on my mental health.

If there are any artists or creators out there who have gone through a similar thing or have any tips or tricks to healthily dive back into socials, please let me know!

So I’m not quite sure this turned out as good as the last one but I still had so much fun illustrating all over my photo! I used the colours in my jungle wrap dress to extend out into my illustration.

I don’t think I’ll really get over the cringe of taking photos of myself or seeing my smug mug on my iPad as I’m drawing 😂 but I’ll have to get over it at some point I guess!

If anyone is looking to have one done for themselves please shoot me with a DM!

My Jungle Wrap Dress is still available in my shop! www.powerofwomen.io/shop

You can’t go to Oslo without going to the Munch museum! And while everyone usually scrambles to see the Scream (which I must admit was pretty spectacular) I was drawn to his full body portraits. I was obsessed by the brushstrokes, the powerful and casual poses and just the full sizeness of each of the paintings. My only problem with them was they were all male portraits with no female figures in sight.

So I decided to attempt my own version with a female figure! Using visible brushstrokes is not my usual illustration style but I’m liking this first attempt. Might try a few more of these and see if I can master that textured brushstroke look 🤌

Pretending to be a model and a photographer just so I can illustrate all over my pics and create this moody piece ✨

I have been obsessed with how illustrators are drawing all over magazine covers and editorial fashion photography to create this awesome collage of photography and illustration!

I decided to try this out for myself and since I had my own fashion line ready to go, wouldn’t this be a great opportunity to model my garments and create a kick ass artwork out of it!? Yupppp

I’m by no means a pro at self portraits on the iPhone so if anyone has any photography, editing or illustration tips for this kind of combo artwork, please let me know! 🫶

A few new items in my POW shop! 👀

Just over a week ago I had my first ever art & fashion stall and decided to add a few new products to my stall. After a frantic couple of days of designing, I had 5 new items in my shop. While they may be the cheapest products, they were also the most popular!

I think I might be obsessed with them all! The textured feel of the notebooks, cards and bookmarks are so sublime and earthy. And I’m so proud of all of them! What do you think?

Painted Bucket Hat 🌸

My mate looking 🔥 in my painted bucket hat!

Ever since I found out that I could paint denim with acrylic paint and fabric medium, I have been dying to try this out! But before I ruined my favourite pair of jeans, it seemed like a good idea to try something small first!

Bucket hats seemed to be such a trend especially in the festival circuit where the crazier the outfit the more you fit in! So this was such a great project to start my denim painting journey!

How would you rate my first go? 👀

Twinning with Helen O’Hara! 💃

I had such a fantastic time watching Helen (my mother-in-law and violinist extraordinaire) perform with at the Tim Peaks stage at last week!

Helen has always been a massive supporter of my work over the years and it’s been so humbling to see her wear my POW shirts at all her gigs this year!
