Hey Everyone!
It has been quiet over here this spring and summer so I thought I'd pop in and say Hello!
You may or may not know that my sister underwent a major surgery a few months ago and I have been spending a lot of time with her while she heals. She is doing so well and I'm so proud of her!
I haven't been doing much as far as collaging goes but I recently picked up oil pastels again and I've been having fun playing with them and discovering my style. I've mostly been drawing abstract ish portraits of people I'm drawn to and inspired by that I see in real life, TV shows, and social media. I will try to share some pictures soon!
Last summer I bought a type writer at an estate sale and I finally pulled it out and now I feel inspired to write constantly, even if it's just a paragraph a day. I can't be poetic and contemplative everyday so often it's just a recap of the days events as simple as they may be. The little things in life are what I want to remember most anyway.
My husband and I recently celebrated our 16th wedding anniversary and soon I will celebrate my 39th birthday.
Wow. Also. How?!
I made a list of goals for myself to work towards before my 40th birthday in an attempt to further reduce my time scrolling and to encourage me to continue to do more of what I love: art, reading, writing, moving my body and spending time with my little family.
One goal of mine is to rebrand and make some changes here so stayed tuned for that but don't hold your breath for it because I am not tech savvy and I think I need a life coach for everything else. Is anyone available? (only kind of kidding. halp.)
I don't really have it all together all the time. Maybe 7% of the time.
The rest of the 93% of my life is filled with mysterious distractions and dog snuggles.
I'm considering having another art auction soon. Thoughts?
How is your summer going? I want to hear about it!
