The other day I hiked the most insanely beautiful 8 mile trail in the greater Northern Cascades National Park! I'm simply blown away by the beauty of Washington state. The views around every corner were simply stunning.

Here are some of my favorite photos I took using my Nikon Z6iii ~ although I love painting, I'm also obsessed with photography as well.

My knees are totally shot now, haha!

Ahhh! I love it when people use my art as inspiration and get it tattooed! 😄

A few months ago I met a fan at a convention who asked me if I would be cool with them using two of my paintings as inspiration to get their own unique tattoo ~ of course I said yes!

I think this one turned out so cute. They used the tiny pink dragons from my "Strawberry Daydream" piece, along with the potion bottle and crystals from my "Amanita Muscaria" painting.

October is Domestic Abuse Awareness Month ~ 9 years ago I left my abuser, but the scars will last a lifetime.

TW; Long post ahead:

This is a hard topic for me to touch on. When I was 17 I was in a very bad place. I met a boy who gave me more attention than I had ever received from anyone else. I immediately fell for him.

During the first year of dating, there were some major red flags but I was too inexperienced to understand what was to come. He was my first relationship.

The first time he str@ngled me, it was in my childhood bedroom. He cried and told me he would never do it again. I believed him.

Over the year's it would just progressively get worse. He would threaten me, my family, or himself with violence anytime I tried or told him I was leaving. He be@t me and hit me, he told me I was useless, a piece of sh*t, and so many other horrible things. My self confidence reduced to zero. I felt like it was my fault. If I just changed myself again and again, eventually the abuse would stop, right?

Wrong.

No matter what I did, it didn't matter. I thought I could fix him, or change him. I thought it was all my fault all the time. My parents tried to help but I kept pushing them away because I was so scared for my life and theirs. He would call hundreds and hundreds of times, taunting me and my family; Threatening us to the point we had to disconnect our phone lines.

In September of 2017 he almost k!lled me. He punched me repeatedly in the head until I almost blacked out. I was bleeding from my mouth and screaming for help. His parents were in the next room and didn't even care. I finally had the strength to leave a week or so later, after he was almost 302'ed by the hospital.

In December of that year I finally broke it off for good but I still fear him to this day. He has tried to contact me multiple times throughout the years, with the latest one being January of 2025.

My life has significantly improved since I left. I often wonder if I'd even be here if I hadn't left when I did. All the slides above are real things people have said to me after I left. I've been shamed for not leaving sooner, but leaving is the hardest part.

If you need help or are suffering yourself, please do not be afraid to find help. 9 years later and I'm in a very loving relationship with my now boyfriend, Seth. He has truly showed me what a normal, healthy relationship should look like and I am eternally grateful for him. 💜

"Metamorphosis" 🦋 My newest gouache painting.

I've been going through my own metamorphosis this year, attempting to learn and understand/accept my own mind, feelings, and mental health struggles. It's been tough. I didn't paint anything for most of the summer because of this.

Even though this is a more simplistic gouache painting than my usual, I'm proud to have completed something. My last completed painting was from March of this year. I struggled for months to get my motivation back. This is also my first landscape oriented painting in many years.

I loved the idea of doing something so colorful even when my mind was dark. This little Luna Moth kitten gave me hope. She might even make it into plush form soon. 🥰

If this post gets 1,000 likes in the next 12 hours I will post a brand new gouache painting tomorrow that I've been working on since May.
