I feel like I’ve been in a creative slump for a bit. Those happen, it’s fine. When coming out of my slump, I often start 5 projects at the same time. Anyway, here’s an older thing to look at until I finish at least one of the new things

- you are not free - Been trying to paint my feelings on the current state of society. Genocide, ecocide, fascism, loss of community. It doesn’t end. I’m chronically overwhelmed. I’ll share the ugly results anyway. Creation is rebellion. None of us are free until all of us are free #art #painting

Finally finished this one! I wanted something that symbolised that everyone has in them both predator and prey, and wanted it to be viewable from all sides #art #embroidery

Made this painting about 2 yrs ago after having a serious fallback in mental health. I hadn’t really painted for a long time before this one. I’m still grateful the paint was there for me in that dark time. It helped me cope and heal. Never underestimate the power of a creative outlet #art #painting

A reminder that we are never really as weak as we feel. On top of that, there is strength in numbers. I’ll be joining a peaceful protest this Sunday, I hope many others do as well. Nothing is lost until we let it be. Stay safe, stay sane #art #painting #resist

I’ve been really struggling with everything going on in the world… Decided to spend my evening trying to catch a breath, so I can keep my mental health in check enough to stay present with the challenges ahead. Stay safe, my friends, and stay sane x

Tried to paint about how my current medical situation feels both physically and mentally. Kinda think it looks like shit, but that seems oddly fitting #art #painting

Went to see some live music and went home to paint. Not sure I like it, but hey, I made a thing and that’s always a win! #art #painting

Some days my soul just feels like a broken mess of sad and hurt. On those days, I try to paint. Rubbing the paint around on the canvas feels like applying ointment to the mental bruise #art #painting

- All is well - A reflection on how people often assume all is well because someone looks good / stable / healthy on the surface. Not all demons or health struggles are visible at first glance. Try to imagine people complexly, believe them when they speak up. #art #painting

A ‘low waste’ sticker I made a while back by turning an old coaster into a printing block. I use the leftover paint from my rollers for the background colour. #art #sticker #printing

Made this little duo a while back. They represent the ghost of myself I felt I had become, and the thing that got me there. I am grateful that I got through and no longer feel like that ghost most days #art #painting

I like trying to say a lot with just a few lines. Many people seem to enjoy saying very little with a lot of words. It kinda annoys me #art #painting

- Evermore - a rumination on the feeling of having a permanent murder of crows in my head tearing at the seams, telling me this pain will be for evermore. Would have preferred ravens saying nevermore but oh well #art #painting

A somewhat older ‘quick and dirty’. It’s another plea for more kindness in the world. In hard times, daring to be soft is an act of rebellion #art #painting

-I really tried to be a good girl- As queer rights are under attack in so many places right now, I thought I’d share a painting I did trying to express how I feel like I fail to fit into both my assigned as my actual gender as a nonbinary person dumped into a hyper feminine body. #art #painting

Did this one about how the trauma from severe abuse can linger in every fibre of your body, even years after the abuser is gone

- Do you like my human suit? - Painted this as a musing on masking and trying to please others, and how in the end that’s detrimental to a healthy sense of self #art #painting

I sometimes like to make what I call ‘quick and dirty’ prints, mostly when I want to just get something out of my system fast. Made this one about a year ago, and now recently used it as inspiration for an embroidered patch #art #embroidery

- there is fire still - Painted this as a reminder to self that even if you get tired and weighed down in troubling times, your fire is still there even if it momentarily doesn’t seem that way. Vibe of the day, but tomorrow we can pick ourselves up #art #painting
