Day 5/7 (biggest obstacle you’ve overcome) of .co ‘s make art + be art challenge.
My biggest obstacle recently has been to just begin. To push on when my fear and discomfort show up. And it usually shows up. I think It shows up for everyone. It says “you’ll f**k it up” or that you’re somehow “unqualified to paint this or say that.” It happens a lot in areas other than just art now, but It’s seems funny when I think about it because I’ve seen this before in drawing.
You see, your eye always learns before you hand. You’re gonna see all your mistakes before you can improve them, so you can improve them. Because you are improving! You’re gonna always find new flaws to fix! This is a fact of human nature. It doesn’t mean you’re worth any less. Tonight I am reminding myself of this fact on a day where I know I could’ve done more. I’m choosing to let this epiphany empower me instead of terrify me.
It just made perfect sense to post this ocean painting because it’s the biggest painting I’ve ever done, the painting that taught me oceans. It took 6 months. This painting was an obstacle most of the time I was creating it, but one that I’m extremely proud of figuring out. One of my proudest moment was completing this. I felt fear and doubt and painted over it again and again. There’s a heaviness in the looking lighting and storm brewing in the corner. The water is tumultuous. This painting reminds me to keep showing up.

Day 3/7 (Inspiration) of .co ‘s make are + be art challenge! 💗
What inspires me? Hmm. Plants, crystals, tarot, astrology, sadness, joy, music, femininity, outer space, basically anything! I think for me inspiration is something I’ve developed a surplus of over time by constantly sowing seeds of it, working over it patiently. Now I have a full garden I can pick from at anytime. Here’s how I do this:
Start small. Take one interest at a time. Don’t worry about making it all perfect and complex. It’s just your job to explore. Curiosity is key. For instance, I’m working on lots of crystal paintings for my collection launch on the 18th (shameless self promo 😉) and now those crystals have become more intricate and in weird sizes and with cool add ins and Inspirational hits. but! I started by just drawing a ton of crystals in the most simple form! Invested time into practicing them! I saved my favorite pictures of them. Bought crystals to surround myself with. And slowly I improved and I was able to add other ideas a build a library of “inspirations” to create a more complex body of work. They never start perfect, and however inspired I may be, it is never void of WORK. This is how I learned anything else from oceans, to flowers, to portraits.
Inspiration is that *ding* deep in your spirit. It’s when you see your favorite color. When you listen to your favorite band. It’s your center lighting up as to say “this reminds me I have so much to say! This reminds me who I am!” But inspiration tends to die out when we suffocate it. Make it about being perfect. When we abandon It, procrastinate It. Inspiration is like a seed that has to be tended to to grow. Inspiration gets better the more we sit with it especially when it feels like it’s not translating right.

💀 I’ve always loved the combo of something super feminine and sweet with something super aggressive and dark... like a bright pink skull! I used to think being girly made me weak. Nope, I’m powerful af! This painting is like those two sides of me coming together and a reminder that I can be both. And both are amazing.💗
