The Abstract Collection will je available in just a couple of hours! Noon, eastern time. 💫⚡️✨⁣
⁣
Each piece was created as a form of creative rejuvenation, rest, and celebration. Never has the PROCESS of creating felt as sweet, needed, and nourishing as it has this year. During the most intense of weeks I often found myself sitting quietly in my living-room-studio (a table in the corner ☺️) mixing and painting on small bits of paper while the chaos continued to swirl around me. ⁣
I painted as an act of rebellion.⁣
I painted as a meditation.⁣
I painted to remind myself that beauty matters to me deeply.⁣
I painted as a metaphor for freedom.⁣
I painted as an invitation for my heart to quiet and my mind to rest. ⁣
⁣
“Welcome to the process. Welcome to the process. Welcome. I belong here. I am not made of thumbs. Dancing is for all of us, not just the ballerinas.” ⁣
 As this collection came together, a few themes emerged:  the wild beauty of nature, peace, energy, childhood, dancing, freedom, JOY.⁣
⁣
Each piece is woven together with the words of a pseudo-poem. Visit the preview now.

I painted some of the pieces in the upcoming abstract collection months ago. Some last week. Some today. They were (are) a form of meditation and therapy for me while creating and teaching Making Art Work, while doing the dishes and homeschooling, planting gardens, creating websites, recording podcasts... life is never tidy, is it?⁣
⁣
I rather like this rhythm. Painting, considering, chasing a kid around the yard, making dinner, editing photos, planning a retreat, mixing some paint, picking some flowers, a pile of laundry, finding connections between it all, trying to hold it all together, falling in with it all... ⁣☺️ I’m having some fun with this collection. Each piece in the collection is woven together with lines of a poem — their titles stringing together into another kind of art. I’m telling you guys, I’m loving all of this so, so much. ⁣

SEPTEMBER 19th at noon est

I made a big announcement last week (abstract artwork collection releasing September 19th at noon! 💫) but I didn’t tell you that there will *also* be abstract OIL PAINTINGS! These pieces are deeply I spited by my painting palettes, but in fine art format. 😍 I am Sooo excited but this new work and this collection is growing every day. Mama is on a roll!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Each and every painting brings a fresh light and joy to my heart and I cannot wait to share that with you!

SEPTEMBER 19th 🎨💫

I see you from across the gallery; glowing and elegant with the last of childhood dancing around you like a thousand joyous spirits. ⁣
You are listening to it all with your big eyes and whole heart, letting life flow through you and calling it art. ⁣
⁣
You remind me to not fuss over the details (except for the extra beautiful ones); that none of it really matters. Except for love, that is. ⁣
You remind me that a smile actually feels quite good, and that compassion does too — when I stop stompin’ around long enough to let it’s honey fill me up. ⁣
You need me. ⁣
But I also need you. ⁣

I hung up my version of a hotel “do not disturb” sign so this mama can paint and paint and paint. Be back tomorrow. Sometime... 😉
If you need me, I’ll be in my living room, dancing like a wild woman, smudged in paint, and happy as can be. But also, don’t need me. 😘😘 Happy creating, everyone!

What a time to be alive! ⚡️A lot is changing and the pace of marketing moves really, REALLY fast -- but growing as a creative is just as gentle and slow a process as it has always been. Your creative practice probably mirrors Picasso’s and Monet’s and Warhol’s... How cool is that! ⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
And yet, the business side of being an artist...? THAT looks incredibly different. Thrilling and exciting and ever changing... but also, A LOT to manage. ⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
So why not pool our communal energy so we can all just get back to the studio, knowing that there is a network of highly passionate and skilled creatives to rely on when needed and information at your fingertips at any time? 🙌🏽. ⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
My hope for The Collective is that it can become a space of transformation and clarity in the broader creative world. A dedicated moment to calm your mind and envision your aspirations with clarity and a vision for what “success” looks and feels like TO YOU. ⁣
⁣
Doors to The Collective close tonight. ✨✨ Education, application, progress, community... ✨✨ $27/ a month. The doors will reopen in nine months, so hop to it!
