Pretty happy with the direction this one is taking. 💚💛🤍
This! This was exactly what I needed to hear. Listening to it on repeat and thought I'd put it out there for anyone else who needs to hear it too. So much wisdom. I love Lisa Congdon's work and am excited about her generosity to also share what she's learned along the way. Nestled in there are some real gems for people like me who struggle a lot with the comparison trap. She talked about how other artists' journey or pace is not better than mine, it's just different. Lose the judgement. 🎯 So good. Do yourself a big favor and listen to this episode, https://overcast.fm/+sna1H4vic, from the Lisa Congdon Sessions. ❤️
Treating these detail shots kind of like a sketchbook to experiment with new possibilities. This is from that bigger painting that I gave the white-out do-over treatment to. It lives! 🤣
And there are days when I probably should not have been painting while waiting on a plumber who turns out to be a no show. 🤬 so frustrating…. Painted over to start over tomorrow. If I had a fire pit I would have burned it.
Because it is, you know, all about the crust. #PizzaParables
Riding the wave today. 🌊 Grateful.
Painting over an older never-finished piece to start something new. After finishing my last series, I feel a little resistance about my own expectations in beginning again. It helps to have something already on the canvas. Something that is not precious, to paint over and play.

The process for my new series, A Fluid Odyssey, began in January and ended in June 2021. It took a lot longer than I thought, but it didn’t feel right to rush. I was recovering from the stroke that I had in September 2020 and worked the space between mothering and feeding the desire to create for myself alone.
