Picked up a paintbrush and some watercolors in the weeks after losing almost everything to a house fire (June 2024). Sharing some of my journey and looking forward to finding some community here - especially now.

Finding some semblance of peace through quiet moments with my paints and ink. When you can’t see the forest for the trees, find and follow the light you can see - one step at a time. 🌲🌲🚶🏽‍➡️🌕

Republicans: "Democrats can affect the weather." Also Republicans: "Eight billion people generating 50 billion tons of greenhouse gases every year can't affect the weather."

Making the most of what is left after a devastating house fire is also helping me cope with all the things this month. I used things around this temp home (dryer lint, string I found) to make a card for a friend. What helped me may lead to something that makes them smile = a win-win 😌 #ArtTherapy

I will continue to create #art while I cultivate connection, consider my role, and remain informed. How are y’all coping? #ArtHeals #TraumaSurvivor #quotes #artquotes

Meeting up with others IRL in my community to cultivate a support system and network going forward was just what I needed. I highly recommend this. 💙

Playing around with different styles and moods in my #art. Sometimes I’m sweet. Sometimes I’m snarky. But I try to never suck as a human. ✌🏼 Should this card be made available on Etsy? I am currently building my shop there.

Especially now. ✌🏼 “May you have friends that are sanctuaries and may you be that kind of friend to others. May you be soft ground where people can breathe, unfold and be the fullest version of themselves.” - Billy Chapata #watercolor #ireland #quotes #painter #PostTraumaticGrowth #ArtHeals

What an exciting day on @bsky.app A message for all my fellow creatives who are struggling to produce right now: Every page you write, every melody you play, every brushstroke you take, every image you create, is an act of defiance. We are the new Degenerate Artists and it’s time to get to work.

Hello. 👋🏼 I’m new here. Looking to build community with those who love art, human-kind, and human rights. I’ve picked up watercolor painting as a healing medium to process grief and trauma in my own life. ❤️‍🩹 (It’s helping! 🥹)
