Funnel of focus!

    I decided that I was going to funnel some energy into my art over the next few days! 

    I would really like to do something with it! I discovered around a year ago that I am absolutely smitten with PATTERNS and COLOR! 

 

    As a kid, it was kind of a forbidden thing and I carried it into my adult life. 

 

    My mom dresses nice, but she is very much a plain, solid black, gray, white with subtle pops of color once in a while kind of girl! 

 

    It’s not that she forbid colors and patterns, but the things adults say when kids are listening have a way of sticking with you. 

 

    But now that I have worked hard on my mental health, starting standing up for myself, learned my worth and everything in between, I’ve embraced my love for PATTERN AND COLOR! 

 

    I am loving adventuring into the world of new and uncharted territories! I feel like my creativity is the only barrier now! And my skill level which will hopefully improve as a keep learning new techniques and find my niche! 


    Maybe I don't even have one! Maybe I am destined to be a person who tries everything at least once until I find something I adore. 


    I don't think that though, there are so many things that I absolutely love doing! They all equally pull my attention! 

 

    Happy Monday, friends! Do something AMAZING with your day! 

 

XOXO

That time I inked my Bitmoji...

         I will not apologize for my love of emojis and little illustrated versions of myself. I am obsessed! But every time I look at them I think to myself, there are NO versions of this that have tattoos and I ’m covered in them. (okay, not covered yet! But 14 with plans for more!)        So I illustrated my own with my very own tattoos (the ones you can visually see!) It took a lot of patience getting them just right but I am obsessed with how she came out! I finally am comfortable enough with my art to say that I am obsessed with some of the things I’m creating!        It feels so damn good to day that! I can feel my confidence growing each day! I am teaching myself pretty much everything. Every technique, every brush stroke, it’s a learning curve and I am loving the journey!         I have always been into art but I was never confident enough to share my stuff or try new things. I stuck with ...

What would you tell your former self if you had the chance?

So yesterday was all about confessions and today I am going to talk about what I wish I knew back then that I know now.   I have always thought the world was out to get me. If not the world, the people in my world. I haven ’t always had the easiest time and I have had some hard shit happen in my life; but who hasn’t?    Here’s a list of some of the things I've dealt with: 1.  Being an overweight child 2.  Having undiagnosed anxiety 3.  Being bullied 4.  Having literally no self confidence  5.  Being completely introverted   And h ere are the things I wish I could have said to myself back then :   Bullies:    It’s hard to even describe what it’s like to be bullied. Unless you’ve been there you just don’t know. My parents always made sure I had nice, name brand clothes and that I had anything I ever needed. But it didn’t matter, people couldn’t get over my size long enough to see that I had a good personality. And eventually...
