“There’s no glory in climbing a mountain if all you want to do is get to the top. It’s experiencing the climb itself - in all its moments of revelation, heartbreak, and fatigue - that has to be the goal.” - Karyn Kusama .

There is a real party going on over here. Joy is falling from the sky. Somehow the city knows. Everything is closed down. Time to revel in this peace and joy...Everything is dancing! Days like this don’t come often in this weary life. .

There are no words for how my heart feels right now. I woke up this morning, and everything was covered in white. White hangs from all the branches, white weighs on all the leaves. I can’t walk without stepping in the white. White is the Joy and Peace that fills my heart. It weighs on all the branches of my mind, I can’t walk without stepping in it. My eyes are blinded to this white, this light around me. When my sister @julierohryeg received her bone scan results today, and for the first time in a year was told that there is NOTHING to treat. 
My heart, my mind, my body is awash in this white.
I humbly want to thank everyone who has surrounded her and her family with love, prayers and too much support to even comprehend. Thank you 🙏 I hope and pray that this story touches your heart and inspires a deep desire for faith and love and peace within.❤️ ❤️ ❤️please DM me if you have questions about what it means to walk in faith, I can’t speak to Julie’s story but I know where that kind of love comes from and I know it’s for everybody 🤗 .

Meet my new art manager! She always has a lot on her mind, and is always up for a good convo. She is so encouraging of my practice. She believes in me. It’s funny, I don’t even have to say much, she just gets me. We are a perfect match. I’m so excited to see what will happen with this one rooting for me ❤️ .

Oils! 
I have been painting with acrylic for about 17 years now, so learning the ropes for oil has been a practice in waaaaiiiittttttiiiingggg. And as #elephantandpiggy have taught me, Waiting is Not Easy. But I am happy to say the process has been worth it. Some of the little pieces I have in the studio have been patiently accepting my marks for a good few months now. I am enjoying how they are forming into their own. And I must say on this one I am loving that hairy chest😆

On the weekend I started watching the documentary on #Evahesse and felt very inspired to push, dismantle, play, explore, and just BE an artist. The next time I went into the studio I just gave myself permission to LET GO. I don’t even know what the heck I’m doing but I have a deep feeling that that is exactly the point. .

Never judge a book by its cover. Always judge a painting by its underpainting.

See I do a lot of reading and get really caught up in things and then forget all about it and when I go paint I’m like Whoah, that character was me and I am there and there’s my kid and we’re all trees. This is where my mind goes, people 😂. Some artists need to travel the world, and I get it, that would be nice. I just think there are some interesting inside worlds too.

One more today because of #bellletstalk. I used to want to talk about how my biggest battles with mental health were thankfully in the past for me. This month has shown me that it will always be part of my journey, even if manifested in a kid I call my own. This little person who is wracked by the immensity of this life, wide eyed and terrified about “normal things.” Wrought with panic. It is embarrassing to say this, but I never really “got” how incredibly counterintuitive this word “mental illness” is. It really makes a person think it is “all in your head.” But then I saw this little person, who is supposed to be carefree, laughing and  playing, doubled over in pain and fear, and terror. A panic attack is a complete robbery of joy, peace, and freedom to think clearly. There have been times when I have been beside myself with unknowing. What do you do when the lines of logic are disconnected, and all you want to do is reach in and make everything better? I have learned something about the sheer power of presence in those overwhelming moments. I have also learned to listen to my child and be wise about helping them navigate their world on terms that are fair to their own being, and not just my expectations. And still, I know there is so much more to learn. Hugs to you if you are going through something similar with your child. .

I try to depict bodies in nature with the same properties as the things around them. Makes sense, right?

A larger panel. A different kind of underpainting. The reunion with something ancient. The start of something new.
