Another little abstract in slightly more muted tones this time (although the red violet/ purple does really make the whole thing more vibrant.) 😍😍😍
Many of you asked for a little timelapse of one of my abstracts. Here you go! 😊 and yes it includes a satisfying border peel! 😍😍😍 #mixedmedia #abstractart #artjournal
Bit obsessed with making these abstracts at the moment! This is one of my ultimate fav colour schemes of all time. 😍😍😍
A golden oldie. This is a very old painting of mine that I still love so much today. 😍😍😍 And Rumi too. Of course. ♥️♥️♥️
Another little abstract that I think came out pretty well. 😍😍😍 I don’t use green a lot so this was creatively scary for me but I’m glad I included it 😊
Throw back to this little art ditty that just popped up on memories (on Facebook) from 5 years ago and love it so much. Unusual colour choices for me! Came with this quote: "Only from the heart can you touch the sky." - Rumi ❤️
Pssst. Just wanted to let you all know that we will be running Mastering Mixed Media again this year. I`M SO EXCITED. Over here at Willowing HQ we are excitedly preparing for this super fun event. Last year was A BALL. 😍🥰🤩 Sign ups will begin somewhere in April. 😊 *dances*
Painted this little kitty today with a special message for you. 😊😻 - Hope to make this into a series. Cute kitty telling us sweet things. 😊 Feel free to share! Thank you! ❤️🙏❤️
Been working on this new abstract spread! Not sure if it’s finished yet but love where it’s now and the colour scheme = ♥️. I struggle with abstract art but love looking at it! Do you find abstracts harder or easier to make compared to paintings with clear subjects?
A therapist once told me that she didn’t think I ‘would’ve made it’ had I not had art in my life. Not sure how helpful it was of her to say that and not sure if that was a correct assessment, but it tells you 2 things: 1. She was struck by the trauma I have experienced and 2. She was aware how powerful making art can be. It is also why I love the attached cartoon so much! 😊
Hello friends! As promised, the video of the making of this journal spread is now up. 😊 Watch on my youtube channel: youtube.com/@willowingarts (or clickable link to my youtube channel in bio/ link tree) - Have a lovely day. ♥️♥️♥️
She is finished. So happy with how this came out! I have a video of the creation of this too, will be up soon! ♥️♥️♥️

This song has been on repeat for the last 3 weeks or so. It`s so achingly beautiful and heart breaking, had to record my own version of it! I love harmonising with myself. Playing the piano and using a mic however, meant that it overwhelmed the voice a bit, will do that differently next time. ♥️♥️♥️ Best listened to on headphones.
The song is by `Novo Amor`. Here are the lyrics:
"Repeat Until Death"
Low, a part of me now
A palm to my mouth
I said it, almost
Snow, brother, I`ll bet it all gold
Shudder with blood in my nose
I had it almost
Don`t go, you`re half of me now
But I`m hardly stood proud
I said it almost
Oh, I`ve been low
But dammit, I bet it don`t show
It was heaven a moment ago
Oh, I had it almost
We had it almost
Oh, I can`t seem to let myself leave you
But I can`t breathe anymore
Oh, I can`t seem to not need to need you
I can`t breathe anymore
♥️
I had discarded this journal spread a while ago as “not good enough” and now I’m like: “heh? I really love this!” So funny how your own view of your own art can change so much after a while. Not finished yet but I like it as it is. 😊
Looking at more old journal pages! These are from around 2016/17 I think! 😊 The ‘one word’ thing has always been there for me. What I do when journalling; I draw/ paint/ scribble and then usually there is some kind of overwhelming emotional state that can be summarised or reflected in one word, so you often see words like: ‘open’, ‘stay’, ‘compassion’, ‘surrender’ on my journal pages. Like messages/ reflections from ‘my higher’ self. 😊
