A Self Love Valentine Message for YOU!

Here is a special message to YOU on this Valentine’s Day. :)

On V-day each year I like to change the focus a little bit from the love for and of “other” to the love for and of your beautiful glorious self. I like to invite you this year to buy chocolates and flowers NOT ONLY for other people but ALSO for yourself.

Not only that, I would love to encourage you to deepen your self-love/ self-care/ self-compassion practices (or to start a self-lovepractice if you don’t have one yet)! Sounds good? :-)

TIP! -> Join a relaxing/ cathartic self study art class for 50% off on my site at the moment, it’s SO good for your soul! use code: IAMLOVE2019.

:) Absolutely go tell your beautiful loved ones how much you love them (do that every day, not just today), but DON’T leave your beautiful self out of this practice! :)

(And by self love I don’t mean: egotism or self-glorification/ absorption, I mean: treating & loving yourself the same way you might treat your child or sister, friend or mother, a person you love dearly – eg: with kindness, gentleness, forgiveness, softness. Self love also means; working on stabilising your confidence and esteem; realising you are good enough, worthy, that you matter as much as anyone else… that sorta thing! :))

More and more do I realise how so many of us suffer from self judgement, self rejection, low self esteem, low self worth. I’ve come to believe that it’s one of the BIGGEST things that stands in the way of growth, abundance, love, light, beauty, living our dreams and yes yes, even: world peace. (Low self worth can cause depression and pain – hurt people, hurt people, right?).

So today, on V-day I encourage you to start practising more self love more self compassion, more ‘sitting with the wholeness and fullness of you’, allowing your feelings to be, allowing you to experience all that you experience, forgiving yourself, asking for help, letting go of shame and guilt, saying no more, saying yes more, stop blaming yourself, being gentle and kind with yourself, seeing your worth, noticing the amazing impact and difference you make in this world.

I shared this printable poster before but I want to share it again! You can print out and hang up to remind you how to practise self love:

Download the high resolution version of this poster here. You can print out for personal use. Feel free to forward to friends. <3 Download it by right-clicking on the image above and choose ‘save target as’ or download from this link:  GuidelinestoSelfLove.jpg

If no one told you that yet today; you are loved! <3

Have a wonderful V-day everyone, may it inspire you to more self-love, less self-blame and an awe and complete acceptance of the wholeness and fullness of beautiful amazing YOU.

xoox

Rapunzel – Freed.

I went on quite a journey with this painting. Reading the original Grimm version of Rapunzel deeply moved me: her long, beautiful hair cut by the witch who raised her, her exile into the wilderness while pregnant with twins, her survival of all that hardship, and finally her becoming the one who saves the prince.

To me, this is true female empowerment. I wanted to paint Rapunzel as defiant and transformed. And crucially, I wanted to give her long hair again - not as a ladder, not as something to be used or admired by others, but as a reclamation of power. A part of her body that was once appropriated becomes fully her own again.

Teaching on A Year of Magic & Fairy Tales; I`m loving diving deep into the original fairy tales, myths and stories and bringing one or other aspect alive of these stories on the page.

This piece is a `paint over collage` painting. We start off by laying down our collage elements and then layer paint, crayons, markers, acrylics, gold leaf etc on top. A deeply layered and moving process. 😍😍😍

I adore how this came out. I`m particularly in love with the lavenders, hot pink and layer collage pieces in this painting.

Revisiting this beauty from 2 years ago. I intended her as a class but she somehow didn’t make the cut! I love her now and disagree with past Tam!
