The wonderful @therapistsanctuary and I have filmed another session for our `Creative Sanctuary` series on the y tubes 😊 . This time we talked about `shame` and `shadow work` in general. Jen made a doll and I made an empathy monster! 😊 Many of you will have created an empathy monster with me before in response to the Shadow Work Life Book lesson in the past (and also on woman unleashed!) This cutie did not disappoint me. 😊 The episode will be up on my channel soon! ♥️♥️♥️ Link in my bio/ linktree.
When I`m low and life feels heavy, I end up creating innocent, delightfully cute creatures. I don`t tend to paint `my pain`, I tend to paint `what I need` or `what will soothe me`. The sweet characters offer a reprieve of some sorts, an escape from the dark, a soulful moment of compassion and empathy. I can hear this cute little guy say; “hey hey, it’s gonna be ok, want a cookie or a hug?” 😊 Hope he brightens up your day too. ♥️♥️♥️
My latest painting. So enjoyed working on her cute little happy face. Fun little tidbit; was trying to make ‘squinty eyes’ as if she was looking into the sun, but failed and now they are just small eyes, but I love them so much. I usually draw more big eyed people so it was a pleasant surprise how this ended up. 😊
Frens! 🥰 I know we’ve literally just finished Mastering Mixed Media, but I couldn’t HELP but let you know about this amazing new other event that I’m part of that I think you’ll absolutely love.
For the last 7 years I’ve been part of a great art event called Sketchbook Revival hosted by my friend @karenabend
Sketchbook Revival is a free creative event (with an optional bundle buy-in) with usually 35 or so artists who all share inspirational sketchbook techniques and exercises with you!
This year, Karen is doing things a little differently!
