“To the boy he was always beautiful, and that was all the little Rabbit cared about. He didn’t mind how he looked to other people, because the Nursery magic had made him real, and when you are Real shabbiness doesn’t matter”

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED

Thank you @eva_joy_cacao

I honor the woman that I am, the woman that I have been, and the woman that I have yet to grow into.

I honor the women who came before me and through their bravery and sacrifice created opportunity and privilege for me today.

I honor the sisters who walk along side me who keep showing up in more and more authenticity and in service to their inspiration and community.

I honor the change makers, the path pavers, the watchdogs, the glass ceiling smashers, the drummers, the chanters, the singers.

I honor the brave women who step into spaces not labeled for them but where they have every right to exist, the ones who step forward to shield someone vulnerable from harm, the ones who step past competition and join others in the spirit of community and collaboration.

I honor the mothers, the grandmothers, the sisters, the aunties, the daughters.

I honor you.

We are enough, we are valid, we are worthy.

Thank you @autumnskyeart for your amazing words, they felt so aligned with how I felt, but I couldn’t write them. I thank you.

Please read @beelzeboobz post to help understand where this move to came from, and ongoing heartache and injustice towards women in Turkey ❤️

Hello lovely, ⁣ I am so happy to share this pos

Hello lovely,
⁣
I am so happy to share this post with you!
⁣
A while ago I was thinking about how I could combine my love for spirit animals and the realistic portraits I’ve been making as these different interests made me feel a bit out of focus. (Also thank you @frankehollywood 🙏🏻)
⁣
And just as if the universe was listening, (yes I believe in that kinda stuff) I received a message from a photographer I used to work with back in my styling days. He asked if I could paint his little boy as a birthday gift to his girlfriend and maybe add an animal in the artwork too? Well, my heart jumped and skipped a beat. This was a dream come true.
⁣
And now dear you, I am truly excited to share this new concept with you. Let me paint you your child with his or hers spirit animal....
⁣
I will create a lovely highlight information sheet soon and ad it to my website as well....
⁣
Oh and this artwork right here? I received a message from the photographer that there were happy tears. Well, mission accomplished. There is no bigger compliment than that.
⁣
So, what spirit animal can I draw for you?

Portraying precious moments of motherhood are amon

Portraying precious moments of motherhood are amongst my favorite subjects to paint. It’s that moment where time completely melts away and there is only the two of you. It’s the smell, the warmth, the breath and for just a while everything is fine as it is. It’s when you realise that maybe one day, that little body might be to heavy to carry, but you will hold that little heart for a lifetime...

Great things never came from comfort zones... unless it’s a big hippy dress... that’s pure comfort and will do just fine in this hot weather to come. Oh dear, are you ready for the heat wave? I wish you a wonderful start of the week. Let’s warm our hearts with sunshine, shall we?
