Intuitive and self/mom taught artist, returning after some time, my art uses words and art to explore the complex world of loss and trauma, depression and anxiety. And how to navigate when it goes awry..with courage, shaking knees and a warrior spirit.
I haven’t checked my fridge words in awhile and am loving some of what’s been put there. Great messages. What would you put with the words you see?

The Longing

Notice while the child holds on to the mother, there is no embrace or touch returned. This piece is about the longing for the mother who never was, who is gone, or who couldn’t show up for us as we needed.

Ripped To Shreds—I used to think it was all of you ripping me to shreds, when it’s been me all along.

When you realize that it is our negative thought loops, our inner meanies, which affect how we perceive ourselves, and what we allow from others. It is this awareness where we can start to shift.

These Coats I Wear Grow Heavy. Believing that who we are is not enough and we need to be somebody, or something, different. This takes us farther away from ourselves. It is only when we shed the coats, look inwards to our own heart and soul’s longings and lean in to what they whisper. I am here.

Stand On Your Own Two Feet…when one finds out that not only have they never ‘stood on their own two feet’, they have literally never stood firmly on their own two feet. A moment of awareness and opportunity to pivot.

Hold Your Head Up High—two versions. Returning to this as well.

I need some cheer today; maybe you do as well.

I’ll be circling back to this next. Beware the Hungry Ghosts.
