I’ve been reading a lot of fantasy romance this year, so of course it’s showing up in my art too! ✨📚

I’m always open for more book recommendations, so if you’ve been reading something good, let me know! 📖 (not limited to fantasy romance either)

Here’s a little peek at what’s been on my easel over the past couple of months. 🦢Life has been a bit hectic this summer, but through it all, this painting has been a source of calm in the chaos. It is slowly but surely coming together with every brushstroke! ✨

"Wings of Hope" 🦁

This piece feels like a manifestation of my faith & optimism in the face of scary times.

I can't control the world, but I can try to bring more kindness, beauty, magic, & hope into it.

& so, in at least some small way, I hope this painting brings more of those things to you! 🧡

The Guardian of Tranquility offers her protection over the watchful willows, the gentle, resilient streams, & every living thing within this serene refuge.

She offers the same to you. May your peace be protected in the refuge of your heart, mind, & home.

Here’s a peek at the pencil drawing for my next painting! ✏️🦁

I have to focus on my joy, on my art, and hold onto hope, even in uncertain times.

I’d like some of that hope, and joy, to shine through in this piece.

Life can be difficult, so please be gentle and kind with yourself. 🧡

“Girls are caterpillars while they live in the world, to be finally butterflies when the summer comes.” 🦋

Congrats on 1.3k, my friend! 🎉

Here’s a 6”x8” mixed media painting titled “Flame” 🔥

Like a phoenix, rising from the ashes, at peace within its own element. The light of hope in dark times. A warm embrace. The spark of an idea.

QRP with your skull art 💀

Persephone & Cerberus - An oldie but a goodie! Maybe I should draw more skulls…

This piece has a special place in my heart because, aside from Persephone being my namesake, this is the first piece I completed a detailed pencil drawing for & I never looked back! ✏️

Hey there, new followers! I’m still chipping away at this spooky painting, but I just realized that I never shared this WIP on here!

She needs more time in the cauldron, but her metamorphosis is coming along nicely! She may have an eternity, but l'm hoping to finish this piece a lot sooner... 🦇
