Last night I started a new journal. This is a BIG DEAL for me because never, ever have I finished a journal before. Not a notebook for school, an art journal, nothing. This might be because (a) I hav...
Ive been calling my course with Flora Bowley Brave Intuitive You which is actually the name of her book and website - the e-course is actually called Bloom True. But you knew what I meant, right? Its...
Im going to TRUST the talent and advice that Flora gave us - these layers will probably barely be seen in the end work. This, to me is a good thing, because I feel like Ive ruined both of my canvasse...

I was writing in my journal today about what I think it means to have courage. As I was writing, this popped out and I realised it is very much my mantra as a person and an artist.
