  • Red and Black Abstract Hearts

    Red and Black Abstract Hearts

    I’m keeping on the Valentine’s Day rabbit hole… yes, I’m aware it’s still December. I had a TON of fun with these red and black abstract patterns! Some of them give me the Alice in Wonderland Queen of Hearts vibe, some are just cool. So yep, here’s 12 pages of them!! Enjoy, and share if…

  • Hugging the Shadows

    Hugging the Shadows

    For as long as I can remember, it has felt like my insides are a giant dark black hole. There was only pain and hurt and the frantic attempt to cover it all up so I didn’t feel it. Every love, every drink, and every person I needed to desperately like me was another patch…

  • Alcohol Inks Swirl

    Alcohol Inks Swirl

    Considering I can never have another drink, inks are the closest I’ll get to alcohol again. (a bit of dark humor there) These papers fall under the “just because they’re pretty” category. I’m not really sure how to use them, but boy do I like them a lot. The colors just swirl and bubble. I…

    How many layers and details go into your comfort?

My real comfort is curled up and comfy, silence (unless nature is singing), maybe a warm blanket, and some coffee. But that’s just the first layer.  Real comfort is what happens inside.  It’s…

  • The Unconforming Dog

    The Unconforming Dog

    What does his face say to you?  What emotions do you see in those big eyes? I see an image much like my own.  Messy, different, colorful, but not understood. Yet still beautiful.  Still worthy of love and affection.  Gloriously unique. What would it look like if, just for today, you loved every drip and…

  • Abstract Colors Have Freedom and Joy

    Abstract Colors Have Freedom and Joy

    Colors and shapes, that seem to be so random and make no sense, yet just flow into each other. Messy, drippy, and fun – the strokes don’t conform to anything, they don’t need anyone’s approval to simply be what they are.  They just come into existence with full confidence and unknown purpose.
