23. 'Rae' 🖤 for @ash_ray 🖤

I loved the image Ash sent me so much that I wanted to capture all the details and shadows so a pencil sketch felt right. Drawing this dappled light was beyond meditative. Thanks Ash for trusting me to capture your mama 🖤

22. "I have always had a deep routed survival instinct, that comes from my up bringing & being raised with faith. Now I am older I have found a lot of support in Kundalini yoga and, what I like to call, the collective consciousness. I do a lot of breath work & meditation 🧘‍♂️ when I have difficult situations to deal with. So I find strength in God, others and within. The support we can offer others, uplift those around you is so important and I have been fortunate enough to have met some truly wonderful and uplifting woman." - lifelong friend and mama to the most adorable twins, @mom2squared2 ❤❤❤

Trigger warning: Depression

I wrote this in my journal 2 years ago. Today I am so thankful for the tools I've gained to live alongside depression. It's not always easy, but here I am.

17 Dec 2018

Yesterday and today was hard. Long weekend. I didn't want to commit to making plans with anyone which in hindsight was maybe not the best idea cos I ended up not going out much at all.
And felt super low and tired of being tired/restless/just existing.
I had a good cry and spoke to Ant about how this feels. The loneliness. No one really understands.

I'm tired
And have no will power left to push myself

I know this will pass
And God I know you are with me in this confusing time

21. "I'm proud of my bravery and my determination

21. "I'm proud of my bravery and my determination to grow, my open heart for people who consider me a safe space because I'm not afraid to show my vulnerability so that they can too. I'm proud of my ability to follow my heart, despite the big decisions and the hurdles. I'm proud of the grace that I have for myself and for others and I'm proud of my forever hopeful heart." - Beautiful friend, creative and mama to two boys @nikki_viola

I've been enjoying putting paint to canvas again. This is ink and acrylic on board.

To the remaining 3 people who I need to paint (you know who you are), thanks for being so patient with me.
