Been sitting with these swimmer girls for a few months now. I’ve been thinking of how to resolve the girl on the left but also very at peace with being able to spend more time with the work; I know the resolution will come. If there is anything I’ve learnt this past year in life as well as painting (is there a difference?) is that most times it better to sit and find moments to stop instead of forcing an outcome ✨⭐️

Ty @thorrixon for listening to me nerd out on painting 🫠

It’s been a year of painting with oil paint and I feel like I still have so much to learn. It challenges me to be extremely present and to have a kind of patience I didn’t have before. It’s taught me to slow down considerably. To put things away and bring them out later to look with a fresh eye. I don’t often have a romantic life of being in studio painting all the time, but when I do get the time, it is very romantic and I am very grateful to it. What a delicious thing.

I have built my art business by showing up online, sharing my process, and selling my work consistently. I still believe in the power of that. But as I’ve grown older and continued developing as an artist, I’ve had to ask myself harder questions. Is this work engaging with the critical thinking, curiosity, and depth that I believe should exist within my practise? Over the years I’ve learnt that building a sustainable art practise requires a different kind of balance and that traditional business models don’t fit the way artists need to work.
Artists need space for failure, experimentation, and obsession. Here’s a little more detail on how I have pivoted my business over the years in order to develop my practise while maintaining an income from it.

Hustle culture promised us freedom and success; in reality this has translated to longer hours, financial insecurity, and very little time to rest…Our bodies send us conflicting messages, they say to us “I don’t think I can survive this” but also “I don’t think I can survive without this.” And both feel true.

It is so important to experience artwork in the flesh. There is just no comparison. It’s almost like when you try and take a picture on your phone of a sunset and it doesn’t quite do it justice, painting is much the same. The hand is there. The slip ups, the history behind the artists decisions. The corrections. Image making is one aspect of painting; but looking is the other, it is a privelege and such a powerful tool. Painting is so much more than just an image, it is history and time. How wonderful is that? 🌀

For the last few months I have been dailing into what my North Star is; in this case there is more than one. Always, forever, bringing me back home to centre, my guiding light. My beautiful children. And my brush.
