“PETRICHOR - CHERISH ME” 2024
Acrylic Paint, watercolour, salt, coloured and graphite pencil, and ballpoint pen on watercolour paper. 

Hello !!!!! ☺️💕🌟 This is technically my first piece of the year, although I did most of it at the end of 2023. I want this piece to be able to speak for itself, I will explain some of the specific symbolism I have included however. This piece is a reflection and honouring for the people in my life that left this earth last year, by natural causes and by s*****e. having that happen within my own family has changed the way I view and value life forever, this piece holds my processing of that. The time it took me to complete this piece, and reflect whilst I completed it, helped me to be able to process it further and accept it immensely. Admittedly, this is the second painting I’ve ever done that I’ve cried whilst painting it, the definition of cathartic. I’ve included so many colours to add an air of positivity to it. The background patchwork pattern is my cushion I sit on whilst I paint on the floor, the flowers on the scythe are the flowers from my Grandads funeral, the patterns on the pillow are reminiscent of my friend who passed art style, and the grim reaper still has a heart to show how I believe he has humility in deciding when people should go. I wanted it to also have a sense of comfort.

I look forward to exploring my other concepts after completing this, and I’m glad I’ve found some more closure on these feelings since this completion. It’s like a way to help me physically move on by having this artwork. I will be leaving this concept behind me as I focus on other concepts more familiar to my art as we head into this new year. Take what you would like from this piece! If left alone I could write about my art for a very long time. Especially the use of salt in this piece was so fun, and also protective! Cherish those you love while you can. Having this wrap up an encapsulate my art and experience of 2023 is very appropriate I think. 
I hope you’re all well 🫂 I have exciting plans for this year, and I can’t wait to keep creating 🤍 by @butturbum

"That's not yarn!" 2026 A4 Acrylic Paint
Again, I wanted something fun to paint in between working on my massive canvas that I am hoping to get finished before the end of the year.. I feel guilty for creating a work without much 'deep meaning' especially in comparison to some of my other works, but the truth is I have been battling depression for most of this year so this artwork as well as my last one were primarily made to cheer myself up by playing around with cute and playful themes that make me happy..... so I hope that can make others feel a bit of happiness as well. This might be one of my cutest paintings I have done in a while..... I am so obsessed with this. 

Big credits to my dear friend tiana @pierrotpriestess for coming up with the eyeball as yarn idea, ur brain is beautiful 💜

debuting my new OC who I don't have a name for yet, my mint lava lamp nurse. She will do her best to make you feel better. Her lava lamp core calms you. At this point in time I would like her name to start with K but thats all I have, any name suggestions please leave in the comments 🫟

I drew this as a fun little break in between my big painting project. Themes are heavily inspired by the Shipskettie aesthetic which was coined by my friend @alice4ever__

I am happy to share that this original painting of mine now with its hand decorated frame by me is available on my website! I am actually shocked no one has grabbed her up yet, being 1 part of a 2 part series with the other artwork being one of my most popular artworks of all time (The first pinned artwork on my page currently). I have had her listed for a while excluding the decorated frame, but now she is the only original of mine available to buy with the beaded matching frame 🍀 I think she is just beautiful and she is ready to be adored in a new home. 
I have also had this piece exhibited before where she has been a bit of a fan favourite. I really hope she can go to a perfect new home soon.

My website is butturbum.com the link is in my bio, she is in my originals section. I also do Worldwide shipping ⭐️

My scanned special 10k followers artwork and my follow up artwork after the commission is here for full viewing 🍀 firstly THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR 10k FREAKING FOLLOWERS 😭😭😭😭 I'm still in disbelief, I have a lot planned for this year already so I hope u guys enjoy seeing how I grow and what I'm up to next. All of the support fuels me so much to keep creating and doing what I love. This artwork will always be incredibly special to me knowing its backstory and how it even came to be created, being born from an experience where I dealt with the worst commission I have ever had in my life and hundreds of people were sad that I painted over the first painting I did for the commission - I decided to bring it back but more me and my style than ever and with a whole new lens. It really feels like a timestamp and this painting will hold so many memories for myself for the rest of my life. On top of that it's my favourite original character ever Chi Chi so that also makes me happy whenever I look at it. What an insane journey the lead up to this painting has been, I hope you guys have enjoyed the journey and this painting as well 🤍 by @butturbum

Butturbum 2025 recap ⭐️
This year has exceeded what I even thought was possible for me, I did more than I ever thought I could. So I wanted to do a little recap like I've seen some of my friends do to take a moment to reflect on everything I've done this year

⭐️I started my Small business on the 28th of March, setting up a website with the help of my sister @alice.patte and investing money into prints and stickers to start selling to support my ability to create art
⭐️I created an animation for the first time in years !!!! The animation is probably my favourite thing I have created all year, with the music being provided by @lewis.melons 
⭐️I had my first exhibition in Brisbane EVER ! At the biggest exhibition ive ever been apart of at @converge.bne , I was apart of a total of 4 exhibitions total this year !!!!
⭐️I had my first Market stall in Brisbane !!! In total I was apart of 6 markets this year !!!!!
⭐️I got commissioned by one of my FAVOURITE music artists of all time to create an EP cover for @mumfighter ❕❕ As well as various tour posters and merchandise for him and his team, then I had the pleasure to give him the original painting in person 🤍
⭐️I created 13 handmade tote bags all by myself out of secondhand materials!!!! They sold out within a month of launching, they are my second favourite thing I have created all year and I'm incredibly proud of myself for trying something so new and learning how to sew again
⭐️I reached over 2.4 million profile views and hit 10k followers right before the year ended. I gained 8.5k followers in a month, thats fucking insane. Thank you so much to all of my new followers for being interested in my art and stories

Finally, one of the biggest achievements I've made this year was setting aside time to keep creating art. I work fewer days at my day job to be able to paint and create, sometimes that means I am left with less money but it could not be more worth it, and it's paid off in the long run of me living a fulfilling life. 

I am TRULY and unbelievably grateful for the support. I hope to create even more awesome things next year 💝 Thank you everyone 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝 by @butturbum
