Sealing with Cold Wax medium. I don't know what it is, but something about this process is always SO satisfying!😍

Blue Moon💙 🌕 ✨ In this piece, a woman rises from a lotus alongside the Moon. Her voice ignites as the Moon becomes full. Her power grows. She closes her eyes and surrenders to herself and to the Earth as the night blooms.

Celebrating this lunar cycle with watercolor. 🌕 One of the many names for July's Full Moon is the Buck Moon, as it's after male deers have shed and regrown their antlers.

For me, it's a reminder to accept who I was with empathy. No one has to be perfect to be deserving of love. We are all worthy.❤️

"Blue Dream"💙 ✨ This month I was drawn to blue. Gemini, in all its glory, reminded me of my voice, something I've neglected for a long time.

How do we nurture what has been silenced for so long?

It's been a process, with so much uncertainty. But June brought me a sense of peace I haven't felt.

My first art reveal!😊 Although I'm not selling this one, I absolutely adore it. Something about the eyes and the cowrie shell capture a sadness for me that's almost endearing. Plus, it was one of my first gold leaf and watercolor experiments!

How I fixed one of my watercolor pieces😊 I'd messed up on the eyes and masking tape tore up the border. I think it looks much better!

Happy Monday! Starting the week with a galactic experiment!🤩 using liquid watercolors a bit more extensively. I found them perfect for different effects on the hair!

I'm really sad this piece didn't turn out, there was something so emotive about it for me. Maybe the combination of blue and silver created a cathartic but soothing effect.😊 Alas, it was not meant to be!

Blue monochromatic watercolor snippet💙 Didn't turn out the way I wanted but it gave me a better understanding of the medium.😊

My week-long break turned into a month...in a half😅 I missed creating art but I'm happy with the time spent away. I'm very grateful to have things to be thankful for.❤️

This is a glitter experiment from a while back! I was still getting used to color, the final result turned out super fun!😄
