Artist Love Bomb: Talent is a myth. Dedication is a choice. Don’t waste your precious time wondering if you’re talented enough—you are. Be a disciple of your own practice. Keep showing up! #blueskyart #abstractart #collage #mixedmedia #mixedmedia_art #modernart #color #painting #artoftheday

A vibrant abstract painting with geometric shapes and patterns with a face sketched as the focal point. The piece is full of color and motion in an homage to street art

Mini collages! Always a fun way to warm up, get back into your creative flow, or just play. No pressure, no focus on outcome; just tear up some paper, grab a few paints, and have at it! 🤩 #blueskyart #collage #mixedmedia #expressiveart #abstractart #abstractcollage #artoftheday #sketchbook

Getting ready to kick off the #knitathon2025 tomorrow! Here are SOME ways #craftivisim can help us all fight back: Making your labor visible, creating community over isolation, decommodifying beauty, embracing mistakes as rebellion against curated culture, & intergenerational sharing🥰 #knitting

Yay! It’s October! Here’s an apothecary bottle I made just in time for my favorite season, minus the cold weather, lack of sunlight, weird fall allergies, influx of spiders not paying rent to live in the corners of my ceiling, but other than that…😘 #blueskyart #artoftheday #mixedmediaart #october

From one of my FAVORITE artists! Anytime I see one of their pieces, I can’t help but feel lighter—also, I hope to paint something as beautiful one day. Thank you Julia for being here ❤️

Mental health is not a destination, it’s a journey. If you struggle with mental illness like I do, you’re not alone. It is brave to seek help, not shameful and it’s ok not to be ok.

Artist Love Bomb:You gorgeous artist,your work isn’t meant to be left in childhood. It’s not “just a hobby”. You don’t need a degree. You’re not wasting time doing your art. Don’t buy into these narratives. You have never done anything more important than being an artist❤️ #blueskyart #art #collage

Oh my goodness—NEVER feel embarrassed by what your creativity is asking from you, that’s what the world craves! It’s those jagged edges, those sharp wounds that make your art meaningful ❤️ BTW, I can’t knit either🤭—I’m using a super chunky turquoise ombre yarn🧶

You are so right—intuition can literally be life-saving. I’m so glad you’re tuning into that VERY perceptive inner voice❤️ Thank you for all you beautiful energies coming my way! I’m doing well…I’ve switched from writing a bit, into knitting giant scarves🤪
