STORMBRIGHT
We've had quite the symphony of storms lately, and in our neck of the woods, it's been a welcome shower party! I hope everyone’s weathering their own meteorological dramas with flair. Today’s video is a little love letter to the song "Thunder" by Leona Lewis, playing around with fonts and prints I whipped up in 2024, and they couldn’t be more perfect for the occasion—especially since April 5th is National Dandelion Day! Talk about serendipity! Here’s to embracing our inner weeds, remembering that some weeds are a blessing, blooming tougher, and letting a bit of wildness run free. Just don't dawdle too long before diving into that wild side! My wild side will be spent learning the program Blender. - Brenna
Poem -
“STORMBRIGHT”
It began gray—sky heavy,
hope hushed.
A breath held
in a hush before bloom.
But I was never waiting for calm.
Only the wind.
Only the storm.
Then came thunder—not with warning,
but a welcome.
Rain spilled like paint across the sky,
and I let go.
One by one, seeds turned to wishes.
Ash to gold.
Ash to flight.
And all the color
I had held inside
rose with me into the storm.
They called me a weed.
I called myself wild.

The recent wave of storms has not only rejuvenated the landscape but also inspired countless artists and creators. Storms can represent the chaos and beauty of life, just as dandelions, often labeled as weeds, symbolize resilience and unyielding growth. In digital art, the juxtaposition of dark clouds and colorful blooms creates a compelling narrative that many resonate with. As the seasons change, embracing the wildness within, like the tenacious dandelion, encourages us to break free from societal expectations. Creating with tools such as Blender can aid artists in exploring new dimensions in their work, further enhancing their ability to express the essence of these themes. Celebrating days like National Dandelion Day invites us to acknowledge the beauty in what is often overlooked, reminding us that even among storms, we can find light and inspiration.
