3 Snapshots of Grief

I really like how these came out. My art style has been changing and I think this is the direction I want to follow. Let me know what you think, I always love reading your comments!

The background is watercolor, the red is micron.

... Read moreGrief is a deeply personal experience that often finds expression in creative outlets such as art. Through various mediums, artists can convey emotions that words sometimes cannot capture. Watercolor painting, known for its fluidity and soft transitions, allows the depiction of nuanced feelings associated with loss. The use of ink, with its bold lines and sharp contrasts, can represent the stark realities of grief. Combining these techniques, the artwork featured creates a powerful dialogue about the grief process. Engaging with art during challenging times not only aids in processing emotions but also fosters a sense of community among those who resonate with similar experiences. Sharing these snapshots invites others to reflect on their own journeys and encourages discussions around art and healing. Whether one is navigating personal loss or supporting a loved one, understanding how creativity can serve as a therapeutic outlet is vital. Explore more about healing through art, and consider how your own artistic expressions can play a role in the journey of grief.

The Grief of Letting Go
I almost had a relapse into my old life. Nostalgia almost made me backtrack but something inside me said no it’s a trick. It’s OK to reminisce on old feelings, but it’s not OK to run back to comfort. You have to remind yourself why you can no longer be around certain spirits. You have to remind you

Fruit is a really important part of my kids' diet. It is one of the few things that is (for them) allergen safe and they will eat willingly. Melons and Mangoes are a hit. Bananas are super popular with my toddler, which is a shame because at the moment the quality of them is dire. #parenting
