🎨 Hey wonderful peeps! Life's thrown a curveball my way, and guess what—I'm back in action with my paintbrush! 🌈 It's all thanks to some unexpected stuff after a scary welcome to the world for our son this year. Not to mention those pesky lawyer fees to keep our little girl safe. 💖

🚀 Big changes are happening! My paintings are getting a snazzy new look, and I'm rolling out some new materials. I’d love to Still your go-to for family and pet portraits, plus I'm cooking up some fresh originals.

💸 Quick heads up: some commissions now need a little down payment love. Helps me keep the creative vibes flowing while juggling life's twists. If you've commissioned in the past, hang tight, especially since my right hand is on a learning curve post-finger break.

💌 I'm buzzing with excitement! If anything catches your eye or you've got a wild idea, hit me up! Let's make some art, and remember, I'm a mama hustling to provide for her cubs. 🐾✨ as always, your support means the world! Share the love and let's spread the word! 🚀💕

Every time I paint a buck ….
Bambi’s dad looks pretty chill 😜

And so it begins! I will be posting not only finished pieces that I’d like to separate with to make room for the little fella, but “new” pieces that have been recently completed.
Canvases, who knew they were such a storage sucker 😜

With baby boy on the way, Mama’s gotta make some space 🤪🤯
Stay tuned ☺️

“Off with his head”

It’s season 🎃

Yesterday was defeating.
Feeling accomplished and proud of where I am with my career, the company I work with, and my position in life, I went to the doctor.
As some of you may know, at the beginning of June, I broke my right Index finger. I went to the Emergency room, saw my broken finger on the monitor, and thought the worst was behind me.
I made it out of the emergency room that day without pain medication and a plan of ice and wrapped splint for the next month.
Unfortunately, yesterday revealed the solution may not be as easy as we hoped. When the splint and wrapping were removed, although my finger is healing straight, it still does not bend and make a fist normally. My ring finger is still stuck with some Spock Syndrome and curls under my first two fingers instead of in unison.
She asks what I do for a living and if I live nearby because we need to contact the Surgeon.

I’m told we are running out of time, and I should have been in sooner,
She left the room to get someone to re-wrap my hand and would return as well to let me know what was going to happen next.
To say I got scared doesn’t even compare to the anxiety that rushed over me. I stood up, paced, and pressed the button on the wall for the person to come back. After probably .5 seconds of pacing again I walked out. I walked out of the room where the people were there to help me with my broken digit. I couldn’t focus on that, I focused on how bad surgery is going to hurt? If I throw up right here, right now, will they think it’s covid? I couldn’t breathe. It suddenly felt warmer in that room than the heat advisory outside and I ran. I opened the door, went down the stairs, and out the nearest door I could see. I sat on a bench in the heat and tried to breathe. The air was hot and felt like it would go in my mouth but not make it to my lungs. My stomach sank and I felt instant guilt for the people upstairs who I ran out on. I looked up the clinic to call the nurse and let them know what was going on. They didn’t answer. I panicked harder. I had to go back. If I don’t go back, it’ll keep getting later and that would be worse! I was crying and hyperventilating silently as I walked back to the door and wiped my face going through the doors. The concierge/check-in asked what I was here for and explained the situation. There was instant compassion radiating from this sweet woman as soon as she saw my face under the mask, and how I was feeling. I walked back up to my appointment. Discussed how this will affect my painting and job and has already made a huge impact on both.
I left. I calmed down. Even though typing with a t-rex claw has been extremely and frustratingly difficult, I am still doing well and enjoying every aspect of my work life. Even though painting with a wrapped paw is not steady, mistakes are made, control is being relearned, and will most likely need to be re-learned once more after surgery if it heads that way.
But I’m going to do it. I was extremely fearful about the what ifs earlier. What if I can’t paint like I used to, what if I can’t type as fast as I did in the past, how long will my right hand be out of commission? My mindset was off. Thank you for mental illness for that but thank you for growth for where I’m at now. Able to recognize the fear, the cause, and snap me out of it back to “I have s**t to do”.
I can relearn. Maybe my finger won’t go back to normal, and maybe my right hand will be clawed up for longer than anticipated…… but the only thing stopping me, is me. Not only do I get to thank this experience for the “great” growth opportunity for me… but I WAS letting it stop me. Now, I have the inspiration to not only try to earn the funds for these fun new medical bills, but the opportunity to learn how to use my hand in the condition it is now while still creating. If anyone’s looking for a dinosaur, animal, or anything that will bring happiness… message me 😊 🥰❤️ Thank you to everyone who has checked on me 🥰 back to the grind and back at square one🙈💪

Business card or art
Always both!

What comes to mind with these Meows? 🤔 🐱

The other day, I posted I woke up feeling like a Monster

Inner conflict or outer, walking into the fire or out of it, the view you keep about yourself is the real win

Maybe I’m a monster, that’s cool. I AM a Ta**us, and need to remind myself, it’s more than okay to have horns ♉️

Broke out the Acrylic
People literally always ask “ oh you’re a watercolor artist, is that all you can do?”
Excuse you. My college debt is glaring at you.
.on a Rather large 🙄 20 x30 canvas

Might just stay living in the studio since it matches 😅

Am I doing this right 😅
I wish I still had my bike 🤔🤔
And she things she’s the tired one 👇

Working on a few ideas for a painting to raffle...
what should it be though?
An animal? President? Goddess? Place? Person? A cat wearing a suit playing a pin ball machine?
Machine gun Kelly?.... just kidding that wouldn’t leave my possession 😜
More like something I’ve already done? Drop a picture of what you’d like to see more of!
Something new? Let me know!
I’m thinking raffle tickets will be 10-15$ a piece and the painting will be canvas 20 by 30 inches. A big ol Bertha of a painting if you will.
