Embracing the artistic flow.

When I moved to my new house in 2018, something inside me clicked. The change in environment was exactly what I needed. It's like a switch was flipped, and I found myself painting like a mad woman. The creative energy just flooded out of me, and I couldn't stop. It was as though all the ideas and inspiration that had been waiting in the wings finally had the space to breathe.

Before making this leap, I spent about six months studying and preparing myself. I wanted to feel confident in my craft and truly understand what it means to start painting and living an artist's life (including my day job ;). That time of learning was essential, but it was only after I took the plunge that I really found my rhythm. And since then, I've fallen in love with the process.

I also have a background in Fine Arts— I took a year of studies at university eons ago, which planted the seeds for my creative journey. Though it feels like a lifetime ago, those classes shaped somewhat (or not at all) the way I approach art today.

Being an artist isn't just about painting—it's about expressing myself, exploring new ideas, and experiencing the world through my art. I feel more connected to who I am than ever and the magic I always crave in life.
