Was lovely meeting at launch of the Connecting Artists 2025 programme. It's lovely to see the support she brings to such a great cause each year.

Over the past few months, I have had the pleasure of being a mentor on the Connecting Artists 2025 Programme. This programme supports artists in the neurodivergent community and those with intellectual disabilities to develop their artwork, working towards an exhibition.

Well, last week we finally made it to the exhibition in the Royal College of Surgeons and what a beautiful day it was. It was a proud moment to see my artist Bearnard exhibit and sell, his stunning seaplane painting.

All the artists and mentors, and those at should be proud of what has been achieved in such a short time. It's such a great programme providing much-needed support.

I been craving to get back to some painting lately. I think this fox was one of the last paintings I did.

Does anyone know of good resources for continuing to develop acrylic or oil painting skills and techniques?

Let me know 😌👇

37 & Shameless

This birthday sale isn't just about discounts, it's about owning my creative work, and my body. Starting my 37th year feeling more confident than I ever have, and truly ready to step into my shameless era.

So calling all my spiritual baddies and Celestial Goddesses, you too can step into your shameless power. There is beauty in letting go of society's assumptions and expectations of you. Drop all the external identities, and embrace your true shameless self.

It only took me 37 years to get here, but hey, better late than never 😅😌

And also, don't forget you can still grab 20% off all products currently available in my store. The link is available in my bio, or if you comment below I can send it to you. The sale is only running until Sunday and I'll likely never do a discount this large again.
