Happy Fall friends! I hope you have a lovely start into the new season.

Been busy working on new patterns and testing products so I can share those with you soon and will be updating my shop accordingly.

What's something you'd like to see?

#artist #designer #seamlessdesign

Seamless design of pumpkin, pumpkin pie, apple chips and hot beverage in a traditional orange red fall color scheme

Ever since I started #sewing I have been curious about seamless designs. When I started to reconnect with my art I decided to give them a try. This is one of my early ones. The more I experiment the more I'm starting to find my style, but this is still fun.

I complete line drawing of a triceratops. Dinosaur is partially filled in with shapes, lines and circles.

Stared the day working on this triceratops (this one is commissioned by my 3 year old).

He’s looking forward to #coloring it.

Later I’m going to the zoo where maybe I’ll meet some new friends I can draw. Have a playful Friday all!

What’s your favorite subject for your #art?

It's definitely a great place to let out energy : )

Yep. We've been there. Went a few summers ago. The best time to go seemed to be right when they open until about noonish +- then it would get too crazy especially for littles. Haven't been to that location since they opened the one in MLT.

It's okay to slow down and take a break. Rest is vital to our well-being. How are you taking a break today? I think I'm going to make some fresh ginger lemon honey tea and savor that, maybe do some reading or writing #selfcare #selflove #slowdown #momlife #mentalwellness

That's awesome. And yes, selfcare definitely isn't something that has to be done by yourself 🥰

Hi!

Selfcare doesn't have to be big. It can be small moments that make you breathe easier that add up. What makes you breathe easier when things feel heavy? #momlife #integratedselfcare #selfcaremoments

These are so fun! I love it.

🙌 I'm all about just enjoying the process these days. Just have fun!

Ooh! Those look fun. Enjoy playing with them.

Happy Valentine's Day! While showing love to everyone else today, don't forget to include yourself on that list! #selfcare #selflove

Haven't made any art today (yet), but I had a really good conversation catching up with an #artist friend I haven't talked to in years and I picked up my #ukulele for the first time in a while. That's #self-care too. Now I'm having some tea in a self-designed tumbler. How did you care for you today?

Yes! Just the act of creating is good for you! Have fun.

I'm not surprised Shoreline is on that list. The last time I went they wouldn't even cut fabric until noon. Lynnwood was actually pretty nice. I think there's one in Bellevue that I don't see on that list, but I've never been.

Yay! I'd love to hear if helped : )

It definitely feels like they would compliment each other well. ❤️

Blue striped abstract gouache painting in a sketchbook on an orange mat surrounded by paints, brushed and other painting supplies

It's been a stressful parenting week, so this morning I decided to just do a quick process painting and just feel the feedback of my brush and strokes while taking deep breaths and just focus on what I was doing. It helped a bit. #artfortherapy #paintyourfeelings #selfcarepainting #mindfulart

You could try doing a process/ experimental painting just paint what you feel or experiment with different techniques and use it as way to get back into painting. So it’s more about the experience of painting rather than the final result, before doing a big piece. Perhaps that’ll help with overwhelm

Gouache #art piece with lots of dark splotches and lines and some color

When you try to do another #neuroart piece but your toddler turns it into a color theory piece. We learned that if we add black paint every color becomes dark. I love the texture he added though #artoflettinggo #gouache I'll have to work on my #mindfulart later. 😅

This is so fun and whimsical : )

Love this!

Nice. Combining these two forms is definitely on my list. Glad it helped you process some stuff.

Chai and zentangle painting you are speaking my language 🥰 have fun!

Thank you! Hopefully it'll include some art making as well : )

That sounds like a great self-care day. Have so much fun!

Looks great! And having fun and enjoying the process is so important ❤️

I would love that!
