Creativity Journal

This page serves as a kind of blog/creative journal where I share tidbits of current artistic curiosity & contemplation 🌀

As a mixed media artist I take great joy in the process of continually exploring new mediums & avenues to/for creativity. Some of this comes from necessity-the nature of my experiences with disability & chronic illness means things are always shifting, and its part of my deepest work to learn how to ride these changing tides with grace & humility, hope & ingenuity. I am often faced with how to maintain my art practices while flaring, or when disease & disability inevitably progress. This looks like finding mediums I can work with from bed; surrendering to the flow of not just creativity, but rest and the delicate balance between; stepping outside my preferences (& comfort zones), to try new mediums, and then adapting how I work with those mediums to make them sustainably accessible; and being willing to meet both myself, and the art I make, as being "enough" just as it/I am.
