I have come to realise that grief is a beautiful emotion. The whole world has become technicolour, I have become Dorothy in a world that is no longer my making. It is an emotion that has me realising that all is possible, and that fear is a wisp of smoke and nothing more. Of course I feel the deep cuts, the rawness of it all but it is in that rawness and vulnerability, I sense how alive every second is. Every second is colours dashed across a blank canvas, the first bird song or the smell of freshly baked bread. Making it beautiful is the lesson.

Darling heart

I adore your inquiries .

I feel like I was born to make it beautiful . A purpose woven deep in to my blood , bones and cells . ( I know you feel this too ) . It feels ancestral and ethereal . I was created to create beauty .

To experience all parts of life and to paint the story in what ever way feels alive for others to FEEL something . Connection at the core of it .

As artists it is our innate job to transmute the unfathomable into beauty . For others to digest it in a way that has their heart wide open . Heartbreakingly beautiful . Softening , to see their own humanity written in the scripts . Some will be ready some will not .

I could write for days about this

But now it’s time for me to pick up the pen and write by candlelight as my daughter sleeps .

Xxx
