In a world where things are always moving rapidly oil painting forces me to slow down and relearn my patience daily. If I move to quickly I will make a muddy mess. I didn't always paint with oils because I disliked the slowness of it all from painting - to drying. But as I get older I cherish the metaphor that oil painting tells me. Slow down. Good things take time.. . . . . . . . . #studiophoto #still_life #quietlife #slowingdown #flatlayforever #creativefolk #gloomandglow #folkandstory #studioday #workingartist #womenartists #livecreative #herestothecreatives #wherewomencreate #girlpreneur #cultivatecreativity #flatlaysquad #homeinthestudio #studiovibes #creativedaily #pursuewhatislovely #makeitblissful #waketomake #toolsofthetrade #nestandflourish #nestandthrive #stilllifegallery #gatheredstyle #slowlivingforlife #livecreatively
What sustains you or fuels you in your creative endeavors? I have always had a passion to create things, but also equally embarrassed to show my creations to the world. I was scared that I wasn't good enough, that my work wasn't realistic enough, never good enough. This stunted me in so many ways to the point that in my tenth grade art class I had not completed a full piece of work for any of my assignments for the entire term. Sure I doodled and played and made pretty things, but nothing was "right" for my assignments. I was so focused on creating realistic work that my classmates would see me create. I learned a really hard lesson that last week of school. Not a single person was watching or judging me. I spent an entire week working on about 30 different pieces of art and objectives from sketches, drawings to full on paintings. I passed my scraping and realized that no one was judging me in a critical way. We were all there for the same reason - Our love and passion to create. . . . . . . . . ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ . . . . . . #pursuewhatislovely #mybeigelife #seeksimplicity #simpleandstill #alittlebeautyeveryday #styleonmytable #belovedlife #artinprogress #alifeofintention #stilllifegallery #realsimple #dreamersanddoers #livemoremagic #myeverydaymagic #embracingslowerlife #homeinthestudio #colorlove #artfinder #insanelyinspiredinstagram #artinprogress #colorcrush #colorhunters #artflowsessions #womenwhopaint #buildingbossladies #girlpreneur #studioscenes #nestandflourish #styleithappy #vibrantcolours
Mondays are for e-mails and computer work. I can rarely get into a creative groove on Mondays. What about you - what kind of work can you best accomplish at the start of the week? . . . . . . . . #creatorslane #creativetones #colorblock #ofsimplethings #artistmeetsmother #workingartist #fineartist #homeinthestudio #styleonmytable #lifeofanartist #yycarts #livecreative #chooselovely #solovelysofree #nestandflourish #seekinspirecreate stilllifegallery #vibrantcolors #canadianartist #alliseeispretty #atilllifestyle #femtrepreneur #createcultivate #dreamersanddoers #femalebusinessowner #girlscreating #buildingbossladies #savvybusinessowners #buildingbossladies #makeitblissful #mondaymornings

I've never really been a morning person until I had kids. Even now I have a hard time waking up before them, but when I do I cherish these quiet moments to myself when I wake before them on the weekend (doesn't happen often as we have a 6am kid even on the weekends!). But this morning is for a hot coffee in this morning light. Are you a morning person or a night owl?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #gowildlyandslow #quietinthewild #whimsicalwonderfulwild #aslowmoment #alifeofintention #glitterguide #iamtheeverygirl #girlprenuer #femtrepreneur #artsbeautifulx #homeinthestudio #embracingtheseasons aslowerlife #embracingtheseasons #earthytones #simpleandstill #mightydreamers #herestothecreatives #ofsimplethings #flashofdelight #deeplyrooted #beautyisinthedetails #detailshots #yycart #fineartist #artcurators #todaysartreport #allinthedetails #simplethingsmadebeautiful #makeitblissful #visualcrush
