The hero in my story: 22 years of us, do you know

The hero in my story: 22 years of us, do you know the story? We went to a particularly weird school with about 50 other kids and were seated next to each other from grade 8, we were best mates and hung out lots without dating, at 17 I moved to Sydney and liked another boy, Dylan wouldn’t have it and he drove 10 hours to Sydney and moved there to see if he could change my mind. I was totally shook that he liked me. It took a while for me to come around , but he played me very well and ignored me entirely and I got annoyed, till eventually I went to see if he still liked me, he responded with ‘take you out tomorrow?’ And we’ve been dating since that day in 2000. We’ve had so much laughter and so many tears, we’ve lost the world in front of each other and held our babies together, we’ve freakin raised teenagers and built a business we’re so proud of. We’ve had almost marriage ending arguments and glorious makeups, we’ve told each other the truth even though it’s hard, we’ve changed so much together. And here I am bloody grateful to do life beside this man, he’s so free, he’s exceptionally kind, he is deep as the ocean and sometimes as shallow as a puddle, he makes life so easy when it’s hard, he makes me laugh, he drives me mad, he teases me every single day of my life. Life for reals. Anyways thanks team for letting me go on, thanks for listening in. This is the important stuff.

Someone asked me about this painting the other day & I realised I only ever shared it once. It was such an honour to paint this man @jandamarrasart

Ahhhhh it’s happening! I’ve had this oil paint

Ahhhhh it’s happening! I’ve had this oil painting masterclass in the working for over a year & it’s coming out real soon.

It’s all the things I wish someone had taught me along my painting journey. I’ve written it to bring you back to yourself, to help you find your own style, your voice & your process in painting, not a copy of mine or anyone else’s. I don’t want to just show you what I do & expect it to work for you perfectly. We’re all so vastly different & need to tackle our making in different ways so we can make excellent paintings & tell better stories to the world. Man the world needs stories to hold them.

If you’re hungry to learn, you’re going to love this, if you’re ready to show up to practice your craft, you’re gonna love this.

Terrified & also can’t wait to show you. Watch this space?!?!

To be the first to hear when it comes out, there’s a link in my bio

The creative process is a real doozey! Don’t run

The creative process is a real doozey! Don’t run 🏃 when it’s tricky guys, stay a bit longer, your ideas are good. You can make bad things, it doesn’t mean you’re bad, it means you’re still learning. I have SOOOOO far to go. Like I’m basically a beginner artist, I get frustrated and overwhelmed all the freakin’ time. BUT I have learned to get used to my crazy and give things a little bit longer. A little bit of grace and I can find something good in both myself and the work I make.

Artworks featured: Soft pastel & Graphite Portrait drawing of my son Toby.
