inspo, currently
Hi friends. A weekly or bi-monthly newsletter moment? Keeping it flex on the frequency 😂 She'll be simple. A cute little breakdown of things that are inspiring me currently, what's coming next, and what's happening in the studio and life. I say currently because my interests change swiftly and often as the true MG I am (if you don't know about human design go dive in). Right now what feels inspiring to me is manifesting into the artwork I am creating but who knows, in a few months this could be about drumming and canning pickles.
Ok enjoy 💕
.01 life
look at these snowy trees! stunning! We FINALLY got some actual snow in NYC this year, and the good kind you can jump in and make things with. And if you have a snow dog like I do, it's just the most joyful time (aside from beach).
aaaand ye old nyc apartment hunt. It's time for a new spot. That's probably HGTV on in the background 😂 and a screen that has now been refreshed 9,784 times in the past month. What a journey!
.02 in the studio
everything in this first pic has been completely painted over and reimagined 😂. Something I do enjoy doing often. When somethings not working, paint over it. Nothing is precious. And my favorite slippies 😉
This black and white pic! Something I learned from my awesome mentor, Kasia, looking at a piece
A. through an image and
B. in black and white,
will really help to give you an idea of the composition, contrast, and balance. Sometimes its hard to see with our eyes something clearly that we've been staring at for ages (life lesson anyone?!😂) Side by side with it's full color version for ref.
