19.01.2022 Scared of shadows. Shadow; -a dark area or shape produced by a body coming between rays of light and a surface. I remember a moment when my twins were about two. We were going about the normal morning routine when suddenly one of them froze. Completely arrested at the sudden awareness of a movement that seemed to mirror her own. Each time she moved it followed and it wouldn’t leave. ... Within minutes the other twin was equally seized by this looming presence and it was incredibly interesting and a little amusing to observe. Up until this point as with all stages of awareness and development, the twins had been oblivious to the naturally occurring phenomenon called casting a shadow. But in that one moment it was suddenly all they could see. I had a challenge convincing them to move freely. To trust that it was just the light playing with their form on the ground. In the end after trying to distract and assure them, I chose to allow them to work it out for themselves. They could either trust what I knew was true or stay frozen with fear until they came to that reality on their own. I couldn’t take the shadow away so it was up to them to adjust their thinking. And guess what? They did. Once they accepted it and faced it, the fear evaporated even if the shadow wouldn’t. Hmmmm.. something to ponder on hey. Maybe as parents we need to stop trying to chase the shadows away and allow them to turn towards it and see it for what it is. This analogy is something I wish I had known. In hindsight I can think of many moments when dimming the light to make life’s shadows appear less scary wasn’t the right strategy for real growth. In fact without shadows our world would be so two dimensional and flat, and life wouldn’t have the depth of human experience and pleasure we all experience. #shadowsandlight #beautifulawakening #parentingtips #parentsupport

05.01.2022 I love my studio space.. it’s small but

02.01.2022 I have been sitting with this piece for months. So much I have liked about it but it had some troublesome areas that just stood out and I wasn’t ready to tackle. The problem was the parts I hated stopped me progressing and became the only thing I saw. My magnification of the issues stopped me from seeing the value of the piece. The lessons I learnt about colour and detail. The way I felt creating it. This week has been as interesting one for me. I have been carrying some bi...g emotions in me and this year is going to be so good but not easy. Beneficial progress doesn’t feel good but it can be so needed. I carry both hope and longing in the same breathe. And I have to live with this because it’s where the growth is and the value. Flaws in thinking can be like flaws in art making. We can hinder growth if we only see the negative and not remember the power in enlarging our perspective, moving into embracing all life has to offer and choosing to pick up the paintbrush again and move forward.
