this is my love language. i used to have my friends + neighbors over in adolescence to sit on my porch and paint. every gathering since then has been inspired by that spirit.
some day i hope to operate a communal studio (plus other secrets) where we can continue body doubling in our respective crafts.
My friend group has a weekly craft night where we all parallel create our own projects. I look forward to it every time, and I feel so lucky to have friends that inspire me artistically
As I draw my friend playing guitar and my other doing origami in the same room. How nice is it to be close to people and not have to be anything other than yourself. Completely separate in activity but together in space <333
in pre-colonial Ireland (and in modern day) there are these sacred wells that heal ailments. my dad told be about one he went to growing up whenever he had warts. they work! below is the wart well in dungiven, derry.
anyways, saoirse don phalaistín.
