Sometimes you really just have to stick with your first idea and go for it. I have been rethinking my painting portfolio over and over again when all i wanted to do was paint 😭 Finally I returned to the first paintings I made this year exploring my relationship between my body and intimacy. I don’t really like drawing myself so this is a bit of a challenge.

i get obsessed with my paiNtings while i make them. they stay with me all day—i stare at the pIctures i took, overanalyze every detail, plan my next move. i dReam of them. i’ll look you in the eYes, i’ll listen to you, but i pRomise you, i’m thinking about that painting.
and then, when i feel it coming to an enD, something shifts. a new idea takes hold. i start it, juggle both for a whiLe—until the old one feels distant, duLl. or maybe it’s just that the new one has taken oVer.

I feel like middle aged or older adults have such a good sense of themselves, at least from an outside perspective. Everyone I know from family to co-worker to teacher who is within this age range is so easy to describe. Their characteristics are easy to point out and their personality is very clear. I feel like this isn't as true for young adults and teens and especially not for kids. Maybe it's because we're open to changing ourselves more and definition hinders our ability to grow. I feel like this is obvious but an observation non the less.

Wanted to share this rather elaborate cake I made that I'm pretty proud of. This is a vanilla sponge and chocolate brownie cake with ganache filling and a hot cross bun gin and tonic buttercream with some cinnamon infused brown butter cookies and tonic sugar shards to boot. The sun hit the sugar perfectly at the time of photographing (:

I use it for everything, anytime I have the urge to pull up the notes app I turn to my notebook instead.
