Reflections and Decisions

It’s been a while!

Summer finished on a high note, and after a turbulent fall, I returned to the mountains proper for a new job in town. It was only supposed to be part time until I could move back to the city, but you know how things are… looks like I’m staying for the foreseeable future. This time though, I’m happy and have a place to go within the company in the future :)

That wasn’t the only change: I moved once this past fall, once to a new place in said mountain town, and just recently again. It was another big eye opener to what I could live with in good conscious, and although the rent was good, it wasn’t worth the worry. I’ve got a new place and I love it dearly :) in fact, I’m going to find some plants today to brighten up the space!

With all this change, it’s also made me realize that I want to bring some change to my artwork. As much as I really do love the style I’ve been working in the last three years, I do want to expand out. I’ve been feeling a bit caught, and I need some breathing room. Which is why I’m dedicating the rest of this year to trying new things and experimenting. The piece below is the first of this branching out, and I’m super excited to see where the summer will go :)
