Succulents & Stress

To forget about lockdowns, home schooling and stress, I paint.

We all have our ways of dealing with whatever life throws at us and about 3 years ago I discovered that art can be exactly that for me. I started taking lessons because I needed to be learning, I needed to feel my brain being stretched, exercised and exhausted, no time for other, less welcome, ideas. And as painting was always something I thought I couldn't do, I decided to do it. I could only fail, right? But instead I found exactly what I was looking for, and I'll probably always paint now, because every time I pick up a brush I'm being challenged, and if life is not about dealing with challenges, then what is it?

So, if you want me, I'll be over there painting.
