#wip // layer one down for this #creationseries piece for @williamumsteadstatepark. #americangreentreefrog #treefrog #greentreefrog #earthcollection I'm abundantly blessed to have both of these men as my fathers. They have raised, loved, played, cared, taught, disciplined and encouraged me in two very unique and loving ways that have filled my heart with inspirational love and support. Their selfless, humble and protective nature have helped me heal and power through some of life's greatest challenges with courage and love. I have always and will always need both of them. They are so incredibly different from each other and I LOVE being what they have in common. I truly live an #abundantlife. Thank you will never be enough, so I hope I love you will be. I love you. 😘 #happyfathersday (Ps. My Gma painted that!) @williamumsteadstatepark has commissioned me for a piece of art and I'm legit jumping for joy! Pun intended. Umstead is one of my top 3 fav parks in this area and in my top 10 EVER! It's full of rich history, awesome trails, interesting creatures, epic foliage and every visit is a TOTAL adventure. I still can't believe I live just MINUTES from all this awesomeness! If you have never experienced @williamumsteadstatepark or it's been awhile since you've visited... now is the time for adventure! Follow, visit and #wanderlust @williamumsteadstatepark! peace + joy, friends! #localartlocalpark #ilovemyjob #creationseries #earthcollection #NCParkNCArt #treefrog Now available in my #EtsyShop! (See previous post) . Title: Closer // 8 x 10, canvas panel, acrylic, liquid acrylic // #FreedomSeries #WindCollection // $75, link in bio Brushes create distance between me and the canvas. Sometimes I need to be closer, so I use my hands instead. Its intimate, yet intimidating at the same time because I lose the control and precision I have with brushes. I always end up messy, but I never regret it because I get closer to what I love. . This got me thinking about relationships and the distance I use in an attempt to protect myself. I had the irrational belief that distance protects me from hurt. Nope. Distance hinders intimacy. . I'm learning intimacy isn't scary. Its just closeness between people. Don't get me wrong, healthy boundaries are important, but removing distance is essential for closeness with people. . Admittedly, I find it MUCH easier to finger paint than get closer. It's intimidating to me because I'm afraid of being hurt. However, I have discovered that intimacy with God is what helps me rebound from any hurt, full of grace and love. . I'm looking forward to less distance and more closeness in my life. Peace + Joy, friends! ☺️✌🏻 Ya'll... I seriously love hot and spicy food! I eat these babies like pickles and pour hot sauce on everything except pancakes. 🤤 There's something so dangerously refreshing about spice. This may seem random, however its exactly how I approach life; spicy, adventurous and divergent. Give me a 🙌🏻 below if you love the spice of life so much that you dump hot sauce on anything and everything just for the thrill of a flaming party in your mouth 🤣 #ilikeithot #jalepenos #hot #spiceoflife
