*** Breathe Deep and Wonder Wild *** š <3 Ā That is how I’mĀ falling in love with this bittersweet life and the great mystery of creation… finding joy in the art of living and loving. <3
Inspired by wild flowers recently, I got lost in the layers of the creative process and danced with the unknown until these paintings evolved as they wished. Ā I’m calling this the “Wonder Wild” mini-series. Ā A vase of Queen Anne’s lace, picked from my front yard (yes, it’s rather wild and weedy!), kept me company while painting. Ā I absolutely adore the outcome… the finale with the found poetry may be my all time favorite creation to date… or at least, favorite of the moment. š
I hope you might venture into them for a few moments and let yourself wonder wild. <3

* Stardust Shines *
* Heavenly Due *
The prose reads:
We are children of the divine
heavenly dew
Blessed
light-hearted
flowers
our souls
* These are the most recent offerings uploaded to the Loving Rd RedbubbleĀ and Instaprints shops, which offer several print sizes as well as prints on practical items like coffee mugs and tote bags. Ā The images on Instaprints are great quality for online viewing to dive in and go for a walk in wonderland. Ā Please let me know if you are interested in the originals… though I honestly don’t know if I can bear to part with the last one just yet. š
May we all trust the light within. <3
PS – Still a little time left to enter the Loving Rd August Give-Away for a spot in the new Brave Boots, Brave Hearts e-course! š
These are fantastic, Julia! They are so rich in texture, colour and pattern. I’m particularly drawn to the first one, Blue Moon. Great work!
Thanks so much! š I started that first one on, surpise, the night of the Blue Moon. š I only had a little blue and white paint on the back porch as the moon was rising and a paint pen. I did journaling about wishes and intentions and then set it aside and it became the ‘scrap’ canvas that I used to blot and catch excess paint! A while later, I saw a sweet story emerging with wild flowers by a pond, the moon’s reflection, and a dancing dragonfly. š No idea if anyone else would see it, but I love it, too! Thanks again for reading and commenting. <3
