Choose to see the Light

-

There's so much darkness around, it comes from every direction. People hurt eachother and end up unhappy as a result. You want to be happy, yes?
Then choose to see the light, it's there shining for you.x

Oh, Jessie, this drawing is one of my favourites!! Not only because of the message, but also beacuse of its impact!
There's too much darkness around, yes. The point is to resist it. To "fight" with our light side, yes! Or simply not to pay attention to it, as if it does not exist.
Thank you for this post! I don't know what has provoked it, but it reaches me just in time... x

More Cottages During Lockdown and a Change in Medium.

I've been thinking about why I'm drawing cottages lately.  Maybe it's because there aren't many people around where we live and on our daily walks we rarely come across anyone else which I suppose is a good thing as we're still in Lockdown and have to practice Social Distancing which has now become a very well used phrase in our language! Maybe it's this lack of seeing people around that my mind is turning towards houses and flowers? The ones above are done in ink. I love the pearlescent inks, they're so beautiful when they catch the light. The paintings above and below are painted in acrylic. I've been obsessed with watercolour for a few weeks but I felt I'd like to get some acrylics out again.
