A Revamp Of A Piece I Painted For Kirby's 25th Anniversary! 🌟

I've been working on patience,

Trying to trust in the timing of my tiny existence,

I come alive,

I stood still in the twilight,

I found peace in the quiet things,

How could I wish away all the in between?

Lately I’ve been listening to Kina Grannis’ “In the Waiting,” along with her commentary regarding her song (which I highly recommend for the heavy feels). What I appreciate from this artist is that despite the life struggles and hardships, she handles them with such gentleness and grace, something I find rare and extremely difficult to accomplish. However, it’s something that I strive to do.

It’s definitely easier said than done. But I want to continue to remind myself that, even if I’m not where I want to be or haven’t found what I’m looking for, the most I can do now is enjoy what life presents to me: this uncertain but (sometimes) exciting journey, where I am, with my loved ones by my side.

Thank you @kinagrannis for your thoughtful and beautiful words ☺️

Last week I traveled to the Bahamas to celebrate two bachelorettes! There were beautiful places to see, foods to eat, and pigs to swim with 🐷

I've been receiving positive feedback on my sunshine boi, so thank you! I'm glad you guys like him 😊🌻

Happy holidays, everyone!

This is probably going to be my last piece of the year as I'll be on vacation in a few days ✌️

Day 29: Double

Double the bird, twice the screm

"Don't worry, you're among friends." Is it me, or does anyone else get these mellow, nostalgic vibes during the Fall season? When the falling leaves turn golden and the weather (slowly) gets chillier, it's just👌 One of the reasons why Autumn is my favorite season is seeing the vivid changes outside. The gradual changes showing that time is still moving, even when it doesn't feel like it sometimes. I like to think that they're reminders that moments will pass. And especially during this time now, this gives me lots of peace these days. Anyways, I hope you all are doing well and having a good start to the week 🍂🧡

Something fun, a redraw of @oddgraham's comic about feeling regret (but not really). I hope you all are well ❤️

Never have I been so elated for fresh air. #california
