This artwork sat in my iPad for almost 2 years.
It was initially meant for a custom deck, but we did not proceed with it in the end. It was my favourite piece, and one that I felt most aligned with when creating.
But I’m not here to tell you about that story.
I want to share with you how this one illustration, even without the affirmation, gave me clarity on my journey as a creative and visionary, and the life I want to create.
During the sketching phase, there was something about this piece that really spoke to me. It felt like I was sketching a future vision of me and how I wanted life to really feel.. grounded, stillness, presence, and with trust and flow.
It felt like the sketch was telling me that I can create a life where I could grow without losing myself, where my creativity could bring light and hope into the world, and where my dreams were not just ideas in my mind, but something I could slowly nurture into reality.
And maybe that is why this piece stayed with me for so long. I would look at this piece and it would feel FLOW.
Before the words came, the message was already there. And even right now, I find myself struggling to put words into this story because sometimes I find it difficult to put a deep feeling into words.
It was only last might, as I sat with this again, that the words came: I am growing with intention and blooming with purpose.
This piece continues to inspire me personally to creating with intention, purpose, and meaning. Not just in my artwork, but with life as well. It reminds me of my values, my vision, and purpose that I live by.
I want to create with meaning.
I want to grow in a way that feels rooted in truth.
I want to bloom into a life that feels unique and beautifully mine.
And maybe this is your reminder too.
love,
