Hello, rather quick one today! Little art post for the month of new beginnings. Check out the tag for more posts!

Imbolc is on the approach! And we’ve just passed my birthday. Thought I’d just share a piece I created previously that I think embodies some of the themes of Imbolc.

We have allusions to light, purification by fire. There’s something phoenix-esque in this to me – like rising from the ashes.

An abstract painting on canvas board. Features reds, oranges, browns and yellows. Creates a borderline apocalyptic background of destruction.. A sprite-like goddess figure stands and observes, ready to begin transformation from the ashes.

Hope you enjoy! If you want to see more of my creations, I’d recommend my TikTok! I do art reveals and process videos there semi-regularly. Check out the painting process for this piece below!

always used to get hung up on painting because I wasn’t “good” at it. now I just do it for the vibes, tbh, and I think everyone should because there’s nothing more fun than entering a state of play. you should be making art, not sense 💖 #abstractart #abstractpainting #acrylics
