Dancing in a Field of Feelings đź©°
Last year, while recovering from burnout and depression, I began exploring bodywork —free dancing, kundalini-inspired movement, and simply letting my body speak. Slowly, I started to reconnect with a softer, more feminine part of me and feeling more like myself.
Each flower in this field represents a feeling I learned to welcome again. Shame, joy, sensuality, fear, softness, sadness, peace—moving through them all, not pushing them away.
The vision for this painting was vaguely in my head for a while already. A woman dancing freely, untamed, unashamed. And not long ago, in a voice dialogue session, I met my “softer voice”—and something inside me clicked. The next day, I picked up the brush. This is what came out 🩰
This one’s for every woman learning to feel (again). To soften. To bloom.

want to check it out first?
I know it can be scarry to buy an original artwork. If you have your eye on this piece, but would like to view it before you buy: please reach out. I can tell you about my process and story behind the piece.
You can come by in person or we could schedule a video call :)
Every original painting begins in stillness—with a feeling I can’t quite name, a moment I want to hold. I paint intuitively, letting colour and texture guide me. There’s no plan, just presence. It’s a process rooted in healing, and each piece carries a part of that journey.
Inspired by the Little Things
My inspiration comes from everyday beauty: a sun-drenched fig, the soft green of spring, shadows dancing across a wall. I translate these quiet details into art that feels alive—full of movement, softness, and emotion.
Each painting is hand-painted in my studio using acrylics, pastels, and whatever else the moment calls for. The layers, marks, and textures are all part of the story. No two are ever the same.
Originals are more than just artworks—they’re moments made tangible. Owning one means having a piece of that process, emotion, and presence living with you.
And just like with every print, a tree is planted with your purchase 🌱 So your space blooms—and somewhere, a forest grows too.
