Hi everyone!
Itâs been a hot minute since I posted. Thereâs a good reason for that.
I was getting burnt out.
As a lot of you know, Iâm home on maternity leave right now, and painting with a 14 month old around is not ideal đ
While I was painting my most recent order, she grabbed the pallet when I was painting and not looking and did some finger painting on the floor đđ
That means I paint at night, after the kids have gone to bed, and even then most nights Iâm interrupted because little miss wakes up to find mama is not beside her and she is extremely displeased. đźâđš
So something that initially excited me and gave me joy slowly turned into something stressful that was stealing my evenings and giving me basically no down time to myself ever. And thatâs just not something I want to continue.
Now, here I am, debating what my next step is. I still love painting! But I need to find a way to make this work a little better for me and my family.
Please feel free to message me if you need a banner! I would love to help, Iâm not closing up shop but I am just taking this time to be more mindful and reevaluate some things.
As always, thanks for all of the support â„ïž
Iâve got high hopes that my artist journey has just slowed down a bit, and has not come to an end đ
