1. An favourite Art Journal page from years ago 💕
2. Art Journaling this week 📖
3. A book that has probably already changed my life, and I only bought it yesterday
4. Cosmic Sludge, a piece I submitted to the Art Exhibition that is on currently at , curated by
4. A collage draft when I was playing around with the Cosmic Sludge idea
5. A fabulous birthday present for a therapist! 🎁

This week was one of those weeks that reminded me that any semblance of control we may feel over our lives is an illusion!
Cosmic Sludge is a phrase that came to me when I was coming to terms with my own Matresence several years ago. It described my feeling of being a dissolving, reanimating, magical mess in a cocoon, preparing to emerge as something entirely new.
The irony of it is, when I wrote the piece description for the exhibition recently, I wrote about that stage in the past tense. But this week has reminded me that the evolution of growth and change as a m/other is never-ending. Or maybe all of life is transition, dissolving and reforming, over and over?

Anyway, it’s been a bu**er of a week and I am, as ever, so grateful to art, to journaling, for helping me process and feel and let things go!

It’s my birthday today! Honestly it’s been a bloody disastrous few days and sadly I’ve had to cancel every single plan I’d made and am celebrating it alone with a sickly kid 😅 (although made to feel very seen, supported and loved by friends and family from afar). I am definitely sharing this for sympathy!!! 🎻

BUT after a very sad and stressful yesterday, today I have accepted my fate and we are hunkered down, cosy and with all necessary provisions and my little one already seems to be on the mend ❤️‍🩹🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

I’m here to share because I have been taking a look back at the last year and I feel very proud of who I’ve been and how I’ve connected to life in the last 365 days. I love Art Club Devon, I love finding community through art, I love sharing the myriad benefits of creativity, and I love my life and I am very grateful to anyone here for being part of Art Club. Thank you for making the first year of my forties a gorgeous one 🥰

That’s what Katy, one of our lovely class participants, said this week 🥰✨

How nice is it to just be shown different ways to make art, be led by new ideas, and have a play?
