This was the first piece I was able to paint after I got kicked out of my marriage.
You can see I was quite sad. It was a horrible ending really. If anyone needs support or an ear to listen in your own relationship, please reach out. I will be talking about the marriage more on my podcast as time goes on as a resource for others in that area, however, I do need to let things cool off first.
Usually, I only try to bring happy feelings with my art, but sadness and heartbreak is a reality too. We all need spaces to feel our feelings. I hope my art can give you space if you need it.
We do ourselves a disservice to bottle up our emotions or to only believe in the happiness of life, never looking at the reality of sadness. Being open to and recognizing there's many emotions we have the privilege of experiencing, can give us a more well-rounded wisdom to face future challenges with.
