Here’s my latest artwork, called ‘Rediscovering My Lightness’. It’s an artwork I created in response to how I’ve been coping as a new Mum – sometimes I easily find myself getting bogged down in ‘doing it right’ rather than trusting in my ability to find joy and solutions in the moment … so this artwork focuses on intentionally lightening up and enjoying some playtime!!
I’m really enjoying working on boards again – there’s such a strong, permanent feel to them and I think it’s pretty lovely to see the artwork extend down the sides.
I used some different techniques here – like layering the paint onto the board and then scratching into the surface
This is another artwork that will go into my new revamped webshop when I relaunch next year after my maternity hiatus … It feels good to have that emerging on the horizon.
Hope you’re having a lovely festive season so far xx

Beautiful, Chrissy! Just let go. You know, like when you're caught in a current? If you just let yourself go, eventually the current dies out and you can push off whichever way you want to go. Letting go has been the hardest part of being a mother for me. I'm looking forward to seeing you relaunch, too!
LOVELY work Chrissy!
Have been thinking about you and how your little family is. I hope you have a beautiful Christmas with your husband and this years little present x
Kath, I LOVE what you've said here. I really do look back on it from time to time as a reminder. I'd love to practice this more x
Julie - Thanks so much! And to you x
