Why Handmade Art Costs More (and Why It’s Worth It) I know that buying handmade or illustrated art can feel like a splurge. And honestly? I get it. I’ve felt that way too. But here’s the thing — when you buy from a small artist, you’re not just buying a product. You’re supporting hours of quiet work, gentle creativity, thoughtful design, and often… a deeply personal story. Each piece I make is created slowly — with care, intention, and the hope that it becomes something meaningful for you. Something calming. Comforting. Uplifting. You’re not just buying a print or a mug. You’re investing in ✨ emotional wellbeing ✨ connection ✨ art with a soul And if you’re not in a place to buy, I still value your support so deeply. Every like, comment, and kind word means more than you know. 💛 #whyhandmadematters #slowartmovement #supportsmallartists #artisworthit #creativewellbeing #handmadewithlove #gentlecreativity #calmcreative #softart #intentionovermassproduction

When my disabilities made it hard to leave the house, I had to step away from my work as a music teacher and gigging musician — and with that, I felt like I lost my purpose. It took a toll on my self-worth.
 But creativity has always lived quietly in me.
 And when I turned back to art — stitching, illustrating, painting — little by little, I started to feel whole again. I began creating pieces that bring hope and calm to others… and in doing so, I found both of those things for myself too. Even with my disabilities, I’ve learned this truth:
I still matter. And so do you. So if you’ve had to pivot because of health or life changes — I see you.
 You are strong. You are still full of possibility. You can do this. 🌿 #disabilityandcreativity

Sometimes, painting is how I press pause. It’s not about the outcome—it’s about the quiet in the process. This is your gentle reminder to take time for you. Even just a few minutes can make all the difference. 🌿🎨 #taketimeforyou #gentlecreativity #artformentalhealth #slowdowncreate #paintingispeace

One year with Cif 🐱 Adopting him was the best thing I’ve done for my mental health. He makes life at home—where I spend most of my time due to chronic illness—feel lighter, warmer, funnier. He warns me before I faint. He joins me in every creative session. He’s my ridiculous, loving, bossy little co-pilot. Here’s to soft paws, creative chaos, and cats who heal us in quiet ways. 💛 #catsandcreativity #emotionalsupportcat #chronichealthandpets #artistwithchronicillness #mentalhealthmatters #catcompanionship #mycatsavedme #cifthecat #studioassistant #gentlecreativity #artandanimals #healingwithart #pettherapy #invisibleillnesssupport #creativityforcalm

Art has always helped me feel a little more grounded. A little more whole. It’s not about being an “artist.” It’s about taking a moment to create—just for yourself. This is your reminder: Art is a beautiful way to care for your mind 🧠🌿 #zentangleart #mindfuldoodling #artasanxietyrelief #creativecalm #artformentalhealth #soothingart #anxietytools #gentlecreativity #mindfulmoments #calmthroughcreativity #drawingforwellbeing #artismedicine #slowdowncreate #youareanartist #creativityastherapy

In a world that moves too fast, I want to make space for stillness. I create art for the overwhelmed—so you can reclaim your calm in a chaotic world. Whether it's an embroidered quote, a gentle print, or a cozy children's book, everything I make is rooted in creativity, comfort, and emotional wellbeing. Because I believe everyone deserves a creative outlet. Because a quiet reminder on your wall can change the pace of your day. Because art can be a companion through the tough, beautiful, messy moments of life. This is my mission: To help you slow down, feel deeply, and find joy in the small things—one piece of art at a time. 💛 Which piece has spoken to you lately? I’d love to know. #myartmission #creativityforcalm #gentlecreativity #artforwellbeing #slowdowncreate #artwithintention #mindfulmaking #softart #emotionalwellbeing #quietcreativity #artforhealing #cosyvibesonly

Crafting has become one of my favourite ways to care for my mental health. It slows me down. It quietens the noise. It gives me space to breathe. Making something with your hands can be so simple, but so powerful — especially when the world feels overwhelming. Here’s your gentle reminder: creativity is self-care too 💛 #craftasmeditation #slowmaking #creativewellbeing #gentlecreativity #craftingforcalm #mentalhealthmatters #slowcraftmovement #artforwellbeing #makersgonnamake #quietcreativity #mindfulmaking #creatingforcalm #slowdowncreate #creativityastherapy
