  • ✨ANNOUNCEMENT ✨ Yesterday, I finally launched my refined vision for Goodall Creative—to explore contemporary art for the good of all and to empower others on their conscious and creative path (you included!). ••• To support this endeavor, I also launched an array of freelance offerings to support everyday creatives, professional artists, and arts organizations. ••• Learn more via the link in my profile! #femaleartist #consciousartist #artistsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #writerforhire #freelancewriter #artswriter #contemporaryart #creativelife
  • Blossoming magnolia tree in my neighborhood. ••• #magnoliatree #flowerpower #onmywalk #wayfarer #whitespacesummer
  • Stopped by @wolffgallerypdx this afternoon to check out @alysonprovax’s exhibit. I discovered her work through Instagram and was immediately captivated by her word art—the way it mesmerizes and inspires reflection through pithy truths. Standing before her work in person was as meditative as I’d imagined. ••• #artandabout #artandaboutpdx #femaleartist #letterpresslove #wordart
  • Finally made it to @1111supply today! All about productivity and happiness, they have tons of stationery goods and workshops for mastering one’s life in analogue. ••• #stationeryshop #stationeryfinds #livewithintention #analoguelife #penandpaper
  • Playing with color + shapes using paper from a marketing postcard (@shethinx) and stationery set spec sheet (@carleighcoureydesign). ••• #collageart #cutandpaste #paperart #abstractart #femaleartist #zerowastelifestyle
  • Thrifted some thread for 50¢ a spool. Not sure how I’ll use them just yet, but the desert 🌵 colors called to me. Love that the two smaller spools are wooden and I’m excited to reuse them for something once the thread is gone. ••• #thriftstorefinds #zerowastelifestyle #colorinspiration #pursuepretty
  • Such a lovely + elegant cafe to work in. Everything about the atmosphere inspired the right balance of peace + productivity. ••• #coffeeshop #workfromanywhere #pursuepretty #supportlocal
  • ✨New on the Blog ✨ FINDING ECO-FRIENDLY WRITING TOOLS. On an array of eco-friendly writing tools + how I use them. ••• Throughout my journey as a conscious consumer, I have slowly refined various elements of my lifestyle. As a young girl, my mother taught me the value of investing in quality, using things gently, making do when possible, and repairing or repurposing rather than tossing. However, it wasn’t until learning about minimalism over a decade ago that I became truly dedicated to a lifestyle of minimal negative impact while maintaining that which brings me the deepest joy and nourishment. ••• That last bit is essential to finding balance and longevity within a conscious lifestyle. Considering everything and challenging ourselves to adopt conscious alternatives is a social responsibility. But we must also have compassion for our own circumstances and customize our efforts rather than blindly or burdensomely aspire to the conscious lifestyle of others. ••• While there are countless conscious considerations to be made, this post will focus on finding eco-friendly writing tools—something I’ve been curious about lately. ••• Read full post on the blog. { Link in Profile } #zerowastelifestyle #consciousconsumer #livewithintention #writersofinstagram #writerslife #writerscommunity #fountainpen #pencillovers
  • ✨New on the Blog ✨ CYCLE OF THE SEASONS. A poem written by my younger self. ••• With my life in the midst of many changes, I felt inspired to share this simple yet reflective poem written by my 14-year-old self. This poem is a reminder of the writer I have always been, of the awareness I have always sought, and of the beauty I have always found in the acceptance of what is and the potential of what could be. ••• Read the poem on the blog. { Link in Profile }
  • Today would be the 120th birthday of Tamara de Lempicka—one of my favorite artists. The precision, smoothness, and elegance of her Art Deco style inspires me. ••• Tamara de Lempicka, “The Sleeper,” 1932. (📷: WikiArt)
  • ✨New on the Blog ✨ SLOWING DOWN. An anniversary celebration of Goodall Creative + my hopes for the next phase. ••• At the end of the month, I will be moving to Portland, Oregon—where my boyfriend lives—and settling down for a bit. A nomad at heart, there is also a part of me that craves the community, consistency, and comfort found in a stationary lifestyle. My spirit is a whimsical one, and I like it that way. But right now it is yearning for balance, slowness, groundedness. ••• Read the full post on the blog. { Link in Profile }
  • A quirky little air plant. I’ll be settling down for a bit soon and look forward to creating a green oasis in my abode.
