I recently stumbled upon Teagan White’s intriguing pieces of artwork full of a fairytale-like expression of nature and immediately fell in love with her work. An excerpt from her Facebook page:
“Teagan White is an illustrator of intricately detailed plants and animals, whimsical images for children, and expressive typography.”
“Teagan White is a freelance designer and illustrator from Chicago, currently living and working in St Paul, Minnesota, where she recently earned her BFA in Illustration from the Minneapolis College of Art & Design. Her body of work encompasses intricate renderings of flora and fauna, playful depictions of cute anthropomorphic critters, illustrative typography, and everything in between.”

DestinyBlue is a self-taught artist from the UK. Her art is beautifully expressive and unique. I love how each piece vibrantly, but softly, glows right off the page/screen-- reminiscent of lightning bugs and moonlight. Her works conveys the many inner emotions that girls often feel inside but may struggle with expressing. At least, this is the vibe that I take from her stunning characters. Almost as if you can find a least one remnant in each piece that can be related to. That being said, I also was exploring her Facebook page a little bit and observed the kind of soul she has. In dealing with slight opposition from a girl that gave her a not-so-nice (but not entirely cruel) critique, she in turn drew the girl (another beautiful work of art) and defended the girls opinions. This is a true artist. It was so pleasant to see such a gesture. You rock, DestinyBlue!

I wanted this specific blog to be laced with my artwork from Moth, things that intrigue me and just more personal posts in general. I remember in my MySpace days that I would write a daily blog post about how I was feeling; my day; etc. When I migrated over to Facebook, I -sort of- attempted the same to really no avail. I am not entirely sure why I stopped. I suppose it was because I began feeling exposed in general. I also look back embarrassingly at my MySpace posts (I have them safely archived elsewhere) and shake my head in a sort of shame. I realize that I shouldn’t, though. I am slowly coming to terms with who I am today and every layer of who I have been and will be. This includes accepting all the expressions and feelings I had put out there in a sort of teenage/young adult angst. I have to still commend myself for keeping a lot of my CORE soul to myself in those times but I now see how I projected it and allowed it to bleed into other aspects of my life. Some things are just poison and you have to do your best to work with them. That being said, this year I am taking steps to allow myself room to observe, accept and grow in every mood, emotion and facet of myself. I tend to lean on the more sensitive side when it comes to personality and often I have tried to extinguish that in fear of seeming weak. I’ve learned that if a predator senses a weak link in you, they take immediate aim. I have to realize that being sensitive and more introverted is not a weakness. I am better aware of whom I allow in my life at this point, I believe and thus I shall just BE. I am also taking time to observe, embrace and accept my inner child and my monster-self. I have extreme dualities in me that battle and at this point I am allowing them to exist together instead of chastising myself for inner contradictions. Society tells you that if you’re a certain way, you can’t be the opposite or practically anything else for that manner. That is nonsense. I can be light and dark. I can harness it ALL into art and writing. Just watch me. If that is a contradiction, who cares! My interests are VAST and my soul is eclectic. I shall allow it to be that way. This is one of my first steps in accepting who I am and allowing myself to express without holding back. It’s taken me entirely too long to write this due to hesitation in posting it in general, but you know what, it’s happening. Get out of my stomach, you, butterflies with razor blade wings. If we don’t push ourselves to grow, expand and be, no one else will. Thanks for reading, Moth
Ellen Jewett is a Canadian sculptor that has some of the most unique work I have stumbled upon in this medium. I feel she displays the actual spirit of the creatures and beings she creates. Each piece is layered with exquisite and stunning details. Mystical. Transforming. Intriguing. I’d adore having my haven filled with these wonderful works! To see more of Ellen Jewett’s art and learn more about her, visit her webpage here.
