You know that sofa or chair you’re sitting on? That was designed by an artist. All the shows you watch, have tons of artists involved from lighting to filming to production. Your clothes, your phone, your car. Your favourite book as a child, that you will never forget. That book was once an idea in the mind of an emerging artist.
Everything.
You’re immersed in art in this moment.
And each one of those artists were brave enough to say: ‘I will stick to this because it’s my passion and it’s how I will share my gifts with the world’.
So when you meet an artist, at any level, give them some encouragement instead of negativity and judgement. Maybe buy something from small artists that inspire you (instead of getting prints at ikea). You may just change someone’s life.
You’ll feel better and they’ll feel better.
I promise 💛☀️

At 26yo, I picked up a brush for the first time, not knowing where it would take me. The canvas before me was blank, but as I started to paint, something extraordinary happened. Time and space seemed to dissolve, and I entered a state of hyperfocus, where each stroke felt like a natural extension of my thoughts. Hours passed unnoticed, and when I finally stepped back, I realised this was more than just a painting. It was my first experience of Flow, the beginning of a passion that would shape my life. This is why I want to share my art with you today, hoping it inspires you to find your own Flow.

"But why a panda, and what’s the relationship with 'ready fire aim'?" she asked.

In a recent chat with my best friend about my painting, I explained how "ready, fire, aim" is about beating perfectionism and tackling the unknown by taking action first, then adjusting. It’s for those situations where waiting for perfect conditions can hold you back. My friend was puzzled about how this idea connects with my painting called "Ceci N’est Pas Un Panda."

I broke it down: to me, the panda represents someone just observing, doing nothing – like eating bamboo. The airplane, however, symbolizes action and movement, urging us to start doing instead of waiting for the perfect moment. The viewer becomes the panda, watching the plane’s bold actions and questioning if they should also just start rather than overthink.

Art’s beauty lies in interpretation. My friend imagined the panda thinking "people are so busy," while I see it as a wake-up call: will you be the panda or the person in the plane?

In the end, the panda is relaxed, the scene is calm, yet the plane disrupts in the distance, adding layers of meaning. That’s why I love this concept so much.

But once you put your work out there, it’s not yours anymore. Every person will develop their own relationship with it. Also, maybe the panda can’t even read English? 😂
