Life Eh?!

Hello again!

I’m very relieved to be back in action after a major health blip which began towards the end of last Summer. I’m better now. Phew.  (If you want a little insight you can see a picture or two on my instagram @sophialyonsart.)

I’m back at the easel and painting and it feels, well… flipping joyous!

I didn’t wish to paint when I was unwell. This surprised me as I thought art would help me through but I was like a machine with no time or inclination to paint. I just had to get through each day and each night all through the winter. The only focus was to get better.

As I came to the end of my treatment, everything seemed timely as the Spring arrived… the darkness lifted and I could feel energy in my body again. Now I can’t stop painting! I don’t wish to dwell on how difficult it has been but I’m absolutely ready to celebrate it’s over! I think this is definitely coming through my new work which is exciting.
