The 11th Element Studio

Taking time away from report cards and working on two pieces at the same time. Talk about ADHD and an unsettled mind.

Funny how the moments that feel the most chaotic are often the ones where everything starts making sense.

Rain outside. Music on. Paint moving.

As a teacher, I’ve seen firsthand the difference that summer learning can make.

Students who continue practicing their skills over the summer often return to school feeling more confident, capable, and ready to learn.

If your child could benefit from extra support in math, literacy, or study skills, now is the time to register. Spaces are limited!

✨ BIG DREAM. SMALL ASK. HUGE GRATITUDE. ✨

I’m currently sitting at #29 in my category for The People’s Artist competition, and I would truly appreciate every single vote, share, and ounce of support. 💜🎨

As many of you know, art has never just been “art” to me. It has been healing, survival, expression, community, and the foundation of my dream for The 11th Element Studio — a space where creativity can inspire confidence, connection, and transformation for others too.

This competition also supports The Art of Elysium, an organization using art as a catalyst for social change, which makes this even more meaningful to me.

If you’ve ever supported my paintings, my vision, my students, my spoken word, my late-night creative chaos, or simply believed in me when I struggled to believe in myself… this is one small way you can help push the dream forward. 🌻✨

It's been a busy week back in my “studio”, but I'm eager for the day when I'll have the keys to a space that's truly designed to showcase The 11th Element Studio and all its creative elements.

I have been working on new paintings getting ready for an upcoming venders night. It’s been fun working with new mediums, textures and styles. Would love to know what’s everyone’s favourite so far?

Playing around with texture. This was a fun piece to make.

Title: Released, Not Lost

Dandelion Series No. 9

Acrylic on canvas
February 2026

This painting began with a different intention, but shifted as life unfolded. During this period, trust was tested, openness was met with loss, and certainty gave way to reflection.

Created under the last full moon of February, the work marks a moment of renewed spiritual awakening. The dandelion stands rooted beneath a darkened sky, releasing its seeds into the unknown. What drifts away is not abandoned, but offered—each seed carrying what could no longer be held.

The moon remains present as witness rather than guide.

Released, Not Lost reflects the quiet strength required to let go without bitterness, and the understanding that release is not erasure, but transformation.
