❤This painting is about loving yourself just as you are, nature & spirituality. A personal response to the first lockdown, 'Rooted' kind of happened as I explored my Honest Joy ink drawings (ah, see the link with my last two posts...😁). This painting came from an ink drawing which came from an older painting of mine. I'll explain more next post - with images.❤ #mentalhealthawarenessweek2021 ❤ ❤Consciously celebrating myself and my mixed heritage (if you didn't already know you may have guessed I have American Indian heritage - also less well known is that locs are part of American Indian history too) was special for me. As someone who grew up feeling different & struggled with it along with low self esteem, to totally embrace myself and celebrate what makes me different / unique is significant for me. ❤Like many others, being in nature was great for my body and mind in lockdown. My awareness of it and its value grew and won't be reversed. At the time I painted this there were many ferns, bright blue skies, visits to the beach and we were seeing peacocks daily as a group live nearby. Faith and spirituality are very important to me and that is represented here. ❤This painting has been chosen for something very special I will be able to share more with you in the future. ❤Be kind to yourself folks x ❤💙💚❤💙💚❤🌈 [Image Description: artist with a self-portrait & images of the painting: the artist looks up, locs flowing down. She wears a red cape. A gold collar reads "she laughs without fear of the future". The background is light blue, a white circle with rays coming out is behind her, fern leaves are either side and peacock feathers show behind and above her head in a gold and blue circle.] . . . #beth_louella_art #beautifulart #colourfulart #loveart #mentalhealth #wellbeing #mentalheathweek #loveyourself #selflove #selfportrait #selfieart #selfie #fridakahlo #gustavklimt #femaleportraits #womenartists #feministart #meettheartist #isleofman #workingartist #fineart #contemporaryart #bipocartist #scripture #spirituality #spiritualart #strength #americanindian #nativeamerican (at United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO01X1XpOid/?igshid=zdwdmm1lm68v

💕I guess this is also a take on my 'looking for beauty & goodness' motto. Stopping to appreciate beauty & goodness in all its forms is pretty awesome! 💕🙌💕 This painting developed in an intuitive way, the lines by the text represents vision, the guy in the painting is looking through the lense of seeing beauty... oooo I like the idea of 'beauty lenses'... 🕶👓 💕 💕This painting is called 'Seeing Beauty Everywhere' and is one of my #100heads art challenge pieces. 💕 💕My line ink drawing 'Beauty And Goodness' is available as a free colouring edition download if you're interested. I developed free colouring editions from my Honest Joy art to share as a response to Covid and the impact on mental health. 'Beauty And Goodness' & many others can be accessed through the link in my bio or my website SHOP: www.bethlouella.com. Original art, prints & products are available too.💕 💕I hope you're having a positive day so far x 💕💚💕💛💕💚💕💛💕 . . . .

😁💕One of my favourite Honest Joy ink drawings! They are black & white though here I also tried out adding colour. Which is your favourite? I can't decide... 🤔 💕Gratitude / thankfulness / positive thinking / focusing on 'what is good' all helps our mental health and much more.💕 💕I developed free colouring edition downloads from my Honest Joy art to share as a response to Covid and the impact on mental health. 'Beauty And Goodness' colouring edition download & many others can be accessed through the link in my bio or my website SHOP: www.bethlouella.com.
