Falling Bird Life without colour, creativity and art is no life I could ever be apart of.

Here is a reminder to make time for yourself.

Life is busy, we are rewarded for working on fumes and producing more for less quality. Burnout is as common as a cold.

But we have to stop. We need to remember to enjoy life and actually live it, before we miss it.

We only have this moment once.

I am so excited to show my packaging process with you all.

I hope to make many more of these and I have many more things I want to share on here.

Thank you for being here, this is only the start.

The fig has many interesting meanings in art. In Medieval Christian art, they were symbols of shame and temptation.

The fig leaf campaign started, which in 1563, did not help the fig's reputation either. During this campaign, n**e figures in paintings and in sculpture were censored by painting or sculpting fig leaves on the n**e figures.

Before this, the n**e body was seen as sacred and holy, but it is a different story today.

In Genesis, Adam and Eve ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Doing so, they lost their innocence, and in their shame, they covered themselves with fig leaves.

This one moment connected this fruit and its tree to the meaning of self-awareness and security that would send a ripple off into history and art.

Growing up we had a small tree in our yard. I always thought it was just a normal tree.

Turns out, it's a fig tree. I only noticed the small purple and green fruits appear in the kitchen, as a teenager.

All the years I have been seeing these fruits appear in our kitchen and I never thought of where they come from.

The difference between being looked at and being seen, to me.

Posting and sharing is easy, but that only lets people look at your photos, letting people see you is a completely different thing.

It includes what you do and what you want to say to those around you. It's so much more than just a photo you post.

One of the coolest parts of my job right now, are the brands we work with.

A younger version of myself used to be insecure and worried that my work would stay small scale. I must say, that version of me would be proud and impressed.

And I am just getting started.

Still working my 9-to-5, I have realised it is easy to slip into seriousness and gloom. The blues from a monday seep into the whole week, then the month and before you know it, you are a corporate zombie.🧟‍♀️

Life isn't that serious though. We live in a world of sunsets and sunrises, a world with good food, where we share and tell stories and can support eachother.

Every person, experience and moment is unique. Almost like we are shooting stars.💫

Imperfect and beautiful shooting stars.💫

One of my first memories of peaches isn't of a fresh and juicy bite or a cool shade in the summer under the peach tree that grew in our garden. It's of my grandmother.

Every year, just after Christmas, when the peach tree's branches hung low with the weight of fresh peaches, my grandmother would make a visit. She would pluck the peaches off the trees until they looked like they had never carried fruit in the first place and then she would disappear into the kitchen.👀

When she finally emerged from the kitchen, with her work done, she wouldn't be alone. Bottles by the dozens would emerge with her. And in them, sweet preserved peaches. The fresh fruit had transformed into a sweet delight that would be my favourite snack until next year, just before Christmas.

When I was a young girl, my friends and I used to put on wigs, play dress-up, and film ourselves, like we were Taylor Swift or Miley Cyrus.

Growing older, I filmed myself less and less, until the whole idea became foreign to me.

Now I find myself trying to reverse that clock. I want to show my art and expand my brand with my content. To do this, I am editing and filming again, and that inner child feels proud with every step.
