Abstract Landscape Art Became Personal Therapy For The Soul

Welcome to Totally Abstracted. In this week’s deeply personal episode I’m sharing something that’s shaped not just my art, but my life: how painting became a way to hold grief, to honour love, and to find moments of grace in the midst of pain.You’ll hear about the hardest moments I’ve ever lived through — almost losing my daughter in 2021, and losing my brother the following year — and how, through all of it, painting gave me a place to breathe.This isn’t just about brushstrokes and colour choices. It’s about what lives beneath the layers — and how abstract landscapes can become emotional landscapes… a place to release, process and simply be.Whether you’re navigating loss, overwhelm or just need a reminder that you’re not alone in the mess — this one’s for you.Thank you for listening to this very special episode. I’m so grateful to share this space with you.
