Wild Feminine art Series

One of my projects in art school is to build a portfolio of 20 paintings that helps me refine my process, develop my style, and amplify my artistic voice. I’ve chosen to center this series around the “Wild Feminine”—what I see as the soulful, instinctual part of the self.


Once I removed the people in my life who brought toxicity, confusion, and chaos, I finally had the space to focus my energy on growth instead of distraction. That shift has been a huge life lesson for me, and now I feel ready to express that evolution through my artwork.


Every major leap in my soul’s evolution has happened when I stopped surrounding myself with the wrong people. Because when I compromise myself for those who take power instead of empowering others, I end up operating from a place of disconnection and diminished strength.


I’ve met many people who claim they’re here to help, but what they really want is for you to follow them—to live how they live, think how they think, and do what they do. Often, they’ll even try to sell you the “solution” on top of it: their advice, their drugs, or their services as the path to healing. I’ve seen how common this can be in spiritually immature circles.


Now that I’ve stepped away from all of that, I’m experiencing real healing. My growth—mind, body, and spirit—is what transforms my art and the way I express myself. And now that I’ve chosen myself, I have the time and space to create from my own vision.


I’ve always wanted to share my creativity and energy with others, but right now it feels important to focus on my own path—my vision, my creativity, my health, and my style—so I can become grounded and strong in my unique artistic voice.




I love sharing my creative process in the hope that it inspires art lovers and collectors. As an artist, it’s not enough to have a strong idea, subject, and composition—you also need the technical skills to bring the vision all the way through.


A lot of people still assume the artist’s path isn’t a “real” job or career, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Creating artwork takes great skill, discipline, and study—from designing and drawing to painting and refining the final piece.


For a school assignment, I’ll be creating up to two paintings a week for my portfolio, so stay tuned to my blog and website for updates and behind-the-scenes posts from this series.


Painting Update, along with other paintings in the series *work in progress:



Shifting Energy


I had fun photographing burning sage—the morning light hit just right through the window, backlighting the smoke. That moment inspired the next piece in my Wild Feminine series: a woman savoring the beauty of clean energy.


There’s something quietly transformative about this image: a bundle of burning sage sending its silver-violet smoke upward, and within that drifting veil, a woman appears—like the voice of your higher self, an ancestor, or the divine feminine arriving the moment you decide to clear what no longer belongs. The smoke becomes a moving prayer, lifting stagnant energy, loosening old stories, and softening the edges between the everyday and the sacred. Those deep indigo and violet hues call in intuition and inner sight, reminding you that cleansing isn’t only about removing negativity—it’s about making space for guidance. And the flowers feel like an offering to your own becoming: beauty after release, tenderness after truth. This is what ritual can do—turn a simple act into a doorway, where clarity returns, your spirit feels lighter, and you remember that you are never alone inside your own healing.



Sacral Embers


Sacral Embers is a portrait of the divine feminine in her most vital element: the warm, persistent fire of the sacral chakra. Glowing in saffron and flame tones, she holds the kind of power that doesn’t need to shout—an inner heat that lives low in the body as creativity, sensuality, intuition, and emotional truth. Like embers sheltered after a blaze, this energy is steady, enduring, and ready to be rekindled into art, desire, movement, or new beginnings. The painting invites us back to the sacred intelligence of pleasure and feeling, reminding us that our softness can be sovereign and our passion can be prayer—an altar of orange light where creation starts.



Wild Feminine Heart Song


In Wild Feminine Heart Song, a woman rests in her divine presence—rooted, radiant, and wholly herself—while the world around her seems to sing her back into belonging. The chickadees perched above her arrive like gentle messengers of joy and resilience, reminding us that even the smallest voice can carry courage and truth. Below, globemallow flowers rise in warm, sunlit clusters—symbols of desert-born beauty, softness with stamina—mirroring a feminine power that thrives through change. Wrapped in luminous color and sacred pattern, she becomes a living altar of heart wisdom: receptive yet sovereign, tender yet unshakable. The painting feels like a blessing for anyone returning to their body, their intuition, and the wild, steady music that has always been beating beneath the noise.
