Happy New Year!!!

Thank you all for sticking with me through this crazy and hectic year of moving from California to Sweden. I hope 2026 will be much more relaxing and filled with more art!

This painting is inspired by the Swedish tradition of hanging star lanterns in the windows of every home, so even the days are cold and dark, the cities are lit with cozy magical stars 🌟⭐✨

I’ve made progress with my project code over the last week, but I’m a bit stuck now so back to research for a few days before Monday’s meeting – currently reading about planet formation round white dwarfs and last year’s stellar evolution module is coming in handy :)

Finally made my way over to Balfour Books. Such a charming little bookshop.
