Living With Myself

from $28.00

Postpartum for me was easier in some ways than I thought and hard in others. The relationship with my body was pretty good throughout my pregnancy and even after my C-section I thought I was feeling pretty good considering what I had been through. But this seemed to kick in around month 3 and I was experiencing that familiar feeling that most women I know feel: I didn’t recognize myself in the mirror and it was hard to just stare at myself as I got ready. These new rolls, and excess skin were sticking around and felt like they weren’t going anywhere. I randomly wanted to do an art therapy exercise and I got a mirror and started to draw. It was EXTREMELY uncomfortable at first. And to be honest, I tried to edit as I drew, tried to make my arm thinner, make my waist slimmer, etc. It was really hard to truly draw what was in front of me. Once I did, I couldn’t stop. I was now obsessed with these romantic curved lines, and these lines that didn’t seem to have an end or a any sharpness. In a world that is constantly so critical of women, and especially postpartum women, we need to not only learn to live with ourselves but LOVE ourselves. It is such a simple concept yet 100% easier said than done. I hope this painting helps you celebrate your own round lines and romantic curves.

Started this year as a family of three and ended it as a family of 4 with so many incredibly fun memories. Captured a few of the good ones on film and I may or may not have printed out these film pictures 3 times accidentally. 🤦🏼‍♀️ it’s
