Day 03: Collect
I sit with my grief. I mother it. I hold its small, hot hand. I don’t say, shhh. I don’t say, it's okay. I wait until it is done having feelings. Then we stand and we go wash the dishes.

"I'm sorry for letting you go." "I'm thankful for you holding me at all." I get hesitant whenever I post work related to emotional topics like grief or heartbreak. But, I want to keep reminding myself that feelings need to come and go naturally. Even if the process can be painfully slow, it helps me with the process of moving forward. And if my work can resonate and help others as it's helping me, emotionally and creatively, then that's okay too. I hope you all have a good restful weekend and taking moments to breathe ⛅️!
It’s been devastating to hear and read the updates on the two major wildfires in California, with so many who have lost everything. So, to help support the evacuees and the foundations who are providing aid, I am starting a donation run.
Donate $25 or more and I’ll draw you 1 portrait; it can be of you, your friend, family, character, or pet!
1) Donate to any of the following organizations: - American Red Cross - California Community Foundation’s Wildfire Relief Fund - California Fire Foundation (There’s also more organizations listed on Tetongravity if you google search their California wildfires article.)
2) Take a screenshot of your donation, and
3) Email to jeanettegchan@gmail.com, along with your request and reference.
I’m currently opening up 10 slots, but I will take more once I have completed these. In the meantime, stay safe and stay well ❤
"Hey... I'm not going to hurt you." Revisiting one of my first ink pieces back in 2016. How time flies! I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving and is having a restful weekend 🧡
Last week I traveled to the Bahamas to celebrate two bachelorettes! There were beautiful places to see, foods to eat, and pigs to swim with 🐷
Learning to let go, Learning to let things be, Learning to loosen the grip, Learning to trust in the process. Connections will happen, They won’t feel like opposing magnets trying to stick, A thousand knots to the stomach, Or added baggage on your already tired shoulders. True connections will simply flow, Comfortably intertwined. ---- Revisiting an old piece with a lesson that took me a long time to learn. And still learning 🤍
just you and me
