About

Hi, I’m Karen — artist, dreamer, widow, and now, blogger.

When my husband Scott passed away, my world shattered. A part of me left with him, and the life we had so carefully built suddenly felt unfamiliar and hollow. What followed was a deeply personal journey of loss, healing, and rediscovery.

In the wake of grief, I began to rebuild—not just the routines of life, but my very sense of self. I went back to the pieces of me that had existed long before adulthood: art, fashion, dancing, being messy, and embracing the beauty in imperfection. I started reconnecting with the girl I used to be—the one full of creativity, laughter, and resilience. She was still in there, just waiting to be found beneath the ache of a broken heart.

This blog is a space for me to share that journey—honestly and openly. Some days I’m strong, some days I’m still picking up the pieces. But every post, every story, every brushstroke is part of my healing.

Come along on this new journey with me. Whether you’re navigating your own grief, seeking inspiration, or just need a space that honors the messy, beautiful process of becoming—you’re welcome here. Let’s grow together, one honest word at a time.
