Beautiful Fall Days

I went for a long walk today, And I started to wonder: What makes me love Fall the most? And how can I appreciate it more? For me, it’s not necessarily food related— although I love a good Starbucks Fall drink once in a while. No, for me it’s a […]

A New Day, A New Challenge

I decided that it would be a really great idea to start a writing challenge for myself. The terms? 170K-175K words 3 months (85 days until the new year) ~2,000 words a day!! I might be hitting a new level of delulu but I’m quite excited for this new challenge, […]

A Sketch By Moi

I’ve been really inspired by Monet’s consistent use of purple, and I’ve also been having and loving a lime green color moment. I actually love the contrast between the two colors and also enjoy sketch pieces like this where the lines are just made on a whim— no precision or […]

Music Inspires the Soul

Last night I went to the Paris Philharmonic Orchestra and the music was so moving, so inspiring. At times, I found myself closing my eyes to fully immerse myself in the experience and let my ears tune into the story they were telling. It was truly inspirational. This morning, I […]

Flashback to Monet

I took this picture on February 5, 2023 at the Philadelphia Art Museum. This is what I wrote that day after seeing his work: “I’m drunk off the art, standing in front of a Monet painting, and eyes watering from the disbelief that I am standing in front of a […]

Dreaming of Victory

I took inspiration from “The Winged Victory of Samothrace” in the Louvre Museum. She called to my soul. She represents the Nike Goddess which symbolizes Victory. Sent down by Zeus himself to aid in securing victory in a battle. On her boat, she is wet from the ocean spray. Wings […]

Fate Determined by Faith

Today has been a day filled with much inspiration, From the Saint Chapelle’s tear-invoking beauty, full of sacredness, color, and peace. To Concierge’s map hunting for the virtual “treasure”, where those walls once confined Marie Antoinette in her final days. Such a stark contrast, to where you can now buy […]

Thoughts from Today

What a lovely day filled with photography— I did a photoshoot this morning and then walked around the city to take cool pictures. In combination with trying my first ever croissant in France (absolutely delicious), along with a delicious dinner of escargots with mashed potatoes and pieces of beef (I […]

Photography Inspiration

Photographed by Elliot Erwitt I felt so inspired by Elliot Erwitt’s photography exhibition at Musee Maillol. “ ‘I don’t use colour in my personal work. Colour is for professional use.’ He obviously prefers black and white because, he says, it captures the ‘essence’ of subject matter, whereas colour merely describes […]

Reborn

A loose translation of this text is: I know that the seed cannot grow in life, but in death. What does it mean to die in life? To quite literally become disconnected with a version of yourself and walk away from it. To outgrow something in life that no longer […]

What is art mean to me?

It’s about capturing the essence of the divine; whether that be love, joy, happiness, sadness, despair, fierceness. It does not always have to be formal, or some dressed up thing either, because life is not formal or ever curated… It just is. With Love, Cindy

A Blank Canvas

Lately I’ve been feeling like life is a blank canvas, painted by the brushstrokes of my wary steps forward, guided only by my intuition, held by my eternal optimistic faith. My optimistic faith does not mean I don’t question, get frustrated, or avoid anger and judgment, quite the contrary, after […]
