This summer, I lead 102 😳 (!!!!) curious women in a huge field of sunflower. My intention for SHE QUEST SUMMER SCHOOL was to support them on their individual soul quest. A hefty task since there is no program for that. We entered the sunflower field together. Once inside, a safe place where we could shamelessly and unapologetically celebrate life’s rises and fall, twists and turns. As I type this, I feel them with me. The women. The flowers. Deep bows of every single one of these fiery queens 🌻for clearing space in their busy hectic lives for: permission and play, mistakes and breakthroughs, for being seen, heard and seeing and hearing clearer in return. As Gord Dowie nostalgically sings: ‘no dress rehearsals, this is our life’. Proud of them. Majorly inspired. We embraced it, that life.
Do you see them?
The flowers?
The women?
Blooming.
Opening.
Swaying.
Standing tall and proud.
Golden yellow.
Powerful.
Vulnerable.
Brave.
This is only the beginning.
I know it.
Yours in morphing, always.

For the first 30 years of my life I lived in creative hiding. I didn’t show a painting to anyone. I didn’t tell anyone I painted. Even my closest friends wouldn’t have known. The only way to find out I painted was too come into my apartments or have a glimpse at the colour marks on my fingers.
Being identified as ‘creative’ or an ‘artist’ would mean I’d have to sacrifice things like: approval, accomplishments and security. It would mean I was met with rolling eyes and further sayings: where did you go to art school? (I didn’t!... even worse). It’s not until I understood that my life was meant to be a work of art that the floodgates opened for me. That I understood: omg I’m a masterpiece!
That living an artful life was crafted in the stuff of everyday: like putting food on my family’s plate, nursing my plants, putting make-up on. With care and attention we can open up to the creativity that’s already in our lives.
My mission at @estelle.thomson & @estellethomson.art is too re-educate our culture about what it means to be an artist in YOUR life. Tough order, I know. But I’m on a mission 💪🏼. WE ARE ALL BORN ARTISTS. We have ALL a unique expression of soul that’s waiting to be unleashed in the world! Weeee!

Love you in works of art, always.

Quiz Time!!! 📝🖇💌 The one breakfast food I cannot live without.... peanut butter!!! The one lunch food I cannot live without … @offbeetfarm KimChi!!
The one dinner food I cannot live without…. LaCroix Sparkling water ( obsessed with peach flavor!) Sibling? ..... I have one younger brother who rocks life in Hawaii and one sister-in -law who beams in NYC.
Favourite current TV Show binge .... Broken Things. Amy Adams. Wow.
On my days off I ....... read & study: yoga, spirituality, psychology, love & loss ( hail to all nerds and book worms!!) Oh- and if I am lucky I go camping with my fam & friends ( can’t wait for Rissers this weekend you guys!) My outfit obsessions (that you most likely would never wear camping!!! Bahahaa) ....... DRESSES! Like this most Vintage, timeless yellow one from @fancyluckyvintage I snagged this summer (buy local people!!). Bucket list yoga trainings.... Aerial Yoga & Kundalini Yoga Teachers Training. Kundalini Yoga makes me feel like rotten garbage and so quite naturally I must take that training 😂. I wouldn’t say no to Austria, Spain, Greece. And mother land India is high up there for soul pilgrimage and self-made retreat. I live my ‘Eat Pray Love’ every day at home in Cow Bay but the thrill of travelling never cease to amaze me.
One of my Yoga Mentorship Student intention for her program is “HAPPY CONTENTMENT”. I love that. I’ve already learned so much from the 11 yoga teachers I am mentoring this year. Happy contentment speaks of the just place “in-between”. This is what I see in me when I look at this picture taken by @jessieredmondphoto .
KK. Ciao, ciao.
Logging off for the weekend, living my most happy contented life.
Love youuuuuu, I really, really do 💋♥️ E ⭐️ #estellethomsonart #estellethomsonyoga #tinkerbellestyle
