The Supreme Ordeal
Art by Kassondra is here and ready to show you just how exciting life can be if you fully embrace it. As an artist, my mission is to immerse myself in the diverse landscapes of our world and translate that experience onto canvas. My work invites viewers to embrace discomfort and seek adventure in their everyday lives, inspiring them to break free from the familiar and strive for the extraordinary.
Im like the bear coming out of his cave after a really long winter trying to climb through the snow piled high to the treetops. I have been head down painting for this collection for the last three months and we are finally here where I get to show off everything I have been working on!
If you haven’t been around on socials but still receive my blog, I am happy to tell you my new collection will be available this
Thursday, December 5th!
Find all of the sneak peaks on my Instagram if you are so inclined. :)
I have a collection of 15 originals that I am so so proud of. This collection comes after 8 months of master classes and many brushstrokes. Learning from the experts and increasing my understanding of the craft overall. Through my hard work I am now confident in my process and purpose and these pieces exude those elements. For me these pieces bring along feelings of accomplishment, pride and gratitude for being able to pursue such a career. I hope the new depth and skill amongst these pieces speak to you as they do to me and you maybe feel a connection to their stories. Along with all of these beautiful canvases my website also got an update to bring my brand as an artist to its fullest potential. If you want to check out my new home page and biography you can follow this link here. The only page you wont have access to is the Shop Originals page as that has all of the goodies that will be available for you on Thursday.
I cant believe this year is coming to a close and I get to share such a grand accomplishment with you on top if it. I have worked my butt off to get the course work done each week while completing paintings around the clock. I know this year was the year of growth but I cannot wait to see where these changes bring me next year. I just know that putting in the hard work is going to lead to really great things and I love that you all get to witness it all.
What have I been up to the last three months?
Well, for all of my super fans on the insta you know I just had a big couple of weeks with friends visiting before the holidays. We were able to get some hiking done in between all of the forest fires in the mountains and explored the cities just soaking up each others company because it has been way to long since we have been able to get together and just yap about life. Cali made sure it was a perfect gentleman and stayed sunny and 65 degrees for their whole stay and the sunsets could never disappoint. It was a great reset before this collection launch and makes me miss having my girls so close to see their faces on a more regular basis.
For Thanksgiving I actually cooked real food this year as well as my first pumpkin pie! It was delicious and I learned that not everyone believes it should be eaten 50/50 with cool whip ratio but to each their own. Another first this year was a little morning turkey trot before we gorged on food and snackies all day. I have a little goal to run a marathon next year :o and am trying my darnedest to make myself a runner girlie. If you have any tips or really great playlists you can lend to the cause I appreciate everything I can get my hands on!
I am sitting here with my Christmas tree lit and fireplace running for the ambience and know that some of you don’t believe you should decorate this early for the holiday, but who am I hurting really?? It brings me great joy to see Christmas lights and watch the kitties run around the tree skirt and I think you should do whatever you can with your days to bring those little glimmers into your life. :)
I hope you have a wonderful holiday season and bring in the new year with a bit of longing for adventure, a little gratitude for getting to wake up each day and maybe a bit of fear for the unknown because if we get too comfortable life gets boring, so push some boundaries! I cant wait to see what this new year brings for both my professional life and my personal and as always your support of this dream of mine(even if you just read my blogs) is amazing and I appreciate you more than you will be able to understand. <3
