Welcome to the Art Journal.
Below are a series of Digital collages I completed during what could best be defined as my “dark night of the soul.” This blog is here for those who are finding their way through their dark night.
Shine bright. Those stuck in the dark need your light to find their own. ~LoreleiSkye

The Day I Became a Mermaid
Little girls often fantasize about being mermaids. I loved to swim when I was a kid, so naturally, I lived in the water as much as possible, pretending to be a mermaid, a dolphin. Water is like air to me, dreamy like heaven. Free. I left day-dreams of Mermaid-ing...
Mandelbrot
#Mandelbrot coined it the “thumbprint of God” this delicate infinite tapestry of life force. Almost instantly I wanted to become one with it. Then I realized I AM. And so are You..... I can see the circus of life, be in the circus, bestill the circus. I close my eyes,...

Don’t Look Back, She Said
Do you believe in true love? I do. And I truly wanted to believe that I had found it; he was mine, I was his, we were meant for one another. I gave it my very all, every essence of my being. Blood. Sweat. Tears. What I came to realize was that my BEing was evolving,...
My Best Friend, Anger
There was a time when I felt like I was damaged goods. I thought my mind was broken beyond repair. No professionals ever told me I was broken. I hadn't been diagnosed with any particular mental illness or handicap. But I thought, maybe they were just protecting me...
I’ll Take a Frontal Lobotomy, Please
I would sit there in the therapists' office, day after day, telling her I just wanted to be normal. I simply knew I didn't feel or think or even talk, like most people. I was kind of odd. I would easily cry in random conversations. The slightest things could trigger a...
