galaxy

Caught up in your stardust
kisses, I reach for my brush
and paint a galaxy with only
you in it.

-Our little piece of heaven at the edge of the world.

When you’re sick sometimes you just need your book, a blanket, and that special someone 📖 | I’m currently reading Ovid’s Metamorphoses - I originally picked it up from the library about 3 years ago but I’m determined to finish it this year! I loved it back then and it inspired a great deal of my uni work | ‘Love is the force that leaves you colourless’ | #bookstagram #amreading #ovid #metamorphoses #myths #sickdays #relaxing #cosy #bookshelf #readinggoals #2020reads

📸 1, 2, or 3 || My lovely little Instax experiments. I really enjoy paying with the exposure, especially on a bright sunny day because you never know how the film is going to turn out 🌅 They’re all pieces of art in my eyes ... || Thinking back to my weekend exploring to push me on through the week #art #instax #instaxmini #photography #weekend #exploring #creative #adventure #rest #creativecommunity #naturephotography #brighton #brightonpier #westpier #beach

Nikita Gill’s ‘Great Goddesses’ was a lovely collection which I easily devoured in a day. I feel like this is the type of poetry which you could read again and again, in completely different moods, and easily be able to take a completely different message and feeling each time. Would highly recommend if you already have a love/interest for Greek mythology. | ... ‘Aphrodite, the Goddess of breathless romances, of honeyed breaths, of feverishly promises forever. They are too blind to see how often love is smoke and mirrors, used to ensnare like a hunter does a stag.’ | #greatgoddesses #nikitagill #poetry #sundaymornings #mornings #amreading #greekmythology #myths #bookstagram

Creative Friday morning 🎨 #watercolour #painting #relaxing #creative #nature #naturepainting #mornings

Starting the year off with this amazing book by @robgmacfarlane 🎆🌅 | ‘Underland’ is a gorgeous exploration of the land beneath the earth. It intricately weaves together a fascinating discourse of the natural world, science, civilisation and mythology... | ‘The sound of this starless river is like none I have ever heard. It has volume. Its volume has hollowness. Each sound has its echo, and each echo has its interior.’ | #gift #bookstagram #newyearreading #newbooks #nature #beautifulbook #underland #mythology

Same fountain years later on a far more wintery day ⛲️ . ‘Different me’ . #student #portsmouth #university #studentlife #winterwalks #friday #victoriapark #nature #winterphotography

All you can do on sick days is drink coffee, wrap yourself in a blanket and finish a book (along with completing your dissertation, an essay and a portfolio 📚📝) . . #circe #mythology #amreading #bookstagram #readinginbed #student #englishliteraturestudent #studentlife #morningroutine #fridays #coffee

About last night...🍸💃🏼🍹💁🏼‍♀️ #friends #friendgoals #cocktails #mondays #mojito #drinks

Ending the seven days of my favourite book covers with Lily Collins’ ‘Unfiltered’. This book changed my life a couple of years ago and I’m hoping it will have the same power now 🌹 #beautifulbooks #favouritebooks #reread #unfiltered #lilycollins #bookstagram #readinginbed #motivation #selfhelp #selflove

Over the past few days I have been posting my favourite book covers. My pick my day 6 is this absolutely stunning copy of Grimm’s Fairy Tales, illustrated by Arthur Rackham 🥰 #bookstagram #beautifulbooks #grimmsfairytales #fairytales #favouritebooks #arthurrackham #bookcoverdesign #booklover #tuesday #morningroutine #studentlife #readinginbed

Writing down some of my favourite ‘Child of the Prophecy’ quotes before I put the book down and pick up my editing ✍🏻 . . ‘At the time when the clear blue of late afternoon began to dim and darken, as if a brush had been drawn across the vast expanse of sky to paint it in the shade of dried lavender, the hue of a dove’s wing, the colour of lichen on ancient stone, I went out barefoot, down the rough-hewn steps, all the way down to a place where great flat rocks raised their backs above the sea on the south side of the Needle. There would be times when the water washed the creviced surface of these monumental stones; even now, their secret corners held tiny pools, each with its delicate share of life: fragile sea creatures, clinging, fronded anemones and iridescent fishlings no longer than a single eyelash.’ . . #readinginbed #amreading #fantasy #celtic #morningroutine #creative #amediting #dissertation #inspiration #amwriting #studentlife

Circe is the next gorgeous book coming up on my reading list! I can’t believe it’s taken me so long to get to it but once I saw it was shortlisted for the Waterstones Book of the Year award, I knew it couldn’t wait any longer 🌼 | ‘Breathing life into the ancient world, Madeline Miller weaves an intoxicating tale of gods and heroes, magic and monsters, survival and transformation.’ | #mythretelling #myth #circe #waterstones #bookoftheyear #amreading #beautifulbooks #bookstagram #dissertation #research #studentlife #reading #englishliteraturestudent #winterreads
