Description We will rise from the ashes!
Well.. this phoenix seems to rise from hot chocolate too ❤️

I'm hosting a 20% off sale on everything in my store with code BLUECHRISTMAS until the end of today (plus free shipping)  https://destinybluestore.com/

I'm late as usual. Things have been a little, um, turbulent recently. I've been dealing with bronchitis and it's after effects for the last 3 weeks, as well as other stuff. Which has not been super fun.

Hope you enjoy this sketch I polished up a little. I wanted to create something warm and wintery without using Christmas tropes. The symbol of the phoenix means a lot to me, as I feel I have risen from the ashes and was given another chance in life, as well as on a more literal level - there has been some phoenix related activities in my life recently 😉

Hope your Christmas season is going well! Have you put your tree up yet?

Peace, Love and Living Again,
Blue x

I've been away from DA for quite a while, but seeing art from you still makes me really happy, even if its (almost?) spring time now.
It's not only beautiful, but meaningful too (and I'd be p confident in saying that goes for the artist too) ^^

It's amazing, seeing the phoenix fills me with hope for the future; I live in Italy and we are fighting against coronavirus, but there are really bad days and I can only pray that soon, very soon, the situation in my beautiful country will improve. Art, your art in particular, made this day better, thank you!

Well, that's what happens when you mix up Phoenix Ashes with Coffee Granules


Dumb jokes aside, I'm dissappointed in myself that I didn't get round to faving/commenting on this sooner. It's a really uplifting and encouraging message behind this piece, one that many of us really need, considering that when this was uploaded 2019 was coming to an end. I can only hope that said message reaches a lot of people, yourself included (Instagram hasn't exactly made me motivated to use it, but I have seen your latest news ).


Really hope you're doing okay and that this new treatment you're undergoing works for you.


Love and best wishes, from the scruffy dude who bowed when I met you at MCM London last October

Like the mighty Phoenix, you only "die" to rise from the ashes better, brighter and more beautifull than before!
Glad to have you back.
