A grounding practice for 2024 🌿 + zodiac paintings ✨
Hi Reader!
It's my last email newsletter for 2023, and I want to share my gratitude and love for the continued support for my work and small business. I know it hasn't been an easy year for many people, and so much is happening in the world that also needs our attention and action. It's not lost on me that continuing to be able to design, create, and make art and having the freedom to do so in peace is not afforded to everyone and is something I deeply treasure. So thank you.
Just a quick note to mention that, after almost a year, the Inner Star Oracle decks just arrived this morning and are back in stock! All pre-orders will be going out over the next couple of days. If you've also been waiting a long time to get your copy, now is the best time to have it shipped before the holiday break.
I hope you enjoy today's email 😊
A grounding practice for 2024 🌿
As we near the end of the year, it's natural to reflect on the past year and turn our minds to what we hope to experience in 2024. What can happen is we tend to forget these intentions a few weeks into the new year. One of the things people love about the design of this calendar is the grounding practice of checking in each month, with prompts featured on each page asking:
How I want to feel this month:
My main focus for the month:
Something I am looking forward to:
What I am grateful for:
It's a simple practice but can be so powerful throughout the year to understand how you are really feeling and what you are experiencing and celebrating.
Along with having twelve beautiful artworks to brighten your year, with the zodiac energy of each month, it's a magical way to stay in touch with your inner self along with the changing seasons.
Head to the website now to order your 2024 calendar just in time for the new year!
Original zodiac paintings now available 🌸
I'm excited to share that the original paintings of each zodiac are now available too!
Made using acrylic on canvas, they are spectacularly bright and visually delicious. Each artwork features the symbol of each zodiac along with elements associated with each star sign.
Available as a flat, unstretched canvas (which can be displayed flat in a glass frame or stretched in future) or provided stretched to size onto a wooden base frame (30x30x1.5cm finished) with wire ready to hang.
Each painting is one of a kind, so don’t miss out on picking the zodiac sign that you most relate to! Shop the original zodiac paintings
*Leo and Libra have sold!
*I've have another selection of original paintings created in the last few months exploring different subject matter, style and composition, take a look at what's available.
Work 1:1 with me 🌸
I'm open for new collaborations and client projects in the new year. Have a product idea you’d like to brainstorm? Need help with designing your business offerings? Read more about the creative projects we can create together. Let's create some magic!
To wrap up, I'd like to wish you a wonderful holiday period. I hope it is filled with good food and people, and some rest! I look forward to connecting again in the new year.
Sending love,
Jo.

Hi Reader, I feel like I’m only just popping my head up from quite a difficult couple of months. If you’ve followed The Darling Tree since its early days, particularly on Instagram, you’ve probably seen our sweet dog Mambo appear from time to time. In August, we celebrated his 17th birthday, not really knowing how much time we would have left with him as his physical health and mobility declined. Considering we had some concerns back in January, he kept going in his usual stubbornly...
Hi Reader, In my last email, I mentioned the extra study thrown into the mix of my creative life, and consequently, I've had to try and improve my time management and planning. So I thought I'd share what I've been doing lately which you can read below. Thank you for being here. I hope you enjoy today's email 😊 Reclaiming time and attention 🌼 There is, of course, much discussion online about our attention and how certain companies aim to get and keep it. Taking back (some) control of our...
Hi Reader, Happy solstice! Whether it's the longest Summer or shortest Winter day of the year for you, I hope this current season is supporting you and offering what your mind and body needs. Where I live we usually have very mild winters, and this year if feels like a huge relief from the extreme humidity we had earlier this year and I'm enjoying breathing in the crisp air! Something I haven’t shared much about here, or online in general, is for the last couple of years I’ve gradually been...
