After a great deal of thought, I have decided to hang up my paint brushes.
Thank you for all your support and feedback - it has been really encouraging.
loadedbrush is the personal website of Philippa King.
Philippa is a self-taught artist who lives with schizoaffective disorder (roughly speaking schizophrenia with a mood disorder). A number of pieces of her work illustrate aspects of living with the illness. She works mostly in acrylic paint and collage.
She can be contacted at philippa@loadedbrush.me.uk

I don’t know what to say…some of your stuff was touched with genius…but on the other hand there is a lot more to life…it is episodic…for us…things get destroyed and rebuilt in new and different ways…I hope you find your happiness, love and find your way into the lightness of being. - John

All the best for the future Philippa. It’s been a privilege to know you and your paintings. I treasure the two we have on our wall.

I just saw this and i am really sad. You are a very talented woman, and an awesome blogger. You really made me happy every time a new picture showed up in my rss feeder.
I had computer problems, so I just saw this, but please, take care of yourself. I am still saving up for one of your works, if you are still selling….

I didn’t find you until recently, but making your acquaintance across the miles was meaningful. Heartfelt wishes for your journey ,
