When she takes pictures, Jayelle Hudson (@jayellehudson) is focused on her control over an image, but in her abstract drawings she lets go. “I closed my eyes and decided to scribble,” explains the 31-year-old artist, photographer and entrepreneur. “I love the endless possibilities.” Having grown up in Washington state, Jayelle moved to São Paulo, Brazil, seven years ago. “I felt very much like an alien,” she recalls of her first months settling in and adapting to Brazilian language and culture. “Saudade,” the Brazilian word for missing something, is what Jayelle feels for her home in the Pacific Northwest. “It’s apparent in a lot of my collage work through choice of color, earth-toned moldy old paper and deep dark blues. In my photography, I find myself looking for moments that make me feel home, like foggy forests and cloudy beach days.” Photo by @jayellehudson by instagram http://ift.tt/1gNBzCu – Gatlinburg Garden Castle Rainbow Tower Library Imagination Station Temple Water Spirit Guardian Labyrinth Treasury Magic Healing
