let music save your soul 🌙☁️

Hello, stars! ✨ it’s Lo here

As you already know, I’m recovering from a creative block and a stress burnout.

And honestly, all this time music has been a key factor in inspiring myself again and feeling more motivated & in peace.

So as Tozo reached out to collaborate in this campaign, I felt it was the perfect opportunity to encourage myself to create again. They introduced me their new T6 earbuds and I completely knew this was the moment to come back and create some art inspired by my love for music and art…

…and it worked!

So I really hope you like this collab, check out this great campaign and I’m coming back with loads of new space art 🪐✨

all the love,

- Lo (The Stars Collector)

the sun will rise 🌞☁️🌙

“My mom always told me
to not hear my thoughts at night.
She says everything seems darker
and that everything seems hard.

So don’t worry, moonchild
If it seems like there’s no light.
Sleep through this night
and let the stars align.

Try to take a deep breath:
there’s nothing wrong with pause a fight.
The Sun will rise again,
and tomorrow we will try.”

to the Moon and to Saturn 🪐
(read below…)

“Sunflowers seek sunlight.
We all know that, right?

What I didn't know is that
on cloudy days,
they look at each other.
Looking for energy in each one.

It is nature that teaches us:
If we don't have sun every day,
We will still have each other.”

🪐 why do we need to be enough?

I’ve always felt so out of place.

Like there was something wrong with me.
Like I wasn’t enough.

One day I realized…

to be enough for whom?
Friends? Family? Society?

Why would even I have to be “enough”?

I don’t need to be enough.
I don’t need to fit a standard.

I am my own standard.
And I am be okay with it.

“if you are not vulnerable, there’s a lot less pain, but a lot less love”
⭒ ⋆ * . ⋆

"I stayed awake
hundreds of sleepless nights
wondering why
my heart has to be this soft.

Until one day,
after seeing a ray of sunlight sneak in
through the leaves of a tree,
I understood.

That nostalgia allows me
to see colors intensely,
to understand other drowning hearts,
and to love with the infinity of the stars.

Pain gives us the strength
of having the virtue to heal."

🌙

🪐 art & poem by .stars.collector (me!)

This work was inspired by one of my all-time favorite quotes. I believe its author is Brené Brown. I came across it in a piece on Pinterest by an artist I think is called "The man frozen in time." If you know the corresponding authors for sure, please let me know!

Thank you for supporting my art. I can't believe we're already over 205k stars.

It's incredible the wonders we discover in life when we dare to open our hearts.

I am a work in progress 🦋

“I like to think that humans are like a small collage of the things they like, dislike, fear or are passionate about...

that is why I think the moments of confusion, of stillness, of breakdown; as well as moments of hope, peace and joy

they are all part of the ongoing process of becoming the best version of yourself.

Everything is in constant motion, transforming.

Even when you can't see it.”

💫 I challenge you to name one quality about yourself that you like. I would say creativity for myself.

you help me grow 🌻

“lately I figured out
how important it’s to keep close
those who bring out the best of you
and who you bring out the best of them.

I want to say:

you helped me to bloom in so many colors,
to heal so many scars,
that I want to share with you these flowers
and to show you my favorite stars.”

we are two worlds apart 💫

“We've traveled the seas,
we've ridden the stars.

We've seen everything
from Saturn to Mars.

As much as it seems
like you own my heart…

It's astronomy,
we're two worlds apart”

(Astronomy - ) 🌌

🌿 note from Lo:
A little re-coloring of one of my oldest pieces! I started college again so I'm having a bit of a creative block adjusting to the new routine. That's why adjusting my old works to my current style is a great help and inspiration for me (: do you like it?

being afraid also means you are alive🌊

For a long time I worried about feeling sad at times when I thought I was perfectly fine.

That feeling of suffocation, discomfort in the chest. That electricity that disturbs you from head to toe. Those ideas that shatter the structure of comfort that you have been building.

I think I'm beginning to understand that being afraid is also part of being alive.

As long as we have a heart that beats,
breathing lungs,
the ability to feel.

As long as we're here
while life passes us by.

As long as we can exist…

be able to feel
and get lost
and worry
will be part of all this.

And feeling triggered does not mean that we are not or will not be fine.

We are simply humans who operate in a range of colors far beyond the black and white of well-being or discomfort.

I breathe.
Those waves weren’t so scary after all.

🪐 reminder: I’m here

“As long as I'm here,
no one can hurt you.

Don't wanna lie here,
but you can learn to.

If I could change
the way that you see yourself,

You wouldn't wonder why you hear
'They don't deserve you'"

— From “everything I wanted” by

🌿 note from Lo:

I had the privilege to hear this song live a couple days ago, and Billie said it was a reminder that right there in that moment we were accepted and welcome just as we are.

So I wanted to say that .stars.collector is a safe place for you to express yourself too. Thanks a lot for sharing your stories with me (:

I don’t chase, I attract 🪐

In a world that expects us to give our best potential all the time, to be productive and not waste time; It's important to give ourselves a break.

Connect with ourselves, pause and remind ourselves that you are capable and deserving of being at peace.

That you can work on your dreams, but trusting in you and without putting pressure on yourself to meet society's standards. Being present, being now.

Flowing like this, things will fall into place. You may even be surprised: sometimes what you want is not what you need.

Trust the universe.

“this is a small reminder
to the hurting souls
that what is happening today
is not their final destination.

The sun always rises again,
we always breathe again.
From all this pain,
flowers will be born.”

I send you lots of love
and patience.

love is all around 🪐

“love is present
around you
either in someone's laughter
as well as in the full moon.

love is around you
in the summer breeze,
in a caress,
in a friend.

love is a universal language
that inspires artists
to love others
and to love things themselves.

love is all around
but above all
never forget
that love is within you.”

on my own process 🛸🌈

perhaps this emotional roller coaster is part of the journey that is life.

perhaps these waves are the way to shape the new you, over and over again.

It's okay to feel lost,
It’s okay to be afraid.

this is your own process.

you will be fine.

walking with me 🌙☁️

you were there
when my tears fell,
and when my laughter
took my breath away.

You were holding my hand
the whole ride home,
walking on the beach,
or finding a pebble in the mud.

all this time,
you were here
even if you were not.

because in my soul,
you were walking with me

all this time.

“don’t worry about things you can’t control”

hey, you.
It’s your mind speaking.

Can you stop for a minute?
Please, just stop.
Stop thinking about it.

You don't need to solve everything. You can't solve everything.

I understand your fear,
I understand your nerves.
But you also deserve to rest.

You cannot carry the weight of it all.

Try to trust that everything will find its place on its own.
And live here and now.

If you take care of everything, who is taking care of you?

hey, you.
It’s your heart speaking.

The best things come when you're not looking for them.

2023 • let hope fill every corner of your soul 💫

🌟 note from Lo:

this time of year always has a bittersweet taste for me.

I adore the cheerful atmosphere and I love sharing a nice moment with my loved ones. I love the festivities, the music, the food and the dances.

But on the other hand, a small internal conflict is generated inside of me.

Since the festive season began, I have had a hard time sitting down to write. My mind wanders a lot, wondering where are the people who are no longer are. It wonders and asks herself a thousand times what my mistakes were or how far I can go. I get sensitive and confused. And I think a difficult part of this process is that I feel like nobody understands it.

So I want my first post of 2023 to be this. Hope, peace and trust.

I want to start this year with a lighter mind and with more grace. I want that if someone has a hard time with the festive season, they can know that I understand. That it is okay to celebrate and be confused at the same time.

And I wish you all, from the bottom of my heart, a year filled with adventure and healing.

Thank you for all the love you have shown me this year. I feel blessed to have your support. Let's tour more stars together this 2023.

Never forget: you never walk alone.

with love,
— Lo (The Stars Collector) 🧚🏻‍♀️

“in this world, it’s just us” 🌙

you feel like a spaceship
traveling into the unknown

you feel like a star
guiding me through my fears

you feel like magic, universe and air

How is it possible that so much light could give me so much peace?

“in this world, it’s just us”
now, ‘this’ world feels like it
my safe place 🪐

“I feel a lot”

Why do I feel everything so much?

Why does my heart hurt twice as hard?

I cry if you scream at me,
and I cry when I see something beautiful. I cry when I get tangled into my own thinking, and I cry when I feel loved.

Some people understand this, and some people may think I’m insane (maybe I am).

Maybe I should write a warning of my extreme sensibility on my forehead. I think you can already see it if you can stare into my nervous eyes.

The thing is,
I have spent most of my life feeling something that I cannot end to describe.

But it’s between missing (missing, missing, so much) and feeling like my head it’s on the clouds.

Maybe, all this sensitive heart wants…

It’s a hug,
sweet words

and peace.

💫

🪐 dedicated to all my sensitive and anxious people. Everything is okay with you. You're not alone.

“I am in the process of becoming the best version of myself.

In reminding me that storms are as necessary as oxygen to live.

Remembering that
I am peace.
I am balance.
I am freedom.

Remind myself that the best version of me is not always someone who shines, but someone who is trying to heal.

And that I don't need anyone's approval to do it.

Today I remember that I am the protagonist of my own movie, and that I don't need to control everything around me to allow myself to be calm.

Metamorphosis.
This is my process.”

✨💫

Hello stars! how have you been?

I really wanted to make a love-inspired edit of the romantic kind, but this collage is the kind that decided to create itself.

Sometimes artists create based on need and not desire. I have been very sick these days, and not being able to do my usual routine has brought me face to face with my anxiety. It has not been pretty, nor easy, nor fun.

I was on Pinterest, trying to find the focus and strength to be inspired enough to create something; and I started to see many paintings of broken women and butterflies glowing in the dark. A topic that I always find empowering and beautiful. That's why today I decided to grab hold of art to remind myself that these storms are the water that feeds the flower of my growth.

Thank you for all your love and for continuing to share my art. There is no greater reward than feeling accompanied on this strange and beautiful path.

I hope you're well,

- Lo (The Stars Collector) 🌙

“Loving myself might be harder,
than loving someone else.

Let's admit it:
the standards you made are harder for yourself.

Why do you keep trying to hide under that mask?
Even all the scars from your mistakes make up your constellation.

Maybe I fell in order to take the place of those countless stars.

The me of yesterday,
the me of today,
the me of tomorrow…
With no exceptions, they are all me.

(I'm learning how to love myself)
