Photography: Overthinking leads to Self-destruction. A girl trying to portray her distorted mind visually.
Too sharp sun for my badly seeing eyes.
I think a side effect of my bad eyesight is that my pupils contract slower than they should, or not enough.
Maybe I'm overthinking it and suffer just as little or much as the next person. Which, in this shot, were three other people with bad eyesight. Although mine, and granmas, is probably the worst.
i know this is simple, not really feeling inspired tonight, my head hurts. I hate feeling like this.
overthinking really catches you out, makes you feel like rubbish.
my emotions are running high and I just want to find the light at the end of the tunnel.
make me well again:(
This painting paints a vivid multicoloured expression indicating the overthinking Woh the use of some geometrical shapes too.

4me4you features “it won’t last forever”..
Artist: Jess Cochrane.
4me4you recently had the opportunity to visit Gillian Jason Gallery, where the artist Jess Cochrane presented her exhibition titled “it won’t last forever”..
In her work, Jess Cochrane explores themes of connectivity and friendship, drawing from personal experiences to create compositions that resonate deeply with viewers. Her paintings depict familiar, relatable scenes, capturing the joy and intimacy of shared moments. Through the dynamic movement of her brushstrokes, Cochrane conveys a sense of spontaneity and natural ease.
"I am not trying to make ‘loud’ works," Cochrane explains. "Nothing in the way I work has any element of overthinking; I allow everything to come naturally. That’s why I am drawn to leisure scenes: they are peaceful, natural moments, not forced or artificial."
Her exhibition It Won’t Last Forever reflects on our impulse to freeze fleeting moments, especially through digital photography and social media, as we attempt to immortalise them. Cochrane touches on consumerist habits and the passage of time, highlighting the transient nature of both moments and objects. Her compositions often include subtle details of personal indulgence—like food, drinks, or cigarettes—while her still lifes feature objects of consumption, such as a bowl of tangerines or a burning candle.
To explore these ideas, Cochrane participates in the same digital cycle, using reference images taken on her phone, which she then brings to life through paint. This interplay between the physical and digital worlds is central to her art, offering a pause from the constant digital presence and grounding the viewer in the present moment. Her brushwork captures the immediacy of the 'now', showcasing the unique power of paint over digital imagery.
"Paint has far more power than an iPhone," Cochrane notes. "There is a lot of familiarity in the act of capturing per se, but there’s something joyous and special about being able to take a moment and honour it through paint."
Cochrane’s figurative scenes often include phones, symbolising both their role in preserving special moments and their tendency to pull us away from the present. Her still life compositions further explore digital consumption and the excess of photo-taking, intentionally composed to mimic the stiffness of Instagram’s square format.
In a nod to modern technology's flaws, Cochrane incorporates the distortions caused by phone cameras into her paintings, subtly commenting on how technology distorts our perception of reality. This recalls the work of Cézanne, who prioritised composition over proportion—particularly evident in Cochrane’s bathing scenes—and whose influence can be seen in her approach.
It Won't Last Forever is a poignant meditation on memory, technology, and human experience. Melding the influence of Impressionist masters with modern consumerism and digital culture, Cochrane offers a profound commentary on the ephemeral nature of contemporary life. Her work also draws from Australian artist Grace Cossington Smith, who, like Cochrane, found inspiration in Impressionism, forming a sentimental connection between their artistic and personal journeys.
Through her nuanced brushwork, Cochrane captures the fleeting beauty of everyday moments, encouraging viewers to reflect on the impact of technology on our lives. In doing so, she not only honours the tradition of painting but redefines its relevance in today’s fast-paced, digital world.

Did you know that walking in nature has positive effects on our wellbeing?
It is especially beneficial for those who are struggling with burnout, anxiety, or depression. Walking in nature at least once a week can help us improve our heart condition and decrease our blood pressure. Our stress hormone, cortisol, decreases and our breathing becomes more relaxed. As you receive more oxygen, you boost your immune system and restore your cells. The cognitive function of your brain also improves! And all of these benefits are completely free! ☺️😁
By walking outside in nature, we focus on what is happening in the present moment. It is a great practice to foster mindfulness in your everyday life. After all, you become more grounded and grateful, you submit yourself fully to the present moment instead of going into a rabbit hole by overthinking your past and future. Allow nature to heal you - just walk.🚶🌳
I love it when all you need is to point the camera, take the photo without overthinking anything and the picture comes out better than you'd ever believe!
This piece of advertising above Target’s skincare area stood out because of its size and the fact that it is not tied to a specific brand. Rather it looks like a generic advertisement for makeup or skincare. Both of the women in the photo smiling with a carefree expression. Presumably the products are related to this mood; the advertisement is aiming to create an association between the two. Or they are trying to make the customers feel just as carefree as the women by looking at the ad, and they will therefore not overthink their purchases. The fact that it is so large, to me, implies that they think that these images are powerful and therefore want customers to see them. To me, this ad doesn’t really have an effect. It’s not giving me any helpful information or advice about a product, and the illusion of the emotion from these women is broken for me knowing that its not genuine (these are simply paid models). It would be more effective for me as a consumer if I could believe in their emotion or that these products could really make one feel that way. Makeup and skincare can certainly make one feel beautiful or empowered or carefree, but empowerment doesn’t require purchases or money. I would rather find ways to feel this way without spending money. The advertisement just falls flat for me due to how generic and corny it is overall.
There's a shot missing before this one, where he would need to turn a corner or something. Of course, I may be overthinking what is basically a montage. But I also want to get some variety in the shots. Basically he would run towards camera, then turn camera left and the camera would track with him.
