Messages to My Self

Two little collages came together yesterday. I haven’t done collage in a while (even though my collages got very positive feedback at my recent exhibitions). Feeling low energy and vulnerable at the moment, I thought playing a bit with paper couldn’t hurt. I took two painted backgrounds and started tearing paper and arranging it randomly.… Read More

Brain research shows that downtime is more important then me might think, not only for our body, but also for our mind and creativity. Certain areas of the brain even fire more strongly when we are at rest than while trying to solve a task with mental determination. Various kinds of rest and downtime can both replenish our reserves and increase their volume. I am a big fan of an afternoon siesta myself 😉 Have a relaxing weekend, creative people! #inspirationalquotes #creativity #takeanap

From the last leftover paint phase I had back in late August 2020. Now freshly put in repeat and ‘Ethereal’ is uploaded for licensing exclusively via @patternbank. #textiledesign #artlicensing #floralprint

Getting messy and expressive with peonies on the iPad, but without the mess on the painting table, and no charcoal on my hands. #floralartist #procreate #peonies

Being a June babe myself, I love seeing blooming peonies in my birthday month, but it’s still a couple of months until then though. So while researching peony quotes, a little google search on Vita Sackville-West’s life revealed that this Lady lived an intense and colourful one! Growing a celebrated garden must have been her least frivolous pleasure. #artistquotes #peonies #vitasackvillewest

The whole quote goes like this: ‘Your own reasons to create are reason enough. Merely by pursuing what you love, you may inadvertently end up helping us plenty. Do whatever brings you to life, then. Follow your own fascinations, obsessions, and compulsions. Trust them. Create whatever causes a revolution in your heart. The rest will take care of itself.’ From @elizabeth_gilbert_writer’ s highly recommendable book on creativity ‘Big Magic’. #artistquotes #motivationalquotes #liveyourbestlife

Some floral softness on the iPad this morning. #looseflorals #procreate #floralartist

Madeleine L’Engle was a writer, but painters say exactly the same thing. Picasso: ‘Inspiration exists, but it has to find you working.’ Matisse: ‘Don’t wait for inspiration. It comes while one is working.’ So don’t wait for that elusive muse, let her find you while you are at it 🎨 #artistquotes #doitfortheprocess #musings

One of the absolute pleasures of our global online world, for me, is watching lady boss business blossom and bloom, like women’s activewear brand @_peachy_athletic in collaboration with @lovemi.designs. From taking the leap and researching fabric printers, licensing a design of mine via @patternbank and producing locally in the USA, what’s not to love, kudos 👏💪🙌 @lravens192000 (while having three young kids!) @atasteoflife.ca @a_panda_who_lifts #womensactivewear #ladyboss #textiledesign #designedbywomenforwomen

A bit of black & white to balance out all the pink in my feed 🌸😉🌸 ‘Rose Noir’ and ‘Night Rose’ are now freshly blooming on @patternbank. #textiledesign #floralprint #roses #artlicensing
