It is called “Downtown” and that is also the exact whereabouts of the exhibition, right in the city centre of Oldenburg, in what I think, is the most beautiful café of the city Kaffee & Kleid. Its German name means “coffee… Read More

Pink Moment of the Week

I haven’t done a Pink Moment for a while, so now it’s time again, because it was just too good: This is a pink pigment I experimented with for painting. And it is special pigment for me, because it is a gift from my art buddy Doris Reske from her recent trip to Venice to… Read More

For 30 days she gives photo prompts, that keep you thinking, feeling, observing and taking photos with your iPhone – I joined… Read More

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‚Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?‘ Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” 
― Marianne Williamson

Would you have guessed that I painted these flowers digitally, solely on the iPad? While most digital artists prefer Procreate, I love Adobe Fresco for its unpredictable watercolour brushes which bring much of the beauty and magic of real watercolours 🎨💫

For those of you who are interested in trying digital watercolour painting on the iPad I have a whole beginner class on @skillshare on this topic where we will paint crocuses in the snow, a little harbinger of spring. You can find the link to the class in my bio linktree ⬆️ It also gives you a month on Skillshare for free, with access to all my classes and thousands more.
