The last pages in my main sketchbook. I have been The last pages in my main sketchbook.

I have been going through quite an abstract/spiritual phase for the last months and didn’t show that body of work here (but might in the future, I have something planned 😉).

An unsuccessful client commission brought me back to loose florals recently and I enjoyed all that was blooming in April and May - cherry blossoms, irises, poppies, peonies. 

And as it is - out with the old, in with new - I started a new sketchbook straight away.

Summer is just around the corner and it definitely Summer is just around the corner and it definitely shows in my recent @patternbank sales. I love that the prints show the broad range of materials I work with - watercolour, acrylics, paint markers, digital painting on the iPad, Photoshop and vector Illustrator prints.

Thank you to all my clients for supporting independent designers like me 🌸😊🌸

Three weeks ago I was dreaming loudly about the fi Three weeks ago I was dreaming loudly about the first poppies of the season here on Instagram. And last week I saw the first Spanish poppies blooming on the way back home from the supermarket, which then took me by surprise. But hey, it‘s May!

Back home I took out my paintbrush and put the artwork in repeat today - and now it’s uploaded and ready for licensing via my @patternbank account. To more poppies to come 💫
