#the100dayproject 2018 Days 51-100

My Moods Movie

Last Sunday was the last day of my summer vacation and totally incidentally also the last day of my 100-day-project. Some say it takes 21 days to form a new habit, others say 28 or 66 days. So 100 days are plenty! I started on April 27 2016 and painted my 100 days all through… Read More

Daily Moods – Halftime

This morning I painted my 50th morning mood of my 100-day-project. So I thought it was time for a little update since I started the project a good 1,5 months ago. I am still doing them. Every single morning. Never missed once (ok, I missed one weekend when I forgot to take my art supplies… Read More

100 Days of Daily Moods

About three weeks ago a lot of posts started showing up in my Instagram feed with people announcing their coming #the100dayproject, starting the next day on April 19.

Deep November

November is definitely a special month. Not only because my younger daughter’s birthday is at the end of it and a lot of November is spent talking about how many nights there are still left to sleep before her big day arrives. November itself is a mysterious month to me, a time for retreat, contemplation,… Read More

Blue Moments – Water and Sky

If you know me a bit through my blog, work or personally, you might have noticed how much I am drawn to the colour pink. Our vacation on Mallorca had its pink moments for sure, but one colour was predominant there – blue. I would like to share a couple of these blue moments, that… Read More

Speaking your own truth and painting your own trut Speaking your own truth and painting your own truth - it’s connected to the throat chakra. That inner vision, that knowingness that gets manifested in the world - some surprises included.

It is the centre of communication and personal expression and especially the ability of speaking your truth. The throat chakra is connected to the element of ether and space and sound. Its associated colour is blue, so welcome to blue week!
