“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

For all my ginger-haired friends out there! I am still enjoying painting dance-related scenes and I hope you enjoy the little break from flowers too.

The fourth and last print I designed for the latest @caftanist collection - I am proudly presenting ‘Dreamy Ivy’

All hand-painted in acrylic, it made its way from my painting table in Northern Germany to Malaysia 💫 and look, so many style options to choose from, wow!

Here is another look at ‘Perfect Poppy’, my favourite print I designed for the latest @caftanist collection 🌸

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.

I am channeling my inner Matisse here who said collage is like ‘drawing with scissors’.
Do you know his famous painting ‘Dance’ ?
