Let's paint! Join me in the studio and let's expand our color palette (and our comfort zone) with a fun abstract mixed media series!

Sometimes a painting needs a new life… and a whole makeover! A few months ago I decided to tackle an abstract canvas that just didn’t feel really “me”. It took a while and it now has a completely new look and a new story…

It's been a while since I created a large painting, and I'm thrilled to share the process of new floral piece! All through its making I've been going back and forth between the garden and the studio, soaking in beauty and inspiration, then bringing it back to the canvas, again and again…

How do you take a small artwork to the next level? With a chunky frame! Here is a full, easy-peasy video tutorial. Enjoy!

The first blooms of Spring are showing up in the garden and they put me in a floral mood! Let’s get playful and explore color with some mini floral studies, using a magazine page as inspiration…

Not everything you create has to be “finished” straight away. Years ago in my first online class, Layers of Light, I created a series of “two-minute minis” as a quick warm-up exercise. I loved those little collages and just kept them in the studio, in their unfinished state, until I recently got the impulse to turn them into something more…

As I’m about to open enrollment for my new painting e-course “Flower Flow”, I’m sharing eight favorite creative tips, one from each project of the class! Plus plenty of sneak peeks into the classroom. Get inspired and get blooming!

The camera is rolling for my new class Flower Flow! I’ve just finished filming the first project, which is all about embracing imperfection and simplicity. This mini warm-up series turned out so sweet, and it’s only the beginning!

Flowers are taking over the studio! Today I’m sharing a brand new painting and plenty of floral inspiration. I hope it brings a little joy to your day!

Today I’m sharing my favorite technique to pack a painting for shipping around the world! Come watch the videos and learn my best tips for art that travels safely.

I am feeling so inspired by the flowers popping out all over the garden… so much so that a new floral painting class is in the works! Come read more and let your heart bloom!

There’s something so exhilarating about embracing the beginner’s spirit. I always love to learn and explore new techniques, and at the moment I’m having so much fun playing with watercolor!

Let’s plant the seeds of our dreams and watch them bloom! I have just finished filming my art journaling lesson for Wanderlust 2021 and it’s all about making wishes for the new year. Here are plenty of pics!

I’ve only just realized… it’s 10 years since I started painting! From a little birdie out of her cage to this summer’s magazine cover... what a journey!

Join me in this brand new, FREE mini lesson where we will create teeny tiny abstract paintings infused with plenty of soulful magic!

A painting inspired by women artists from times past, and dedicated to today’s creative ladies! May you dare to bloom freely and unapologetically, into the artist you know you are.

What if we allowed ourselves to make an infinity of wild, beautiful and colorful wishes? What if we realized that there is no limit to what we can dream of, wish for, and hold within our hearts for the future? Each little flower in this painting carries even more seeds of possibility, reminding us that all the magic we will ever need is right there inside of us, ready to grow and bloom.

I have hardly ever thrown any art away in my life. I’m patient and a little stubborn, and above all I have full trust in the creative process, so I’d rather let them sit on a shelf for months or even years until they finally come alive, like the series I’m sharing today.

There is so much joy, hope and strength to be found in art, and in art-making. Finishing this new painting has given me renewed confidence, and I hope it with you will lift your spirits too!

I’m sharing a new painting on my blog to day: Winter blooms emerging from under the snow remind us that beauty, life and grace always find their way back through the colder, darker days.
