As promised a video of the book I shared Saturday.

As promised a video of the book I shared Saturday. There’s still a lot of space to fill up, another fun part of making these small creative books.

The first picture shows some of my favorite colors when making the papers. These are acrylics, I also use inks, pastels and gouache. It’s always a mix. I like how every medium has its own character. I’ll now work on the cover, which isn’t finished. To be continued….
Have a wonderful day lovely people 🩵

I had a mess on my table, working on many papers at the same time. That’s what I always do and what I love to do. And then this face appeared unexpectedly. In the midst of the happy chaos. Have a wonderful day and/or evening beautiful friends 🩷

I started the week with doodling in the ‘new’ journal I showed you last week. I also painted some tape. With my favorite colors, selfmade stamps, some patterns and lino cut prints which was a lot of fun. Wishing you a good start of the week, happy Monday beautiful people 🧡

I’m still having fun with making these small books. And they’re never finished, I can keep adding papers, colors and writing. I’ll share a video soon, now I’m enjoying the process of things unfinished and incomplete. I think I prefer that about the finished product 🙂 It’s not about perfection! Wishing you a wonderful weekend lovely people 🩵

When things are coming together spontaneously. Not that it is of any importance but still I thought of sharing anyway 🙂 I had a mess on my table this morning as you can see in the first picture, so yes more focus for me….. Have a wonderful day lovely friends 🩵

The start of a new book. I’m planning to fill this artjournal with leftovers from the paper I use for the other journals. My plans can change 🙂 so I’ll see where this brings me, and meanwhile thinking what I will do with the pompoms, I just love the colors together with the book.
Wishing you a lovely day beautiful people 🧡

What I was working on today, a new artjournal or another signature for a journal I already made. I’m not sure yet, as always, and it will be clear along the way. And I can always change my mind right 🙂 I did some painting, writing, and lino cut printing here. And there’s a tag if you look closely.

I hope you all had a lovely weekend. And as I wasn’t really present on IG these past days, I’m going to check what I’ve missed in the weekend 🙂

This is where I’m now. I still need to connect the signature to the inside. I’ve put an elastic around it, temporarily. And it will need some more details on the inside. But as I’ve said before, these art journals are in fact never finished 🙂 I hope you are having a good weekend lovely people, I might go for a little bicycle trip and get a vegan ice cream🍦🧡

On my table today, yes you guessed it already 🙂 I’m still working on the cover and the signature. Quote by Roald Dahl. And I’ve been busy painting new papers of course (as I’m struggling cutting them up I always need some stock) but that has to wait for another day to finish them. It’s a sunny day here, wishing you a lovely day dear friends. Happy Friday 🧡🌸

I’m always working on more pieces at the same time. I always did 🙂 So instead of finishing yesterdays artjournal, I started making a new cover. This is where I am so far. Let’s see how to proceed 🙂 Have a lovely day beautiful friends 🧡

I’m going through my painted papers for a new artjournal. I need to paint some more, one can never have enough 🙂 and I’m always struggling with cutting them up, quite contrary because that’s why I’ve made them 🙂
I hope you had/are having a lovely day beautiful people 🧡

I’m happy to be a speaker at this event, togethe

I’m happy to be a speaker at this event, together with other speakers. It’s still time to sign up for this wonderful free event by @romillypompom which will start in 5 days.

The intuitive mind is the part of us that perceives infinite potential. It is not held back by limiting beliefs or past experiences and it frees us to create, imagine and feel into what we desire without the constraints of societal conditioning or habits.

The intuitive mind provides us with the wild ideas that light us up, it provides us with the delight of possibility.

Connecting to your intuitive mind, to your intuition, is a skill that takes practice.

At @romillypompom ‘s The Art of The Intuitive Mind, alongside other creative souls, I’ll be sharing how my creative practice helps me to connect to my intuition.

I hope you’ll join us!

Follow the link in my bio for more info.

I’m slowly making progress with my artjournal. Behind the scenes I’m busy with a wonderful creative project and that needs all my attention right now. First things first 🙂 But the cover is ready on the inside too and I sewed the pages together as a signature.
Happy Monday beautiful people, have a good start of the week 🩵

I’m filling the artjournal cover I made this week, you can see it in the picture. It’s fun to move the papers around and see what will go together. I will bind/fold it in a concertinabook format which I like most, for now. That might change when I’ve learned other binding techniques.
Wishing you all a lovely weekend beautiful people, happy Friday 🧡

Have you signed up already? I’m so excited to speak at this free event hosted by @romillypompom It’s a gathering of creative souls who will share the practices and rituals that they use to connect to their intuition and create from a place of possibility.

Imagine being so in tune with your intuition that you trust your decisions even when you can’t explain why.

From this place of radical self-belief, whatever happens next is ok because you trust that you are acting in a way that is right for you.

We live in a world that champions logic and facts over feelings and senses. Most of us have been taught to ignore what we can’t prove.

The thing is, when we focus solely on what we can prove we close ourselves off to new possibilities and creative thinking, we go round and round in what we already know.

We create the limits that prevent us from moving forwards!

Trusting our intuition opens up a world of possibility. When we know and follow our truth instead of someone else’s we become magnetic because our actions align with our hearts true desires.

But listening to our intuition takes practice.

Join me for The Art of The Intuitive Mind hosted by @romillypompom and learn how me and other creative souls have developed practices and rituals that enable deep inner listening.

I sometimes start with a cover, not knowing what will be inside of the booklet. This has a stitched spine with shiny threads, brown and gold. The brown fabric perfectly matched the sepia of my watercolors. To be continued for what will be inside 🙂 Have a lovely day wonderful friends 🧡

A new artjournal in the making. I’m still thinking about the way of binding. So many possibilities here and ways to explore as this is pretty new to me. I love to make the papers to begin with. And while going through them and looking for papers to match with each other I let myself be guided by the process and see what happens. I hope you had a good start of the week lovely people 🧡

I’m so excited to speak at this free event hosted by the lovely Romilly @romillypompom

It’s a gathering of creative souls who will share the practices and rituals that they use to connect to their intuition and create from a place of possibility.

Follow the link in my bio for more info.

When you follow your intuition you are listening to the whispers of your soul instead of the noise of the world around you.

Instead of being concerned with what everyone else is doing, how they are doing it and what you believe is possible, you follow what feels right in your heart.

You take action on a knowing at a soul level. And this makes you magnetic!

Why? Because your action is aligned with your heart’s true desires.

But following your intuition takes practice. You need to be able to listen inwards. To discern between when you are allowing fear and scarcity to lead you and when you are guided by sufficiency, possibility and trust.

I hope you'll join us, to sign up for this event, please follow the link in my bio.

Here are some of the finished books I made lately. I used a different technique for each one of them for the inside ánd the covers. I very much enjoyed the process of making these. Wishing you a lovely day beautiful people 🧡

I made a video from the little book, see my last post. You can see how small it is. I could keep adding to these books, they’re never finished 🙂 But I started a new one this morning, always working on more pieces at the same time 🙂 Have a wonderful day lovely friends 🧡
