My pinkie swear, my cup of tea

Part of the #COTFAhastagchallenge was #creativepinkyswear for #carveouttimeforart
This post is more a confession, in the first place to myself. When it comes to creativity, there are many roads and paths to travel, and there always is a choice.
I easily lose track because of these choices. For years I’ve tried to find a specific style which can be defined. A struggle sometimes, as I love painting and drawing so many different things with different mediums. Portraits, botanicals, animals and little illustrations. And recently I discovered the use of markers in my paintings.
I feel like being in the middle of one big proces, with so many possibilities, learning so many things day by day. And as of now, I want to keep it this way, that’s my pinkie swear. So where to go is not a question for me, I will let the flow take me wherever it goes. And enjoy this creative journey.
I won’t be looking for that ‘specific style’ that defines ‘me’. Through my creative process of #paintingeveryday I’ve found what I was apparently looking for, that little piece of myself that learned me who I am right now. Not perfect, but I can accept it and, even more important, appreciate and treasure it.

My cup of tea

 

I like to illustrate my imaginary world by expressing and translating my thoughts and feelings into color and pattern.
