Finally managed to sit down and paint again yesterday!
I am having somewhat of an existential crisis at the moment regarding what I want my art to look like, so I am using this piece and its challenges to explore directions and options...
This way of working is obviously quite time consuming, but I am already feeling the...

Hi peeps,
How are you all?
✦ First things first : The stickers have arrived! I posted some footage of them in my Instagram stories if you want a sneak-peak (I tried Lense too but, as usual, it crashed on me and laughed in my face XD). I'm very happy about how they turned out, and I am excited to send...

Hey peeps,
As promised, here is the Sketchbook PDF for August!
As I mentioned in my previous post, this one is a little different than my usual sketchbook PDF (in which I upload my latest sketches) as I just didn't have enough time to create enough work for a satisfactory PDF of new sketches. ...

✿ HI EVERYONE! I'M (KINDA) BACK! ✿
And I'm tired out of my mind, but at least we are finally, mostly, almost, settled into our new place! More on this at the end of this post, and in the meantime, here are a few updates and announcements.
And so, first of all...

Hi peeps,
This was a long time coming, but I finally put together a timelapse of my first attempt at painting a still-life from life!
I painted this back when I was visiting my family in France in April. I...

Hello hello hello!
I thought I would put together a post about something a little different, to entertain you while I drown in boxes. XD
This will also give you an insight into my other artistic interests, and a sneak-peak of what I would like to include more of in my work in the future...:)
Ok, so, full disclosure, this piece is giving me a lot of trouble, haha!
I am really keen to paint this concept, but the dramatic nature of it is proving rather tricky to portray!
Lately, I have been feeling like, as much as I am enjoying the work I am producing, I am not achieving the full potential...

Hi everyone,
I wanted to write a little post to apologise, as I don't think I will be able to paint this month's piece and create the Process PDF in time.
I am really struggling quite a bit more than I had anticipated, between packing all my stuff on my own, and working at th...

Hi everyone.
I am more or less back on my feet, or at least, back in front of my computer, and since I haven't properly updated you all in a little while, here's a quick run-down of latest events, what's new, and what's coming up.
If you can, make sure you read the whole post, as I always try to in...

Hi everyone!
This post was a long time coming and I am sorry about that!
These paintings go back to when I went home to my hometown in France in April 2018!
I am from a biggish town in the middleish of France, right next to the Alps, and I have always wanted to go paint in the mountains....
Hey peeps,
I am away in Italy for a wedding at the moment, but I scheduled this post to go up while I'm away, as I figured you might be interested in perusing one of my OLD sketchbooks!
This sketchbook is from 2009-2010. The year I moved to England! It is strange to realise I have been here for alm...

Another month has gone by, and a new one has started, and I honestly don't even remember what happened in June it all went by so fast. O_O

Hi everyone!
I have FINALLY finished the process PDF for my June painting, "Phosphones"!
I AM SO SORRY IT'S SO LATE!
I won't bore you with excuses, just know that I am so very sorry, and I'll do my best so that it doesn't happen again.
I hope you'll like it, let m...

Hello lovely peeps,
I feel like I haven't given you any news in too long, I am so sorry. The flat hunting is taking up all my energy and time, and I feel like I'm in a whirlwind of stress and condescending estate agents.
I did manage to finish this piece though!!!!

Hi guys!
I have finally finished this video about my favourite online art resources, with a focus on free ones and ones under $10.
This was a behemoth of a video, and took me a good solid 70 hours to put together, and I so hope it'll be helpful and interesting to some of you!

Hi peeps!
I don't know if you are interested in those longer word-heavy update posts I do every so often, but hopefully you don't mind them. I find it important to keep you updated, and not make you feel like I've forgotten you if I don't post for a little while. I know most of you are the best, and trust me, but it's more of ...

I am in the process of writing a detailed post about how I stretch my watercolour paper, and was wondering if anyone had any specific questions about it?
Feel free to ask them in the comments below and I'll make sure to include them in my post. <3

Hi lovely people,
I hope you are all well and enjoyed a lovely weekend?
Over here in London it was very hot and sunny. And humid, because otherwise it would have been too good to be true.
On Saturday, I met up with a friend to provide moral support while she went through the difficult task of designing her wedding...
Hi all!
Another month, a few more of you, a bit more art, and a whole lot of gratitude! THANK YOU so so so much to all of you that joined us this month, and all of you that stuck around for yet another round! I have tons of cool things planned for the next few weeks, and I hope you will enjoy them!
