Tried something new for this Christmas! I turned a few of my wrapping paper patterns into furoshiki, reusable giftwrap! Only did a limited amount to try it out and there are only a few left in my Etsy shop, so if you’re interested in getting one, get there fast! 🎄✨

Hello from my new workspace 👋🏻 I think it still needs some planks and some nice art on the wall though.. and some Christmas decorations off course!🎄

Haven’t posted anything for a while as I’ve been a bit preoccupied since we moved house in September! I think I underestimated a little how much energy goes into moving and doing small renovations around the house, all the while managing the holiday craziness in my Etsy shop, teaching classes and getting back into design work 🤪

We are super happy though having more space and loving our new neighborhood!

It’s still a little while away, but in December I will also start a new nature drawing course! During this course we will draw or paint small subjects from nature, each lesson focusing on a different theme. For instance butterflies, feathers or mushrooms 🦋🪶🍄 It’s the perfect follow up course to my botanical illustration course but can also be done separately. For more info, check the link in my bio!

Het is nog een beetje ver weg, maar in december start ik ook een nieuwe cursus natuur tekenen! Tijdens deze cursus tekenen/schilderen we mooie kleine onderwerden uit de natuur, zoals bijvoorbeeld vlinders, veren of paddenstoelen. Elke les staat er een ander thema centraal. Het is de perfecte vervolgcursus op mijn cursus botanisch tekenen maar kan ook apart gevolgd worden. Voor meer info, check de link in mijn bio!

The beginning of some spring florals 🌿 It’s been a busy month with teaching and other life things, so I haven’t had much time to pick up a paintbrush, and I really missed it!
