In my last post, I created a sumptuous blue and teal winter colour palette. A colour trend I have seen a lot in interior design lately and a colour scheme I’m really drawn to. However whilst researching the moodboard, I saw many beautiful interiors, with gorgeous artworks, but the art was rarely credited. Art for your interiors really shouldn’t be an …
For the entire month of September, I’m excited to guest judge another creative challenge on Instagram. The very talented ceramicist Katie Robbins aka @ceramincmagpie, asked me to judge the #WIPSandBlooms creative challenge on my favourite social media platform. If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll know I love a creative challenge and to experiment. Therefore this month the #WIPSandBlooms theme …
In my quest to build a meaningful, stress-reduced existence, I’ve been exploring the ins and outs of living a Minimalist lifestyle. I am, by, no means, a minimalist yet! I’m finding it very hard to let go, especially of the children’s artwork and keepsakes. However, I have filled many bags with ‘stuff’. Bags destined for the charity shop, freecycle and the …
Earlier this month I sponsored the Creatively Squared challenge on Instagram ‘cs_flowersandfoliage’. The lovely Creatively Squared team also published my guest post on their website about The Importance of Play. I just wanted to expand upon that post over here because, frankly I’m passionate about the power of play. “We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old …

And I’ve definitely had my fair share. Just before Christmas I had a massive bout of self doubt. Like getting tangled in a fishing net, it got hold of me and dragged me down. I lost …
I had a mini milestone last week on Instagram. I reached 25K followers which was a personal goal and I was very happy to finally reach it! My growth on Instagram I would describe as slow, but steady and definitely a labour of love. Like I said at the Brighton Etsy team Instagram talk last week, Instagram has been a fantastic …
I honestly don’t know where to begin. It’s been months since I’ve been able to return to this place in cyberspace to chat and share about recent goings on. There’s been a lot of soul searching, that’s for sure. I’ve recently resigned from my social media and digital marketing job at new visitor attraction, British Airways i360 in Brighton, to return to freelance …
As you know I’m a huge Instagram fan. I use the platform as a way of taking half an hour to be creative (mostly) everyday. It’s been a fantastic way of experimenting and discovering new techniques that I can use in my illustrations. I’ve also connected with some wonderful creative people as a result of the platform too. Here’s a …
