What if little signs of magic were everywhere, waiting to be discovered? What if we could make it a practice to notice and cultivate wonder in our life? I’m just back from an enchanting retreat, come on and follow the trail of magic with me!

Taking an "inspiration walk" is part of my creative practice: I love to go outside with the deliberate intention of spotting beauty. Sometimes I will capture it with my camera, other times I will simply stay a moment, looking, taking it all in…

In just a few days I’ll be turning 45 and I love the idea of joyfully embracing my “middle years”. New projects are growing in my heart, new directions for my art, and a desire to rediscover some of my first loves…

I was standing in the studio this morning when I got this sudden, but familiar familiar impulse to change things around and… update my inspiration wall! Join me and learn some of my favorite tips to make your own.

I recently finished my art journal and I’m taking you along as I flip-through all its pages for the very first time! It is such a joy to hold in my hands this big, chunky, dreamy, artsy and very personal storybook. So get yourself a nice cup of tea and join me in the studio!

A new page and a new class! What if we filled our art journal with little hiding places: flaps and pockets to hold our dreams, our stories and the secrets of our hearts? What if we gave ourselves the freedom to play, have fun and get messy, while expressing our emotions in the safe space of our journal?

Join me in the studio as I create the last page in my art journal! It is such a joy to complete this very personal, visual storybook. Grab your favorite cuppa and let yourself feel inspired!

Today I’m sharing one of my favorite creative practices: the art of making “bundles of inspiration” to use in my art journal! It is such a fun and relaxing process, and it’s always magical to see a whole page emerge from just a few paper scraps.

When the world feels dark, my art journal is a safe space to express thoughts and emotions, and find my way back towards the light…

Let’s face it, acrylics are not the most eco-friendly kind of paint, even though they’re completely amazing for mixed media! But we can make small changes and mindful choices to use them in a more sustainable way. Here are my best 5 tips!

Today I’m excited to share some gorgeous art by the students of my class Flower Flow! Watch the video , take a closer look at the photos and even take a peek inside some inspiring creative spaces!

This latest page in my art journal took me through quite an emotional journey, helping me process these crazy times, and reminding me that there's only so much we can bring into the world: our gifts, and our heart.⁠

There is power in creativity, because the more love, joy, beauty and peace we create, on the canvas and in our lives, the more positive energy we bring into the world. So today I want to remind you of this one thing: you are an artist, and your art matters.

The first blooms of Spring are showing up in the garden and they put me in a floral mood! Let’s get playful and explore color with some mini floral studies, using a magazine page as inspiration…

Image transfers and vintage photos are a match made in heaven! Especially when they come together to tell a beautiful story.

Being fully in the present moment, and taking nurturing time for yourself, this is really one of the best and most important parts of art journaling. It truly is creative self-care. But it’s not always easy…

Let’s welcome 2022 with gratitude, hopes and wishes, and a Word of The Year! Oh, and a FREE WORKSHOP too!

Not everything you create has to be “finished” straight away. Years ago in my first online class, Layers of Light, I created a series of “two-minute minis” as a quick warm-up exercise. I loved those little collages and just kept them in the studio, in their unfinished state, until I recently got the impulse to turn them into something more…
