birthday dress
Sometimes all you need is a pretty floral dress…
100 days of painting – the project in which I daily painted what’s in bloom in my garden – brought me a lot: good painting practice, new followers and many new floral designs. Come have a look at my garden
Cats running around in my garden, daily paintings of the flowers in bloom and other things I’ve been busy with… You’ll read about it in my June Newsletter
Today is day 50 in my daily painting project: I’m painting what’s in bloom in my garden. Now what shall I paint today? 50 flowers? Come follow me on Instagram
100 days of painting in my garden is an Instagram project I’m doing right now. Every day I start with a simple painting of flowers or plants that grow in my garden (or my neighbor’s). Follow me on Instagram to view the results.
Picking your own fruit and turning it into jam is fun. Dress up your pots with these hand drawn jam labels. They suit universal labels size 70 x 42,3 mm. I drew them in black & white, all you have to do is colour them in! You can download the labels here below (pdf), but make sure it is only for personal use, not for commercial purposes.
Apart from designing floral and botanical prints, I’m a floral freak and gardener. I love any job with flowers! For a performance of The Swedish mezzo-soprano Helena van Heel and the Dutch GoYa string quartet I was asked to make flower garlands in Scandinavian style. Midsommarkransar, with real flowers from my own garden, I must add. If you want to try it out for yourself: here’s my tutorial to do it (pdf). Have fun!
Have started sketching for a stationery project. These designs are going to be chock-full with flowers and leaves, just like my own garden. I love designing for paper products and somehow always end up with square designs…
There’s many a wild flower in my neighbourhood. I picked a few of these spring flowers right before they were mown. I’m using them in one of my designs. You can read about it in my June newsletter right here
