While I await some fabric samples, working on some paintings. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Not sure if it’s finished yet.

Anyone else like to spread their creativity to multiple areas.

Did I mention I just got a tufting gun too😅…. Just to expand the possibilities of new art creations. I can see this being either exciting or a total disaster with “ moi” being frustrated to the bitter end. 😂😂.
Oh dear….. 😬😬😬

But to trust in my word for the year, I gotta have “Faith” and a whole lot of patience 😅😬😂.

Another colour combination for my lined leaves design.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​I sooo need to get better at names first designs but at the moment this is it….. so original 😜.

A little experimental painting in progress.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​One thing I’ve realised is that I’m continually learning and growing. Not only regarding skills and knowledge but also within myself.

I’m discovering I’m not a patient person. I like to create in different mediums and I like to change my routine up.

Which does mean I seem to have various projects unfinished.😬😬😬 ( still working on this 😅).

So true to my form, in the middle of pattern design, I’m doing some paintings with no particular concepts for an another office space.

Here’s to creating my fellow creators . 🧡🤓

One day I hope to see these patterns come to life in a home filled with love….. 💜.I could definitely see this lining the walls of a young girls room.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Heres to dreaming a little dream.

My word for this year was Faith. 🕊️

To keep moving forward and doing what I love and have faith things will work out.

So if you’ve read this far, let’s dream together and have faith in ourselves and in the universe.

Who else loves a little lilac in their lives sprinkled magic and faith. ✨

I came across this image from in Pinterest and fell in love. It’s part of my mood board for a possible colourway.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Also loving vintaged linen bedspread in caramel and pink check.

Swipe to see one of my patterns using an inspiration from my walk in the Australian bush. Still finalising colours .

More banksias sketches.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​I forgot I had drawn these. I can’t get enough of this interesting flower. 🧡

A sneak peak on some patterns I’ve been working on. Still to finalise colours and pattern sizes.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Sometimes I find inspiration in pretty objects I see. I absolutely love furniture pieces that show interesting textures or shapes.

So a shout out to Trit house for there Ziki side table pink onyx and Paola & Joy Evie table light in blush.

My Illustrator artboard is a bit of a mess but one thing at a time.

Warm minimalist.

Spoonflower latest challenge and my entry for it. Not sure if I hit the brief, but was nice to have a play. Voting opens soon.

Note, the last mockup image is slighter bigger than wallpaper size ( then available on spoon-flower), which I loved the look of.

If I was cleaver chook maybe splitting the design into two panels to achieve the size could work….. 🤔 hmm note to future self.

Anyway if you’ve read this far, have a glorious awesome day and rest of the week.🧡

A little wallpaper mockup 🧡 to a baby girls nursery using Grandmas Garden in tan from Summers Collection available now in my spoon-flower shop ( link in bio).​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Grandmas geranium in tan (available in my spoonflower shop).⁣
When I designed the farm collection based off my grandparents farm, grandmas geraniums came to my mind. This flower could be found at the entrance gate to the house, and brings a note of nostalgia.

Still love a good pinstripe wallpaper. This one can be found in my spoon flower shop, Link in bio 🧡​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Last week of school for the schooling year for us, and a big moment for my daughter who’s finishing up her final days of primary school.

In all the feels as my baby is growing up.🥲

Rabbits 🐇 on sheets what can I say. 🤎🧡🤎 ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Would be gorgeous in a country inspired bedroom and can be found in my Spoonflower shop (Link in bio).

Day 28 and 29 of the
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Almost there, yippee. Enjoying the natural flow of paint and markings with no real destination at the moment.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sometimes I think I should draw or paint something recognisable but I find just making marks really puts me in the zone, just pushing paint and ink around.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Hubby tried to find shapes within, he thinks he can see an owl in one. 😆.

Hope everyone’s days going well.

Day 17 of 30 of my daily art practice for the

Nature inspiration 🧡🌊

Some digital art for day 16/30 of the ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

My daily art practice today was turning the motifs I’d been drawing into a pattern.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​I’ll admit I started doing this last night.

Might need to balance it a little more, tweak here and there, but could see this on fabric especially something like baby muslin wraps or pillow cases/bed sheets, or maybe some wallpaper too.

What do you think?

Here’s my stripe wallpaper from Charli’s collection.🤎

Another sketch for another day.

Doing a little sketching on a Sunday.

Feeling inspired.💜

One fact about me is that I love interior styling and decorating. I think I just love pretty things full stop and am forever thinking how I can change my space.

Most of the rooms in my home have had at least 2 colour changes in a 5 year time frame. I just can’t help myself.

It’s a problem 😂, but I just love playing with ideas and am now secretly thinking , a little purple in the house could be cute.

It’s also giving me ideas on another pattern collection. 🤔
I might have to do a mood-board for this one.

Playing with geometric shapes with a similar colour pallet for my day 11/30 of the .

Swipe right for a possible wallpaper design in a rough draft.

Could be fun, what do you think?

Afters yesterdays creative painting, I realised that I’ve also used these colours in my rabbit wallpaper from Charli’s rabbit collection. 💜🧡 what can I say they must be my colours this year.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​This cutie wallpaper is also shown here with the lilac stripe and daisy’s in orange Belgian linen fabric.

Available in my spoon-flower shop and in a few alternative colour ways (link in bio).

Feeling a little under the weather today but managed to still create something for day 10 of the .​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​I’m really feeling these colours lately, lilacs, ochres, oranges, and pinks.
