Abstract Watercolour | We leave in order to return better
Travel is more than just reaching a destination; it’s a journey of self-discovery and shared exploration with loved ones. It’s about stepping out of familiar surroundings, embracing the unknown, and awakening the senses to new experiences. Whether it’s the excitement of uncovering surprises or the quiet reflection that follows, travel teaches us to live mindfully, cherish life’s details, and ultimately rediscover the value of home.

Abstract Watercolour | Embracing the moment
Просмотров 4,6 тыс.14 дней назад
As the new year begins, I’m letting go of long-term plans and choosing to focus on the present - embracing each moment, each spark of inspiration, as it comes. In this video, I share my thoughts on living intentionally, releasing the weight of the past, and quieting the noise of the future. Join me on this journey of self-discovery, where simplicity and creativity guide the way. Timestamps: 00:...
Collage & Watercolour | Finding Light in Life’s Fragments
Просмотров 4,2 тыс.Месяц назад
A reflection on finding light amidst life’s fragments. From the vibrant pōhutukawa blossoms to the quiet whispers of inspiration, it’s about navigating through grief, embracing imperfection, and discovering joy in the process of creation. A reminder to cherish the journey, let go of the need for perfection, and allow the moment to shape the meaning of our days. Timestamps: 00:00 A Scarlet Welco...
Abstract Watercolour | A journey through art, healing, and growth in my late 30s
Просмотров 11 тыс.Месяц назад
Art emerges in the quiet moments-the bloom of flowers on a walk, the playful shapes of fruits and vegetables, the raw light of an unfiltered photo. Recently, I’ve embraced simplicity, letting go of polished perfection to focus on creating freely. Through collages and watercolors, I explore the vibrant connections between life’s ordinary details and my own reflections. In 2024, this journey feel...

Watercolour Sketch | Spend time at home on a day off
Просмотров 5478 месяцев назад
How would you spend your time on a day off? As Auckland's temperature gradually drops and workload decreases, I find myself staying in more often. With the kids at school, there's more time for me to take control. After tidying up the house 🧺🧹, I would return to my little desk and let my brush dance on the watercolour paper. The colours make me feel warm inside. Artlist Music: bit.ly/slowcollag...
Abstract Watercolour | Finding peace in petals | Intuitive watercolour painting process
Просмотров 8118 месяцев назад
Amidst the hustle and bustle of everyday life, there's something truly special about losing myself in the soothing rhythm of my favorite tunes while watching the enchanting dance of colours on my watercolour paper. Each stroke, though clumsy at times, leaves behind a genuine mark, reminding me why I'm so drawn to this medium. Slowing down the frantic pace of life allows me to inch closer to the...

    I love this gentle intentioned 'in the moment' practice. Thank you for sharing your thoughts as they resonate wholly with mine. I'd love to know about that music too. Until next time. Can you mention the name of that black marker you used? Is it some kind of grease pen? Thank you.😊

    I was looking forward to this but would have enjoyed either watching what you were doing with no dialogue or listening to you quietly do a talk over but found it too distracting trying to read all of the text and missed the painting.. sorry about that, I guess it suits many people but I didn't find it relaxing...happy 2025. Not sure if you were in NZ or Sydney..if I had long lists of everything I should be doing, places I should be going, people I should be seeing I would find that very exhausting..I'm looking for slow and relaxing... :)

      Thank you for sharing your feedback - I really appreciate it. I understand that everyone has their own preferences, and while I respect that, I prefer to stay true to my way of creating. At the moment, I feel most comfortable with subtitles rather than talkovers, as English is my second language. I’m based in NZ, and the slower pace of life here often inspires my work. Wishing you a relaxing and happy 2025, and thank you again for taking the time to watch and share your thoughts! 😊

      @@slow_collage I wouldn't mind living the slow life or any life in NZ!! You can never please everyone no matter what you do or don't do. But I just make the comment that when I have to read subtitles I don't get a chance to see what the artist is actually doing... Happy creating..you have a lovely kitchen/lounge area there you know how to make things look pretty.

    The "doer" is dying in many of us- we realize there is more to our lives than being strangled by the outside world's rules. Five years ago, I decided that my life is going to be about "being" not "doing" and like you said, checking off to-dos on a list. I have never been able to follow rules or "the crowd" so it wasn't a hard transition for me- and I have never looked back. Welcome to this most wonderful state of being! 🤗

    I enjoyed the creativity angle as it was so unique, but something I could try. I think you should treat yourself to a new pair of scissors though! You’ll enjoy it even more. Cutterbees are a go to for crafters for fussy cutting. I thought after you placed the cut out shapes on the base paper you were going to add more pencil. I guess that’s another option. I’d love to see it framed.
