Inktober Day 4 — Cactus 🌵
Keeping this one simple — just a little cactus, a few flowers, and a tiny visitor.
Slowly but surely, I’m catching up!

Keeping this one small and simple — quite literally.
A tiny thimble, some thread, and another little step into Inktober. 🖤

I first heard about Inktober a few years ago… maybe back in 2017. Since then, I’ve made a few attempts to join in, but I never really took it seriously enough to stay consistent and actually finish it.

This year, I want to give it another chance. Or maybe give myself another chance — I honestly can’t remember which number we’re on by now.

I have a feeling that, after a few days, I’ll finally get into the Inktober spirit. And who knows? Maybe I’ll end up loving it so much that I’ll already be looking forward to the next one.

So, one year late… Day 1 for me, Day 3 of Inktober. 🖤
Tomorrow I’ll try to catch up and close the gap. Will it be fun or stressful? We’ll find out along the way!

Back in the studio after what feels like forever.

After the summer, a few busy months, events and everything in between, this place had slowly turned into complete chaos. Boxes from the last event, things left everywhere, unfinished bits and pieces… it definitely needed some love.

So today was a reset day. Cleaning, moving things around, putting (almost) everything back where it belongs and making the space feel like mine again.

There’s something about tidying my studio that also clears a little space in my head. And now it finally feels ready for new things to begin.

It feels good to be back.

Sometimes I leave my ideas for tomorrow… or for “some other day.” Lately, though, I’ve been trying to actually bring them to life, without caring so much about whether they turn out perfect. And perfectionism is definitely one of my flaws.

I’m trying not to worry about whether what I make will look as beautiful as the photos I’ve saved on Pinterest. Because I’m realising that the process of creating something — even if it takes days, with pauses in between because, well… life — is so therapeutic for me.

I can sit there for hours, completely lost in what I’m doing, not thinking about anything else. Or, sometimes, thinking about EVERYTHING all at once, trying to put my thoughts in order. A little creative therapy, a little introspection.

Either way… this little clay piece will eventually be hanging from my dining room ceiling. Because it reminds me of autumn, freedom, and it’s simply something cute that will make me smile on those moody days. 🍂✨

And maybe that’s reason enough to make something.

Whole lives could be moodboards.

Small moments, old photographs, objects and souvenirs we once hid in our pockets. If you place them all together, they lead you back to your uniqueness - to your colors. They might even reveal patterns that uncover the meaning of your life.
And I think its worth laying them out one by one and asking:

What do they say?
What do they carry? What do they breath out?

Here is the moodboard for my first collection, dedicated to my grandfather and his life as a fisherman.
To the sea he was deeply connected to.

It wasn't just a way to survive...
It was his freedom,
his companion,
his whole world,
his heaven on earth.
He was truly devoted- willingly surrendered, tangled in the deep. 🌊

My artwork has finally reached its final destination.

A handmade piece adorned with words that have no expiration date — words that will always touch the heart that needs a little comfort and a little hope.

A gentle reminder that everything is under control. ✨

Some creations are made with more than just paint — they’re made with love. 🌿✨

I made this handmade piece for a very special friend.
A little reminder that she doesn’t have to be afraid.
That she is worth more than she thinks.
That she is never forgotten. 🤍

Every brushstroke carries a thought.
Every word carries a prayer.
