Have you put your Christmas tree up yet? We put ours up last week, just before my birthday 🎄 It has been SO lovely having the house feel festive already and coming down every morning to the smell of pine. It's always a tradition for us to go and get a real Christmas tree and this one just caught our eyes straight away as soon as we saw it! Have you got your Christmas tree yet? And do you go for a real or fake tree? 🎄⁠

I am over the moon to share my huge, exciting, terrifying and wonderful news with you all… I have written a book. And it’s coming out on 8th March 2022 🎉 🎉 🎉 Writing these words down still doesn’t feel real. I’m an author… How crazy is that?! This is something I’ve dreamt about for the longest time. And now it’s happening! It’s really happening! The book is called ‘Watercolor for the Soul’ and it’s all about using watercolour to soothe the soul. You’ll learn how to mix a calming colour palette, try simple painting exercises to get into a relaxed flow, and create beautiful paintings that will lift your spirits both during the painting process itself and afterwards as I will give you ideas for how to use your artwork in simple ways around your home 🎨 And the REALLY fantastic bit? You can already pre-order it on Waterstones and Amazon. I am on a Waterstones digital shelf! 😢 I’ve written a blog all about my book writing journey - if you’d like to read it, pop over to my website. Now, don’t mind me… I’m off to add AUTHOR to my Instagram bio!! #watercolorforthesoul #watercolourforthesoul #creativejourney #watercolorbook #watercolourbook #artforrelaxation #artforthesoul #artforyoureveryday #mindfulart #creativehabit #artismytherapy #easywatercolor #simplewatercolor #watercolorforbeginners #watercolorartists #watercolorartist #watercolourforbeginners #watercolournewbie #watercolornewbie #howtopaint #learnwatercolor #learntopaint #beginnerart #learnwatercolor #watercolorteacher #artfortherapy #artforyoureveryday

It’s officially 1 day until the biggest reveal of my career to date 💚⁠
⁠
And I had to end with my biggest inspiration, didn’t I?⁠
⁠
Nothing lights up my creativity like nature. I love going on walks to hunt out little nuggets of inspiration. Because it’s everywhere. And the joy of watercolour is that you can turn even the simplest everyday item into something captivating on the page.⁠
⁠
With the hustle and bustle, the noise and the rush of daily life, it’s all too easy to become a bit lost. Art allows us the chance to switch off and tune in. It gives us permission to connect with the world around us and the abundance of beauty at every corner.⁠
⁠
Is this something that matters to you? If so, you’re going to want to tune in tomorrow (at 12 o clock GMT to be precise!)🎉 ⁠

Here we go… 2 more days until my biggest reveal ever! 🎉⁠
⁠
Today I’m inspired by, well, just about everything!⁠
⁠
The thing I love the most about art is that you can find inspiration anywhere. You don’t have to be on an epic trek, or an idyllic beach, or hidden underneath a majestic tree (although those things are all, of course, wonderful!).⁠
⁠
Inspiration can be found in the most surprising places - even your kitchen! ⁠
⁠
There are so many gorgeous textures and patterns that can be found in fruits and vegetables 🍊 That’s why I’ve gone for something zesty… what do you think? 🍋⁠
⁠
I’m getting very excited to share my news with you. Not long to go!⁠

3 days to go! ✨✨✨⁠
⁠
Painting turtles and anything that can be found under the sea just makes me happy 🐢 🌊⁠
⁠
It always takes me back to such special memories. One in particular really stands out to me. I was travelling around Borneo with my friend and brother and went swimming with turtles. I wasn’t a particularly strong swimmer, so I was a little nervous out there in the middle of the sea.⁠
⁠
But… the moment I put my snorkel on and got a glimpse of those incredible turtles, all my nerves floated away with the waves. The instant sense of calm was electric - if only I could have bottled it! One day I hope to go back with my husband and son to create even more magical memories.⁠
⁠
Any guesses what the big reveal is yet? 🙊⁠

It’s day 4 in my 5 day countdown and today I’m keeping it simple 🖌️⁠
⁠
I have a real soft spot for painting simple patterns and shapes for relaxation… Why? Because there’s no pressure! You can simply take out your brush and lose yourself in the sheer mindfulness of the process without worrying about the end result.⁠
⁠
Plus, the repetition of drawing the same lines and shapes draws you into a very special state of calm. You can then focus on experimenting with various harmonious colour combinations.⁠
⁠
This is something that is becoming more and more popular in my classes. My most popular class (by a landslide!) is Watercolour for Relaxation… This shows how much people crave simple, achievable and calming things to paint 🎨⁠
⁠
This ^^ has been a huge inspiration for the *thing* I’ll be sharing in 4 days! ⁠

You may have guessed… But I’ve got a pretty exciting reveal coming up 🙊 I really wanted to share it in the best way I know how - through my paintbrush 🖌️⁠
⁠
So, with five days to go, I’m feeling very inspired by the magical beauty of leaves 🍃 Leaves are always my go-to subject when I’m painting for relaxation. I absolutely love how you can create something so simple but wonderful with just one or two brush strokes. Equally, you can go super detailed with it depending on which process speaks to you.⁠
⁠
I also adore working with different shades of green. I think it’s one of my favourite colours to mix 💚⁠
⁠
Did you know that green is psychologically calming too? Its deep roots in nature make it an incredibly grounding, tranquil colour to surround yourself with.⁠
⁠
Keep an eye out for ‘number 4’ in my countdown tomorrow! ⁠
