Winter solstice

Wild on the weekends… My home is always creative but always comfortable. Winter Solstice has me reflecting on things : renewal, regeneration, endings and beginnings. Focusing on what I’m manifesting. Always present and in tune with nature. Take time to think about what you really want.

Visual story telling  Playing with a few things in the studio and always painting something (always with Murobond paints) Whilst working on many different projects sometimes I just need to step away and get creative in a different way – the ultimate in procrastinating maybe… Always creating and always in motion but at my own pace  […]
