I’m super excited to announce that I’ll be one of the teachers for the Make Create Express workshop this year. I’ll be offering up a lesson inspired by Galia, mother earth from the greek mythology but I saw her a bit differently :). I'll will also be going further in depth about the technique if you choose to continue the journey with us, I'll be teaching along with 26 other teachers from around the world.
Make Create Express is a year long mixed media adventure that kicks off with a FREE Creative Retreat weekend (open to all). With a range of lessons you are sure to learn new techniques, new process and discover new ways to express your own unique creativity. And did I mention that there is a FREE weekend event where you can access 27 lessons for free.
Join us for the FREE Creative Retreat weekend on the 6th & 7th of July

I have spent all my time on this since December, researching, prepping, filming, editing, changing my mind, making sure it was different from the first class, that I would push you to explore watercolour further and I am really proud to announce that it will be going live in June, I will be confirming the precise date in the next 2 weeks just have to make some technical calculations ;).

Looking back on the first month of the year, the deep cold weather, it’s challenges and putting myself mindfully out of my comfort zone I find myself frustrated and motivated at the same time. I started decluttering last summer summer but blame Marie Kondo on Netflix but I spent a big part of my January decluttering my apartment and craziness ensued… everything that's behind doors is getting so organised and clean but the floors and getting covered in pile of things to donate, trashed or recycle although I can already see the benefits on my mental health at time it seems like it will never end. After reading that most people take 6 months to complete her method I'm a bit overwhelmed by it but I'm persisting. That being said I was feeling like I created nothing all month until I went through my phone pictures it  reminded me that I did find little area to test new thing  and create a little. I even went out for a night with friends.

My other big project is something I wanted to do last summer but somehow I did not keep up with it so here I am again making it a weekly habit and include it in my bullet journal should help me persevere this time around and announcing it makes the commitment official. I want to fill a sketchbook with drawing of hands because they can be damn difficult to draw!!!! it will be interesting to see the evolution. I will pencils sketch a few hands in each session. After a while I should become more confident about them I will start to integrate them in more complex layout. If you want to joint with me in the challenge use the #drawinghandschallenge so we can share. It’s not an official thing, it’s just me trying to get better. I’ve pinned a lot of hands reference here, feel free to have a look and challenge yourself as well 😊
 
So that was my January, I want to make a habit of writing these post once a month, and share with you more of my creations or new tricks I have learned, making a bilan once a month make me realise that even when I feel like I accomplished nothing I still did quite a bit for a girl with a muggle job.

let’s see if I can keep this up and see you at the end of February
