English Spring Garden 🌹🌺❤️
Today I’ve been to visit friends and they have the most beautiful garden 😍 I had to share this small slice of heaven with you, no captions because the flowers speak for themselves 😍 I hope you had a nice day with a smidgen of calm whatever you’ve been doing 🥰 I will be posting Around the world in 80 sketches tomorrow as I am completing exhausted our friends have a 2 year old and she knows I am a sucker for Peppa Pig and running round the garden 🤦🏻♀️🫠 My heart is full though ❤️

My office has officially moved outdoors 🥳☀️
There’s something about that first warm sunshine of the year that changes everything. Suddenly the air feels lighter, ideas come easier, and even the simplest tasks feel a bit more joyful. 😀 🙌🏻 Today I’m working from where I’m sat, soaking up the warmth, listening to the world carry on around me, and feeling very grateful for this little moment.💐 Sometimes a change of scenery is all creativity needs. 🫶🏻 Where would your dream outdoor office be today? 🌿💻

Are your needs unconditional? 🫶🏻
It’s something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately. We can be so quick to set high standards for other people… while quietly lowering the standard for how our own needs are met. 🙈😬 Rest gets postponed. Boundaries get bent. Creativity gets squeezed into whatever scraps of time are left. So I’m curious… What would it mean if your needs were unconditional?Not earned. Not justified. Not only met once everyone else is sorted first. 🥰 Have you ever thought about this before? And creatively… what changes when your need for space, play, expression or rest is treated as valid from the start? Broad question, I know. But sometimes the broad ones open the biggest doors. 🌿

In the world where are expectations from society are higher or demanding more than personal needs,the only way out is self love,self acceptance and awareness,. All these 3 mixed with personal boundaries give us freedom to be who we are, where our needs are met. Because this world is tough and hungry for our energy and attention. If we don't take care of ourselves nobody will do anything ,for sure. We can't pour from empty cup. If we don't rest or meet our needs , we can get in serious troubles,especially with health. I almost ruined my life and health because I used to gave gave and gave,to my family, friends,work and even strangers in the past,until i stopped. My body alarmed me to stop and take a break,rest,contemplate,meditate and put personal boundaries. We all deserve our needs to be met.

If today felt like a colour… what colour would it be, and why? 🎨✨
No right answers. No wrong answers. Just your mood in colour today. Maybe it’s bright and bold. Maybe it’s soft and quiet. Maybe it changes by the hour. Drop your colour below 👇💛 Mine would be peaceful green 💚 I’ve been super busy in the garden today but it was so good for my soul 🤩

Sometimes Creativity Needs Starving 🫶🏻🙌🏻
Today I clocked out. I’m not entirely sure why, but clearly I needed to. I took myself off to lie on the bed, switched on the TV, and let myself rest for a couple of hours. It’s not something I do very often. 🙈 Sometimes the best way to serve your creativity is to stop feeding it for a while. Not every day needs to be productive. Not every day needs to be full of ideas, making, or momentum. Some days are for pausing, softening, and letting the well refill. Being creative just wasn’t on the agenda today, and that feels more than okay. In fact, all I managed was painting a background in my sketchbook… and somehow, that was enough. A gentle reminder from me to you: rest is creative too. 🌿

Same here dear,we share same feelings and experience when it comes to rest,creativity and productivity. Productivity is a virus who attacks every creative act. The grinding is real,look around everyone is on run or survival mode.That is why smidgen percent people in this world, mostly artistic free souls can sense something and allow themselves to rest and relax. Tired body and soul are not capabe to create ,only after rest or maybe something else.I get easily inspired with cup of coffee and cheese cake🍰😍😆. You wouldn't believe it,what happened to me. Last week I started to draw nature and after 10 minutes I slept ,it's sad but I am overworked and too exhausted to even do my hobbies. From June I will have more time to dedicate myself to one and only faithfull love-Art. I am looking forward to start with my Art again,just have to finish some transition with my career,it's extremelly heavy and hard. So in the near future I will post some of my Arts even here sometimes,when I will have more time for my beautiful hobbies. Wish you fantastic weekend dear 🌟🌞💖.
