My Galleries
Somewhere between a dream and a brushstroke, a tiny world begins.
Studio Favorites
Watercolour & Gouache
Hand-painted Cards
I paint my greeting cards mostly in watercolour and gouache. They are quick, happy projects that let me play with colour, practise techniques, and keep learning. I love having a small handmade card ready for special occasions, quiet notes, and friends.
Photography
Light & Motion
Light painting began as a playful experiment with yellow fairy lights, movement, and colour. The gallery gathers the images in gold and coloured pairs. I also co-wrote an article about the process, Capture Movement Like a Brushstroke: How to Paint Motion with Light
