The sun is shining in the distance, the days are getting longer, flowers are beginning to bloom and the sky is creating beautiful blue backdrops. It’s finally time to invest in a new colour. And what better colour to pair the first month of Spring with, apart from blue? Blue is my go-to colour and…
Spring Clean
Feels like winters cooking up a storm. There’s nothing like using the arrival of Spring as an excuse to draw. The best way to update my work is with a statement blue palette, adding a little spring into my step. The cooler shades have so far been my favourite colours to work with. Think sky,…
Art in Detail
As a fan of extreme detailing, I’ve merged my mandalas with Arabesque patterns. Islamic art is a form mathematical elegance. I therefore, dusted off my old geometry set and got straight into constructing new elaborate mandalas.
Seeing Red
The Icy temperatures may still be ruling the day, but I’ve already moved onto spring. Springs trendy colours are taking centre stage with my latest mandala. These warm colours, thankfully make me rethink the current weather. I’ve partnered iconic red with rosey purple and deep plum. Aiming to transform the mandala from bold to soft…
Positive Theory
The festival of romance maybe over, but can we hold onto the slow dance of roses a little while longer. Valentine’s Day is more than just unveiling your love for someone else. It’s about honoring love and manifesting some of it for yourself. However, this shouldn’t happen once a year. Leaving you with a quote…
Colour Of The Month: Red
To get my colour game going, I’m starting a new colour of the month series. To begin I’m pairing February with red. Yes, a large part of February is painted with red thanks Valentine’s Day. But I’m not thinking of John Paul Young’s song “love is in the air”. Growing up in London, I’d see…
New Beginnings
Congratulations, we made it out of cold, gloomy January. The month lasted 60 elongated days. I feel like we expect too much from January, the month of abandoned resolutions and forgotten diet promises we made before festive feasts. But now it’s finally February, we can get on with the year and fitly restart our resolutions….
Colour me beautiful
Colour talks, I’d like for it to work with me, not against me. Picking the right palette is like going back to school; spending hours going over different schemes and learning the theory behind them. I have good and bad hue days. There are times where I’ve chosen a wrong palette and have only noticed…
Behind every artwork
Behind every intricate geometric composition is a guideline, repeated patterns and lots of patience. For a newbie a first glance at mandala’s may seem impossible to replicate, but truth is it’s the complete opposite. The rhythm that flows through my mandala art is simple, it’s rows and rows of 100 repeated patterns. So without further…
The Mindful Artist.
I’m all for living a healthy, nutritious lifestyle and believe true beauty comes from within. Therefore, I make sure I intake enough of the right supplements. I ordered some vitamins from Advanced Nutrition Programme. Which arrived this week in an adorable box and packaged in lovely tins; one side of the invoice looked like it…
