Whenever i find your posts, i dont have my art stuff handy. I always say, ill scroll back to it when i have my stuff, but i never do. I just end up oogling your stuff and never getting to the point of painting it. Legit so inspiring tho
Let’s face it - to be a decent watercolourist, you also have to be a wizard. I still hope to make it into the club one day. Until then, though…
… let me just enjoy my endless palette of Derwent watercolour pencils, and the fact that the always-awesome @milamai doesn’t mind me playing around with her wonderful photos : * :)
I was tagged by @only-ness. Thank you, Sir Dancealot! :) I waited for many years. Finally I can show my insane playlist! :D
Rules: Write the first 10 songs that come up on shuffle (no skipping) and quote your favourite lyrics from each song.

Susanne Sundfør | Röyksopp | I remember gliding off the shore/ Until I touched the ocean floor. 3) Weak and Powerless | A Perfect Circle | Devil has my ear today, I’ll never hear a word you say. 4) Un Nouveau Soleil | M83 | La la laa laaa 5) Sinking Inside Yourself | Hammock| Next time when you wake up, You’re lost at sea. I just watch you sink down, And fade away from me. 6) Night | Ludovico Einaudi | - 7) Here to Stay | Korn | This state is elevating as the hurt turns into hating/ You’ve taken everything and oh, I cannot give any more. 8) Eclipse/Blue feat.

That picture of the stars you posted on March 09th is one of the most incredible shots I have ever seen in my life. Every element is in perfect proportion to everything around it, and the colours are etherial.

I have been bullied all my life 😭I had a difficult time at art school. How did you get the courage to show your art? Any advise or guidance will be hugely appreciated.
This is a great and important question. When I was a teenager, I performed one song from Beethoven in my ”own way”. A principal of our music school didn’t like my version and told me: ”Beethoven would have rolled in his grave if he would had heard that”. I answered: ”How can you know? Did you ask him?” That story sums up what kind of attitude I have when it comes to art. You have to do things in that way you feel right in your heart. It’s not important to impress everyone, if you try, you will lose yourself in that process. When you create and put yourself out there, you have to face all your fears and overcome them. In the end art teaches us not to be afraid. The scariest thing is to be vulnerable and honest, but it’s the only way to make your life worth living.
When you accept yourself completely, that is the most powerful thing you can do. Bullies try to make you feel shame, but without shame, they have nothing. The shame is theirs, not yours. You can’t control how other people behave. Even if you were kind to others, it doesn’t mean they will treat you the same way. Always set boundaries and give your energy to people who actually care about you. A person who purposely strikes your insecurities doesn’t deserve a thought from you. Respect and kindness are communication, and communication is always a two-way street. If you are the only one who speaks, move on.
This society makes you feel that you have to be a certain way to be accepted, and spends so much time rallying people against each other by feeding on our insecurities. That is bullshit. There is no one like you. You are unique, we all are. Just love yourself and what you do, no matter what.
I’ve been bullied my whole life too. So trust me when I say this: Fuck those who try to put you down! Be the artist you were born to be!
Hello! You’re work is truly inspiring for me as an amateur photographer, your pictures make me feel things I don’t feel in my everyday life. How did you learn to take such good pictures? Do you have any tips to take great photos? Thank you very much for lighting the world up! ❤️🌄
Hello! It would be more helpful to you if you could write me and show me some of your pictures. I can give better tips that way :) It makes me glad if you feel like that! Thank you ❤️
absolutely loved yr photos! what kind of cameras do you suggest for very beginner amateur photographers? and what cameras do you use?
Thank you so much! :) I have used many Canon cameras (Canon PowerShot A300, 400d, 50d, 7d, 6d etc). I’m posting old and new pictures in my blog. I’d say that you can buy Canon, Sony, Nikon, what ever - any camera will do. Photography is always about the eye :)
