Calendar

Some of you might have seen the passion planner. I've shared their ideas and as a thank you I was allowed to print one for myself which I now have done. From my grandma I learned how to bind books a few years ago and here is my new calendar:
frontview
I got the fabric in Barcelona in a store for japanese fabrics. Haven't found one in Sweden yet, so I might be forced to do some more holidays there.

the fabric goes all around the cover
The corners are in blue paper. I figured that the fabric might bulge a lot around the edges and that paper might be better in that case. 

Inside
I love the separation of the work and personal to do lists and the enormous work they've put into organizing your personal goals. Hopefully this helps me achieve some of my wished this year.

New year, new challenges

A happy new year to you all there. I hope you had a good start with a fun party.
For this year I decided to try and sell some of my artwork and/or clothes I sew. So I started to paint on my watercolour paper again and not in my sketchbook (not so easy to sell just one page of a book).
Koi
The first ones were some jellyfish (maybe I put up all of them later on) and now this koi carp.
So if you are interested in a painting of mine or if you got something specific that you want me to paint (like portraits of a friend for his/her birthday) just send me a mail :)
