To be honest, spiders are not my favourite critters but look at the pattern on this lady!!

At first glance nothing and then they are everywhere, fairy caps, or trooping crumble
caps, or in Dutch 'zwerminktzwammen'.

Last September I started a new project, a Forest Diary.Ā It's not going to have daily entries,
it's going to be a drawn note of what I've seen during my walks.
Since nature is so important to me (and the world!) and such a great inspiration I want
toĀ make a fun diary in which I draw the things I saw in the woods on that particular day.
The first entry is about redĀ gnomeĀ hats,Ā toadstools, green rooftops and a littleĀ toadĀ I found
on the bicycle path.

At this moment I have no idea what direction my life is going. Still not sure about what is
going to happen with my job and because of that not knowing if and when I will need to start
giving my own classes.
A few things I do know, I need to paint, draw and print what I want or need to make.
Last couple of years I started to do the ābusiness-thingā.
Writing my blog every week, keeping my website up to date, sending out monthly
newsletters, having a webshop, start on Etsy and Society6, posting on Facebook, posting on
Instagram etc. etc.
But in the end it didnāt do much for me. It just costs me very important making timeā¦
So I might become a bit more silent online, I just want to make, I donāt want to take into
account size, colour, what people might like or dislike. Just make.

Last Friday Linda Rusconi and I had our Print Pop-up Shop and it was lots of fun.Ā We probably
will organize something like it again!
During that day I printed three different butterflies: the Lime Hawk-moth, the RedĀ Admiral
(Atalanta) and the Wall Brown of which I like the Dutch name better being ArgusĀ butterfly.
Named after Argus Panoptes, the giant from Greek mythology whose body wasĀ covered with
100 eyes of which not two would sleep at the same time.
The Argus butterfly has two prominent āeyesā which show when its wings are folded up.
This Sunday, June 24th, Iām showing my art at Artplein Spui AmsterdamĀ and I framed two of
three butterflies which I will bring.
Next to that I will bring my complete Sleeping Animals series, both framed and unframed , all
three butterflies and much more.Ā Hope to see you then!
You can find these printsĀ in my shop here!
