Autumn mini class

Autumn is my favorite time of the year, in this time I really feel more creative, more playful, more crafty. So I knew we have to create something together!!!!!

If you like to be creative, draw, paint and explore several materials and techniques, I am offering an Autumn Mini Class-  "Love Autumn days!"

What you will get from this class:

- We will start by making a simple Autumn journal page

- Make a portrait - we will make an Autumn sweet girl and explore mixed media techniques : draw faces, painting, texture, collage, stamp, making a sweet animal and natural elements (the one one the picture).

- I will provide inspiration and you will have some sheets to print

- video time: more or less 1h 30 ( 5 part video portrait + 1 journaling video)

This will be a self-thought class, in English only.

Are you ready to play with me, in some rainy cozy days, this Autumn?

Mini price - $22

I hope you join me :)

Around here lately

Around here lately, I have been working with different projects at the same time, while my husband in this last month comes and goes with lots of traveling, I have to be for the kids, house and more. It's not always easy, but my inner voice always tells me to not worry and do the best I can. And that´s what I have been trying to do, the best I can ;)

Some people asked me about the paintings with wood frames, so I have painted this one on the weekend . "Counting stars" is the name of the painting, I hope you like it.

Closer on the next picture.

If you are interested, is already available in my shop.

Helping as well, my sisters project "Ritinha" ( little Rita) love. Light. Joy.  This is a project in a baby stage, to grow spiritual awareness of children, in portuguese. I am developing some characters for her stories and musics. Really adorable and fun :)

I leave you sending love and light to you.

Autumn Equinox painting and journaling

                 

Today starts the Autumn equinox, the beginning of autumn in the Northern Hemisphere. This is my favorite season of the year. I love the warm colors that start to appear here in lisbon and my favorite part I feel more creative and more crafty. So I really love going to my studio table and just play with my materials, in this one I was thinking about how Autumn always reminds me kittens and cozyness and feeling good, surrounding myself with things that really put a smile on my face.

So talking about Autumn, I have been very inspired by Sophie Isobel Asher , love her beautiful pictures, words of wisdom and the simplicity of her journal pages. A few days ago, inspired by this blog post of Sophie and to celebrate this change of season, I went for a walk in the garden, feeling nature and picking some leafs to include in my next journal page. 

Gathering some pictures from magazines and words, while I was listening my intuition, on going simple and beautiful and it was such a joy, that I definitely will start journaling more often like this.

Sending love in your direction

Listen - A message for you

Inside my new book "A little secret" you will find 2 pages with 32 cards, with simple and positive words to inspire children and parents everyday. 

They are made to help children to develop their intuition and relationship with their spiritual side and they are small to fit in tiny hands ;) This cards can be used by anyone since they have always positive sugestions that you can apply and remember during your day and help you.

                

These cards have sweet illustrations and very easy and fun to use. The idea is to connect with your heart, ask a question and receive a direction from the cards. The positive words are to think, to make a conversation, to write about what comes to your mind when you read those words... ( more on the book)

                   

Today I had the idea, to once a week, take one card and write a little text about it and if you are reading for sure this words are for you :) 

Listen is the card for today

Sometime you have that little voice inside of your head, whispering ideas and inspiration, do you listen or you think that is the crazy you talking? Well, when this little voice speaks to you is your inner voice, the wisdom you have inside of yourself, guiding you. Listen! Maybe you laugh when you hear the idea in your head, but why don't you try. Maybe is there, the solution you have prayed for, even if it sounds crazy! So trust in that connection that you have with the divine , with your guides, with the source you have inside of yourself.

Maybe you are needing to stop and meditate for a while, so you can listen your inner voice or just lay down on your bed, listen some nature sounds or soft music, take a long bath or go for a walk. Treating yourself good and proportionate wellbeing moments, really helps to open your heart, smooth your mind and relax your body and be ready to listen.

A big hug from me to you and give your little voice a chance, she is amazing ;)
