my first time selling at a market was SO much fun!! it was so interesting seeing what sold and what people were most interested in 🫶

i haven’t posted about it but i’m a big sewist so i sold some hand-sewn things too and my stuffed goose toys ended up being the biggest seller! i gave them all name tags and people loved that! the first sale i made was to a little girl who really took her time picking out her ideal goose - she ended up choosing pesto, my favourite one 🥹 i stuffed up the payment on that one and didn’t realise until later so it didn’t go through (my first big lesson of the day!!) but i’m just happy that pesto found a good home 😍💞

testing out my new watercolour palette!! i love how earthy and cool toned this green is!! plus it’s so pigmented that i can get a huge variety of tones depending on how much or how little water i use 🌱🦖

i wish i was a duck 🦆 i have a question! does anyone use white watercolour paints? i recently made a jar of white paint to mix with other pigments and create custom colours but i’m wondering if it’s worth making some white watercolour pans while i’m at it! i personally don’t use white in my own paintings but i’m curious if anyone else does 🙇‍♀️💭

i ♥️ my bright red watercolour!!! red is a very annoying paint to make because i have to mull it for hours but the outcome is soooo worth it!!!

i think this one is my new favourite shimmer paint!!! it really is like a galaxy in the form of a watercolour paint 🪐🌌

i’m soooo excited about these little keychain palettes!! i carry my little fairy meadows palette with me all the time and it’s perfect for everyday painting but i’m making this sparkly palette as something you can add to your travel kit for a bit of playfulness without taking up heaps of space! which other colours do you think i should add?

this guy is a bit funky (i fear i went too far with the highlights..) but i wanted to add an animal in motion rather than just sitting still!! what should i add now?? i’m thinking it’s time to branch (aha) out with some trees or plants!!

these are all being painted with my handmade watercolours which are available on my website! the bright red was so perfect for this painting :3
