THROWBACK day 21 #marchmeetthemaker2019 I painted this one back in september, and it means something special to me, as it was the first painting I painted, after I bought my first large sheets of quality watercolour paper. It was a point, where I started to take my self serious as an artist👩🏻‍🎨💙💙 And yesterday I took another step, just a little thing, I changed my IG handle from karinapetersendesign to karinapetersenart. It’s hard for me to embrace and own the words “art” and “artist”. But I’ve been thinking about this for a while, and I think that my account contains more art than design🎨🤔😀
DREAM COLLABORATION day 19 #marchmeetthemaker2019 I would love to see my surface designs on a nice stationary line, notebooks, greeting cards, gift paper and so on🔮✨✨So today I’m asking for your help☺️🙏🏻 What’s your favorite stationary brand? Who do you think I should collaborate with?
MISTAKE OR LESSON day 17 #marchmeetthemaker2019 “Let’s make better mistakes tomorrow” when I was a student I had this quote pinned to my boad for years. I’m not so afraid of making mistakes, it’s all part of learning🎨 In this piece there are some mistakes, but I wonder if you would see them as mistakes?🤔🤔😀 the darkest parts in the middle are not as elegant in their shape, as I would like them to be, but maybe it’s only me☺️
WHAT I’M WORKING ON day 16 #marchmeetthemaker2019 I’m working on getting ready to sell my originals, this means painting more originals AND finally updating my homepage and creating a webshop. But it going slow right now🐌🐌🐌 and I’m learning to accept, that keeping up with everyday life is all I can manage right now💙
WORKSPACE day 16 #marchmeetthemaker2019 This is my workspace aka dining table💁🏻‍♀️ and I’m sure, if I don’t had to pack away my materials each time, it would be even more messy🙈
MOTIVATION / GOALS day 15 #marchmeetthemaker2019 My goal is to be happy with what I do. To do as many fun projects as possible and to have a nice everyday together with my sons. Of course I would love to live entirely from my art and design projects, but I think there is still a long way. And I want it to be sustainable, this means I’ll rather grow my business slowly, and enjoy the journey 🐌🌱💚
HOW I LEARNT day 14 #marchmeetthemaker2019 A big question somehow🤔🤔 but primary I learn by doing things, by experimenting. The technique I use today has evolved gradually, it is not something I’ve learned or seen anywhere. I don’t remember how it started, but gradually I just began to use more an more water💦💦💙
