#10 So much going on behind the scenes!

A month has past already and I just kept postponing to write a blog for May. There’s so much going on behind the scenes! On Mother’s Day I got a beautiful present: Himi gouache paint I’ve been wanting to try for a long time now. I did open […]

BillyBird Park Hemelrijk

I volunteered to accompany a trip to BillyBird Park Hemelrijk with my sons school. There was a big playground outside and a smaller playground inside. So much fun for the kids! Of course I noticed all the beautiful art they had over there. And I wanted to share […]
