A Dose of Whimsy #13

First laughs and blowing bubbles!

Hello again lovely people and welcome to another ‘Dose of Whimsy’ instalment. In this monthly post I share all of my whimsical arty play and creative thoughts. 😊

The sun is out and so are we. This month has been glorious and very special. My daughter had her first laugh a couple of days ago and I cried with delight. She’s also started holding things and blowing bubbles! I feel like I’m seeing the world in a whole new light as I wander around with her. I’ve not spent time creating as much this month as previously, but I’m taking in all the inspiration for when Nina’s naps get longer (fingers crossed)! 😂

Nature and Life Journal

We just got back from a gorgeous little holiday to the North Coast of Sydney and it was a delight coming home and documenting my travels in my journal. I even tried some simple little landscapes from photos from the adventure whilst breastfeeding on the couch.

Artwork Spotlight - Flying Kookaburra

I created this artwork as another tin design for Banksia Red but it didn’t end up being used. My paid subscribers will receive a high-quality A4 PDF of this artwork to print and put on their walls.

A Drawing a Day 2025

My daily doodles are a great little way of ensuring that I do something creative every day (even if it’s just something little). Here’s a small selection of the doodles from this month.
