In the past week I have received dozens of requests for those cards. Thanks to your support my etsy shop has become alive and my illustrations are now available!

Last week,
I took the whole week off and went to a small town in very Northern Germany to
be fully able to have a rest. Over the day, I went for walk alongside beach,
over the evening, I was drawing and reading books at the fire side with cup of
tea and cookies. Most of the time, it was rainy but even this made me feel more
cozy which I really enjoyed.
One of my drawings during this week was a portrait
of me when I was younger. I repainted a photo that I discovered recently and
kept in my mobile because I really like the picture. I love how little me leans
on the red chair and especially the colour mix and beautiful but spontaneous
composition without any artificial purpose. I think this picture reflect very
well my personality. I was always a very bright and cheerful child, maybe
sometimes even with too much energy. I wonder sometime, where all my energy has
been gone. Still today, when I am monkeying around I feel so childish and it is
hard to believe when seeing myself like this how old I actually am, but what
can you do? You are what you are :) Follow me on Instagram @yejipaints and on Facebook!
In my recentpost, I shared with you that I love painting my own Christmas cards for my
beloved ones. This card is painted for my little sister, telling her that I am
always there for her. I´m so grateful having a sister and that she is my
sister. People are always assuming that 5 years age difference is something
that can sunder us in some way but we never felt any age difference and we have
been always best friends.
One of the
things I love most about this time of year is preparing Christmas gifts for my
family and wrapping all of them, painting Christmas cards for each person I
love, making advent calendar on my own for my beloved one. We also tried to
start some of our own traditions this year – baking up a storm of sugar and
butter cookies in all the festive shapes and sizes and having holiday dinners
which was really fun and made us full :)
Can´t wait
to give my Christmas cards and share the cookies with our beloved
ones! What kind of holiday traditions do you have?
