Day dreaming

I am a daydreamer. It isn't a bad thing. I'm happy with what I've got. Hoping daydreaming become my future. I'm dreaming of a simple living. Slow life with hens, fruit and vegatable garden and little workspace for my illustrations and crafts. Slow food. Countryside. Rural landscape. Walks. Nature. Family life. It doesn't seems much but is enough for me...

When I discovered Nikki McClure, it was like a ray of morning sunlight. Suddenly my own childhood memory flashed in front of my eyes and my own motherhood of raising my son close to nature.  My son loves our recent purchase, her book "Is it summer yet?". Simple life can be so inspiring, especially when so close to nature. The ilustrations are paper cuts which makes it even more impressive. Her work depicts simple living, motherhood, parental life, farmers life; everyday tasks and duties but also a celebration of life; laying in the grass, stopping to contemplate the peace and beauty of nature.  We absolutely fell in love with that book, so there is more to be ordered...

I would like to introduce You to few of my favourite people and great artists:

Sabina Sallis  is a video artist but also known for performance, paintings, illustrations and mothering two children. I only just met her but feels like I'd known her for years, and since now have a baby too, we've got quite a few things in common. Her works are great. The videos reminded me a crossroads between Pipilotti Rist and Mariko Mori. Her main inspiration is the relationship between human condition and nature and her works are truly amazing and she is as well. Creative and talented. Do check her website.

From time to time I would like to introduce You to my friends-artists who are simply wonderful and their work worth sharing with the world.
