It’s been a crazy busy time lately, but I finally got back to this project. This time going down the more gothic route, after feeling very inspired by both Wednesday and the . I think this may be my favourite so far. What is inspiring you lately?

Self-doubt: the dream killer we all know too well. 😩 Have you ever let self-doubt hold you back? In my latest Substack post, "Self-Doubt, Killer of Dreams?"

I'm getting real about my own struggles with building a business and chasing my dreams. I'm sharing my thoughts on overcoming those inner voices that tell us we can't. What are your biggest self-doubt triggers? Let's chat in the comments! And then head over to my Substack (link in bio) for the full post.

Do you ever feel like you're performing a role rather than truly being yourself? How does that affect your creativity?
I've been thinking a lot lately about how we present ourselves to the world and how that impacts my own creative process. It led me to write "How Does Masking Affect Creativity?" – a deep dive into the ways we hide parts of ourselves and how that can either stifle or fuel our artistic expression. This is a topic I'm really passionate about, and I'd love for you to join the conversation. Head over to my Substack (link in bio!) to read the full post and share your experiences.

This was an unfinished portrait test piece that I did of my Nan who is no longer with us. My plan is to do a large version of this along with other people in her community. It is a large scale project so it’s just carving out the time. But I remember talking to my Nan about it and her being really excited about it, so I’d really like to finish the project, but if I’m honest I haven’t wanted to go there yet 😢.

Paradise Crossing- Graphite on paper, A3

This drawing was created during a summer in the Ashdown Forest, where every day. I would cross over this little bridge on my daily walks with the dogs. I loved observing this bridge when I’d come throughout the seasons, with the water levels changing and flowing more of less rapidly. I wanted to capture a little slither of paradise to take home with me, as it holds such fond memories. I have exhibited this piece twice now and it still holds a source of wonder and inspiration for me.

Playing around with the same colour palette as my forest painting for a statement piece. This is A3 but I’m thinking about doing larger version of this. What do you think? I’m not sure what colours to try next?

This was a fun project for a story, that eventually turned in to the inspiration for a mural design! It’s funny how one thing leads to another.

Hello everyone, and welcome to my creative corner! I'm Ashley, a watercolour artist living by the sea in beautiful St Leonards-on-Sea. I'm so excited to finally share my passion for art, nature, and sustainability with you here. I create enchanting forest scenes, whimsical art, and delicate portraits that I hope will bring a touch of magic and personality to your lives (and homes!). Being environmentally conscious is a huge part of who I am, and it's why I adore the unique textures and luminous qualities of watercolour – a medium that aligns with my commitment to sustainable practices. I'll be sharing my latest creations, behind-the-scenes glimpses of my process, and maybe even a few tips and tricks along the way. I'd love for you to join me on this artistic journey – please like and follow my page to stay updated! And if you're interested in a custom piece, capturing anything from a beloved pet to a magical fairy scene, don't hesitate to get in touch. Let's connect and create something beautiful together!
