Watercolour with Love
Our #BookOfTheWeek is Watercolour with Love by Lena Yokota-Barth. We chat to Lena, give you a chance to win the book from Search Press and learn how-to paint a Tropical Wreath Watercolour.
Hey, my Name is Lena and I'm an japanese-german illustrator and surface pattern designer based in Germany. During my parental leave I rediscovered my love for watercolor and couldn't stop creating since then. I spent every free minute (mainly in the late evenings) working hard for my two watercolor books (Watercolour with Love and Handlettering & Watercolor) as well as for some other projects for the homedecor and greeting card industry which will launch this year. It is also the year when I turned my passion into a job and set my focus on surface pattern design and licensing.
Recreate Magnus Bane’s apartment from Shadow Hunters in #DIYTheRoom with Libby.
'I have been watching Shadow hunters on Netflix for a while and the idea of the shadow world intrigues me. What I really like about the show is the mixture of the old with the modern. Magnus Bane’s apartment may not be ultra-modern but it is very height of luxury and elegance. Every item seems to have a story behind it, which I’m sure it would if you’d been collecting things for centuries! I’d love to emulate his rustic opulent look in my own home.
