Back to Basics

Good evening lovelies!

I know I said on my recent Instagram post that I would take a computer break, but I felt inspired to share and connect with you before I go to sleep. I'll try and keep it short because my eyes have a hard time focusing.

Today was quite eventful. I spent the morning planning my journey to Stockholm. I will be meeting up with my dear friends from London. I haven't seen them in 2 years so it will be a lovely reunion. As I was booking my train tickets I realised how heavily dependent we are on screens. And it's the screen time that causes my symptoms to worsen. Makes me feel incredibly dizzy and nauseous.

I also needed to contact a delivery company about a new monitor that was delivered to the wrong house. I thought a larger screen would help my eyes while I work on the computer. Luckily they provided the coordinates where the package was delivered so I took a 5 minute drive to a beautiful hidden gem. The area was beautiful with lots of privacy and surrounding nature.

When I turned up at the house, it was completely abandoned and had a very eerie feeling to it. The energy there felt off and I felt like I was being watched. I was overjoyed that my package was there but I did not linger. The land was beautiful but a part of me did not want to stay there. Odd isn't it how we have these instincts. Sometimes logic doesn't always apply.

Anyway, once I got home and set up the monitor, I took a watercolour course on Domestika. It helped me get back to the basics that I learned in art school when I was studying in London. It was so nice to spend the evening relaxing and unwinding with colour and play. I filmed a lot today so I hope to put together a little video blog.

Ok now I'm getting dizzy again, so I will speak to you soon.

Have a lovely rest of your day, evening wherever you are. Stay creative!

LOTS of love!

Annika
