The artist life:
I had the privilege of taking Wendy Artin’s workshop in NYC, and I can hardly believe it! :) (Look my happy face! hahaha)
I am planning to write about it on the next bulletin. Let me know if you like to read it.
Exciting news on the horizon! 🎨 I’m in the process of planning a STUDIO SALE, and it could be a fantastic opportunity to grab an original piece of art as a unique end-of-year gift. Keep an eye out for more details coming soon (subscribe to this newsletter and share with your best friends!!) — you won't want to miss it!

It’s beautiful, touching, and brilliantly done!
Came across this Bird Party, an initiative of Australia’s oldest library, State Library of NSW, and it sounds incredible! What a fantastic idea! I’d LOVE to see those books up close, surrounded by fellow bird and book enthusiasts.

Seeing the actress Cate Blanchett mention the Brazilian writer Clarice Lispector is amazing! She’s truly one of the most brilliant writers of all time. If you're curious about Clarice, there’s an American biographer named Benjamin Moser who has dedicated a lot of his work to showcasing Clarice’s genius to the world.

This creamy apple oatmeal:
To make the creamy apple oatmeal, start by warming a tablespoon of coconut oil in a pan over medium heat. Add grated fresh ginger and cinnamon, stirring for less than a minute until fragrant. Then, toss in one diced apple and cook them until they soften and become aromatic. Next, stir in 2 tablespoons of oats and 1 cup of oat milk, cooking while stirring frequently until the mixture reaches a creamy consistency. Finally, serve it in a bowl and top it with keto granola for added crunch.
Enjoy!
:)
