![]() ![]() ![]() Sometimes I see an interesting thing in my surroundings or in nature and get a wish to recreate it in my way with my style but most of the time I don’t think a lot in advance what I will paint. What inspires your creativity?Įverything and nothing. I use a lot of different shades of the same color on a rock and this is also the the reason why it would be very “time consuming” to paint a rock at a time. I never paint one rock at a time, I always paint several, it is a way to save time on mixing the paint (you wouldn’t believe how much time you waste on colors preparation). What’s your best time-saving painting shortcut or hack? I do use the dotting tools as well sometimes, it all depends on what I am painting. ![]() I like to use Cadence paints and little brushes that can be found online as “nail painting brushes”. Through the years I experimented with lots of tools and paint brands. What are your favorite art tools to work with when you’re creating beautiful painted rocks? – picture of part of my work space is attached. Of course when my little guy comes to my office the situation gets out of control… he just loves to play with colors, pens and especially rocks. Lots of people call that creative mess but for me it’s just mess and I need to get it cleaned immediately :). Even a slightest mess in my works pace blocks me from painting. I am one of these nerds who just need to have everything neatly organised. Luckily I have my own work space (office) that is dedicated to my paints, brushes, packaging material and everything necessary to get my Etsy and Amazon shops running smoothly. Maybe I even had it before but since I got my baby the process is defined as following “ find 10 minutes of alone time, sit down and paint something :D” I usually paint in late evenings, once the baby is asleep and I finally have some time for myself. Well, I am not sure I have a creative process. I studied Program Engineering, got my masters degree, got a job in IT and then finally started painting again! It was like 5 years ago, but I am pretty sure I won’t forget to paint again □ What is your creative process like? Although it was always my favorite thing to do, I somehow managed to forget this during High school and College and I stopped. Hello, my name is Mirela □ I can’t really remember when I started with the painting, it was sometimes in Elementary School.
