I unpacked my first ever finished oil painting (that I haven’t seen for around a year) and it felt so special. I made this one during the deepest and darkest time of my burnout and the whole process brought me hope and some really needed light✨. I’m still incredibly of myself for making this one.

First forest spring walk today🌞. I found some Yellowing curtain crust and Blushing brackets 🍄. @gardenofqueerdom.bsky.social found some horseradish, ground ivy, small nettle and cleaver🌱.

Shared my 5th newsletter in substack today 🎉🌈

Some update on how life is going now🌻🌞

Let me rephrase this:

It’s not okay that we are having a hard time taking care of ourselves / being taken care of! We don’t deserve this. But what we deserve even less, is that we are the ones who take the blame for it…(read further in comments)

It’s okay that we are having a hard time to take care of ourselves. It’s shit…yes…absolutely. We deserve it to feel like and being taken care of. But the truth is, this isn’t a given for many people in this society and the last we need is to blame ourselves for it (…read further in comment)….

Did two lino stamped tattoos again today 🌞. They make me so happy! The whole process from start (carving the designs) to finish (stamping + tattooing with my hands) is done the analog way.

Bij hun vrijlating werden Israëliërs ‘gijzelaars’ genoemd, maar Palestijnen ‘gevangenen’. Een groot deel van hen heeft alleen nooit een proces gehad. Waarom doet het ertoe welke woorden je gebruikt? ‘Als je de context niet benoemt, draag je bij aan dehumanisering van Palestijnen.’

🌈 Wrote some words on that it’s completely okay and normal when you don’t react all high energy and happy after seeing your new tattoo  for the first time💛.

Hi everyone 🌞
I’m a handpoke tattoo artist from the Netherlands and I slowed down my practice (because this world is already way to fast). I love working with colour, textures and I also do lino stamped tattoos! Here is some of my work🌈.
