Sneak Peek: Behind the Scenes of Holiday Nouveau

The Holiday Nouveau collection is my artistic homage to the glitz, glamour, and rich colors of a winter celebration. From the first moments of brainstorming to handcrafting each color, I’ve poured layers of inspiration into this collection to make it truly special.

Here’s a look at how it all comes together:

Concept & Color: I start with an inspiration board and mind map brainstorming, gathering mood images, colors, and textures that evoke the elegance of Art Nouveau and holiday magic. This becomes the color palette foundation for the collection.

Handcrafted with Care: Each color is blended, tested, and refined to create hues that layer beautifully for mixed media work. Imagine luxurious pigments that can be used alone or combined for rich, layered effects that enhance your projects.

Explorations of Surfaces: Each handcrafted paint in my collections undergoes a thoughtful testing process across a variety of substrates and papers. From smooth watercolor sheets to textured mixed-media surfaces, I explore how each pigment interacts with the unique qualities of different materials and mark making tools. This careful testing reveals the paint’s depth, luminosity, and flow, allowing me to ensure that each color performs beautifully whether layered, blended, or used for fine detail work.

BTS Swatches: The paint-making process is magical. Here are some swatch previews to show how each product in the box can create unique effects—perfect for backgrounds, texture, and layering.
