Hello! Sorry for disappearing for about a year, my OCD got very bad towards the end of 2020 and I’ve spent a lot of time trying to get back to normal and regain control over my life. I think I’m finally good to run this little blog again! These illustrations are so comforting to me; that warm, nostalgic style is a home always there to be returned to. I’ve found that colouring books really help me and have been working my way through a Beatrix Potter one - it reminded me how important these things are to me I think. Anyway, I’m so excited to be back. Hope you’re all doing well!
