Collaboration With Micasso
Hi! I’m thrilled to share the story behind my new collaboration with Micasso. This partnership feels especially meaningful because the idea has been with me for years ever since my husband and I were thinking about starting a family. I’ve always dreamed of working with a Canadian brand to create products for children.

When I received an email from the founder of Micasso inviting me to collaborate on a new line, I was beyond excited.
Here are a few photos that capture these early stages of our collaboration
Moodboards
We began the creative process by developing three distinct moodboards: one inspired by the ocean with energizing blue tones, another with a whimsical and mystical feel, and a third that was soft and neutral.
2. Creation and approval of the artwork
The three final paintings were completed to create the products. I carefully crafted three distinct pieces, each with its own unique style and character. Franceska and the entire Micasso team reviewed and approved the artwork, giving their full support and enthusiasm for the final designs!
3. Tests by Micasso of the artwork on their products
We exchanged numerous emails discussing the final result, as we both wanted the outcome to be completely seamless. The Micasso team put in a great deal of effort and dedication to discover the perfect way to showcase the art in the best possible light.
4. Photos and sharing the products with you :)

Current Favorite Supplies
Hi! I hope you are having a great summer so far! I am back from a very relaxing time with my family in the Eastern Townships.
I just wanted to take a moment to share a few of my absolute favorite supplies that I’ve been using consistently for many years. These are reliable items that have become essential in my routine.
Beam Watercolor: Made in Canada, these watercolors offer fantastic textures and colors. They provide great quality and versatility, ideal for artists looking to explore different techniques.
Watercolor - Daniel Smith The Opera Pink: This color is simply mind-blowing. It is incredibly rich and vibrant, making it perfect for adding a striking touch to your artwork.
Summer 25’ so far
Hi! I hope you are all doing well :) I am currently working on two exciting collaborations that will be launching in late 2025! I am truly thrilled about these projects. My family and I are enjoying little summer treats and outdoor activities here in Montreal.
I wanted to put together a little blog post featuring a few summer photos, some creative projects, and various bits and pieces that I’m really enjoying at the moment. I hope you will find it enjoyable and inspiring :)
Early Summer Projects
I don’t know if you saw the new prints (photo on the right) of my latest art piece that features flowers from every Canadian province and territory? I had lots of fun creating them! It’s been wonderful to hear from a few people who have added this print to a nursery. I think that’s such a great idea :)
I created a few new original paintings for Champagne & Paradis they are all listed here :)
I’ve also recently collaborated with Flambette to create an exciting new set of hand lotion and soap products! I love working with them. We’ve been working together and several products for a few years now.

For the past few weeks, I’ve been experimenting with a new type of paper, which proved to be quite a challenge since I typically work with a different kind.
A few days ago, I added these new papers to my shop !
I recently created a new section that features all of my latest paintings along with some exciting additional content, you can check it out here
I also wanted to share a book I recently purchased that is about William Morris, and it is absolutely beautiful and incredibly interesting! I really enjoy reading it together with our daughter. It’s such a wonderful way to spend time and learn something new with her.
I hope you’re enjoying a wonderful summer!

Excited for spring
Hello! I hope you’re doing well.
January is usually a month I enjoy —I’ve always loved the quiet beauty of winter. But this year, for some reason, I find myself longing for spring. Perhaps it’s the anticipation of new beginnings and fresh blooms that has me daydreaming about warmer days. In the meantime, I wanted to share a few pictures of some recent watercolor paintings I’ve been working on.
I’ve been sneaking in painting sessions whenever I can find a moment to myself. Balancing creative time with my part-time design work and life as a mom to my two-year-old keeps me busy, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. She fills my days with joy, and I cherish every second with her—she truly is the best.
I hope these little glimpses of my latest work bring a bit of inspiration to your day.

Lately, I’ve been re-watching Miss Potter (for the fourth or fifth time!). It’s such a charming and heartwarming film about the life of Beatrix Potter—perfect if you’re in the mood for something inspiring and delightful.

New Watercolor Series for Children’s Rooms
Bringing Nature to Life
For the past few days, I've been joyfully working on a new series of watercolor paintings specially designed for children’s rooms. Each creation comes to life by blending natural elements with abstract backgrounds, and it’s truly a pleasure to bring this vision to shape.
Although the release date isn’t set yet, I’m filled with enthusiasm for this project and excited to share these pieces with you! In the meantime, here’s a little preview. 🦋
