COLLECTION — CREATE TO RECONNECT WITH YOURSELF

 

This collection was born from a simple need : to share with you what has done me good. Taking a little time for yourself, giving yourself some attention, isn't a luxury — you're worth it. You are the most important person in your life, and that deserves some attention.

Not everyone can make it to my studio in Ericeira. To accompany you wherever you are, I created a collection of practical notebooks — designed as small art-therapy guides, to practise at home, at your own pace, with no complicated materials or prior experience needed.

Available in English, French and Portuguese.

 

What these notebooks bring you

  • Calm the mind — when thoughts keep circling at night, or the mental load never really lifts.
  • Reconnect with your senses — when the day was spent behind a screen, feeling a colour spread or a material take shape under your fingers brings you back in minutes.
  • Say what stays stuck — when a feeling is hard to explain, even to yourself, the gesture says what words can't get out.
  • Move through a separation or a loss — when words aren't enough anymore, setting down what you carry into the material, at your own pace, with nothing to justify.
  • Gently approach a wound that's still tender — when a memory is still painful to touch, creating lets you approach it softly, without having to face it head-on.
  • Rise after doubt, after betrayal — when you're not quite sure where you stand with yourself or with others, creating offers a space that's entirely your own, with no risk, no judgment.
  • Rebuild confidence — discovering there's nothing to get right, just to do, at your own pace.

Volume 1 — Painting, the power of colours (available now)
A notebook to calm the mind, release emotions, and restore confidence through colour. Nine guided exercises, to practise at home — no drawing or painting skills needed.



Volume 2 — Clay, a dialogue with matter (coming soon)
A notebook to reconnect with touch — kneading, shaping, letting your hands lead rather than your mind. A simple grounding, no technique required.

Volume 3 — Collage, paste to see better (coming soon)
A notebook to compose with whatever you have on hand — free gestures, layers, textures, soft colours. Another way of looking, and of looking at yourself.

And this is only the beginning…


Beyond these first three volumes, I have more surprises and new creations in the works — and one of them is really special, something I can't wait to share with you when the time is right.

Come back from time to time — this collection is only going to grow.
