Embracing Nostalgia and Creativity with Custom Stickers

Who doesn’t love stickers? As a child, I cherished my sticker collection and still enjoy a good sticker.
Recently, I had a blast collaborating with StickerDot to create a custom sticker featuring my collage art.
StickerDot offers a wide range of custom stickers, and I couldn’t resist designing my own. The process was fun, and I chose the “Vaffancoolu” design as it best captured my artwork’s essence.
I opted for StickerDot’s Bumper Sticker with a PVC Gloss finish, featuring a square shape with clean edges that complemented my collage art.
  Placing it on the back of my phone, my sticker adds a personal touch and sparks engaging conversations with others.
Along with my custom sticker, I received an impressive sample pack from StickerDot, leaving me eager to explore more designs and place another order.
In the meantime, I will add a complementary sticker to any order from my online shop.

Intuitive Collage Workshop at Te Uru

We had an amazing day in Te Uru Gallery’s spacious and cosy workshop space, collaging and connecting. Participants came from different creative backgrounds but all enjoyed the unique experience; letting go of any expectations or plans and following intuition as a guide for the creative process.
One interesting feedback was:
“It’s not as relaxing as promised !” – a great reminder that creative flow is not always easy to tap into and can be challenging at times.
Whichever way it goes, it is always a highly rewarding experience.
