About to turn 31.

Not married. No house. No babies.

Just colors and a different kind of timeline.

This is for anyone who’s ever felt like they’re not “where they should be.”

Maybe you are exactly where you are ment to be.

Maybe you’re just growing in color too.

💬 Does this resonate with you?

→ Feel free to share it with someone who needs it.

-----------

A punt de fer 31 anys.

No estic casada. No tinc hipoteca. No tinc fills.

Només colors i un camí que no segueix el guió establert.

Aquest vídeo és per a totes les que us heu sentit fora de lloc.

Potser ets exactament on has de ser.

Potser tu també estàs creixent en colors.

💬 Et ressona? Explica-m’ho.

This was a last-minute addition—something instinctive.

I’ve always admired how @victoriarosepark adds textured color marks to her paintings. It feels honest, tactile, and human. That inspired me to try something of my own.

For each painting in my new series, I’m now adding five marks of color, made with pigment and molding paste. They reflect the only colors I see with my bad eye.

I have limited vision in this eye. What stays with me are just a few color blocks—usually five. No detail. Just emotional impressions.

This is the most personal part of the painting.

-------------

Ha estat una decisió d’última hora.

Sempre m’ha inspirat com Victoria Rose Park incorpora marques de color amb textura a les seves obres. És una manera honesta i humana de connectar amb la pintura.

A cada quadre de la nova sèrie hi afegeixo ara cinc marques de color. Reflecteixen els colors que aconsegueixo veure amb l'ull dolent.

Tinc visió limitada en aquest ull. El que em queda són només unes poques taques de color—normalment cinc. Sense detalls. Només impressió emocional.

És la part més personal del quadre.

Every painting has hidden treasures.

This one holds the colors, textures, light, and memories of Collioure… and summer friendships that never fade

Which detail is your favorite?

Save this for when you need Mediterranean inspiration!

-------------------------

Cada quadre amaga petits tresors.

Aquest conté els colors, textures, llum i records de Cotlliure… i d’aquelles amistats d’estiu que mai s’esvaeixen

Quin detall és el teu preferit?

Desa-ho per inspirar-te amb la Mediterrània!

Summer friendships are the most magical...
Do you have someone you only meet in summer, but when you do, it feels like no time has passed?

This painting was inspired by a photo I took in Collioure, France, that frames a moment that made me think of the perfect summer friendship.

Tell me your summer friendship story below.

-----------------------------

Les amistats d’estiu són les més màgiques...
Tens algú a qui només veus a l’estiu, però quan us retrobeu sembla que el temps no hagi passat?

Aquesta obra està inspirada en una fotografia que vaig fer a Cotlliure, França, que enquadra un moment que em fa pensar en un estiu perfecte amb els amics.

Explica’m la teva història d’amistat d’estiu.

Close-up moments in the studio… I’ve been working on this coastal town painting while listening to the thoughtful words of @brookecormier on her YouTube channel. I really enjoy her insights and the calm, honest way she shares her artistic journey. It feels like the perfect companion while I create

Mornings are when I feel most productive and connected to my work. And although we all know we should "take care of ourselves," I feel (me, the first!) that we rarely give it the space it deserves. Creating in peace, with something inspiring in the background, is my small way of practicing it.

A quiet start to something meaningful.

There’s always something sacred about the first moment of a new painting. This time, it’s the beginning of a very special portrait commission that holds deep personal meaning for the family who entrusted me with it. I love how the soft turquoise flows onto the raw cotton, like a memory taking shape. I can’t wait to see where this journey leads.

I always choose colors that bring calm, warmth, and timeless beauty to a home 💙

This Mediterranean palette will inspire my next work.

👉 Save it if you love this aesthetic for your home.

👉 Share it with someone who dreams of Mediterranean serenity

My studio is imperfect, cozy, and full of tiny rituals I adore 💙

Every morning, these little details bring me peace before I begin creating.

Tell me: what small thing makes your home or space feel special?

When @adriadeluna and @ninablancos wedding day arrived, @carlosjo21 and I knew we wanted to give them something truly personal, and so we thought in a personalized painting, inspired by the sea where we’ve shared such beautiful memories together.

He crafted the frame, I captured the moment on canvas.

This is why I love creating art.

Because the most beautiful gift is one that holds meaning and emotion.

If you’d love to turn a memory into art for yourself or someone you love, I’d be honored to help.
Tell me… what memory would you choose? 👇

#artgift #weddinggift #personalizedpainting

Quan va arribar el dia del casament de l'Adrià i la Nina, el Carlos i jo sabíem que volíem regalar-los quelcom realment personal, i vam pensar en un quadre personalitzat, inspirat en el mar on hem compartit tants records bonics junts.

Ell va crear el marc, jo vaig capturar el moment sobre el llenç.

Això és el que més m’estimo de crear art.

Perquè el regal més bonic és aquell que guarda significat i emoció.

Si t’agradaria transformar un record en art per a tu o per a algú que estimes, estaria encantada d’ajudar-te.
Explica’m… quin record triaries? 👇

Hi, I’m Mireia 🤍
I’m an artist based just outside Barcelona. I’ve spent the past years exploring painting—portraits, abstracts, landscapes... and a mix of mediums, always trying to find my own voice.

Right now, something quieter is calling me.
I’ve just started a new collection of landscape fragments and moments, instants, memories tied to the Mediterranean Sea. Painted with acrylic on raw cotton canvas, these works are honest, emotional, and deeply personal.

I don’t know exactly where this is going yet—but I’m letting it unfold.

If you’re someone who finds peace in stillness, beauty in memory, and art that feels like a breath,
I’d love to have you here.

Hola, sóc la Mireia 🤍
Sóc artista i visc a prop de Barcelona. Els últims anys he estat explorant la pintura—retrats, abstractes, paisatges... i una barreja de tècniques, buscant la meva pròpia veu.

Ara mateix, sento que em crida alguna cosa més natural, més tranquil·la.
Acabo de començar una nova col·lecció de fragments de paisatges i moments, instants, records lligats al mar Mediterrani. Pintats amb acrílic sobre tela de cotó en brut, són obres sinceres, emocionals i molt meves.

No sé exactament cap a on em portarà aquesta col·lecció, però la deixo créixer a poc a poc,.

Si ets d’aquelles persones que troben pau en la calma, bellesa en el record i art que respira,
m’encantaria que et quedessis.

I didn’t know I was starting a collection. Actually, the idea hit me just after signing the painting.
I just painted a photography I really liked and that made me feel still in Cadaqués.

I called it "Colors del Mediterrani".

And so, later I saw it clearly: it was the first fragment.

"Down the Memory Lane – Mediterranean Fragments"
is my journey back through painted memories along mediterranean water — one canvas at a time.

------------

No sabia que començava una col·lecció, de fet la idea em va venir després de signar.
Només vaig pintar una fotografia que m'agradava i em feia sentir encara a Cadaqués.

La vaig titular "Colors del Mediterrani".

I ho vaig tenir clar: era el primer fragment.

Down the Memory Lane – Fragments del Mediterrani
és el meu viatge cap enrere a través dels records pintats al costat de les aigües mediterrànies— un quadre després de l'altre.

It began with a picture taken on a sunny, happy day.
The kind of day you don’t realize will stay with you.
I didn’t paint the photo — I painted how it felt.

This piece is just one note in a larger story.

🎨 "Colors del Mediterrani" • Acrylic on raw cotton

Va començar amb una foto feta en un bon dia molt assolellat.
D’aquells dies que no saps que es quedaran amb tu.
No he pintat la foto — vaig pintar com se sentia.

Aquesta peça és només una nota dins d’una història més gran.

Yesterday, the world stood still.
No electricity. No screens.
A society made powerless by its own choices.
Some lives today depend completely on this digital world.
Yesterday was a wake-up call.
We cannot keep building our lives around digitalization alone.
We must return to real connection, to nature, to what truly sustains the soul.

I felt grateful that what I do — painting — doesn't stop when the power goes out.
I simply moved outside, into the sunlight, and continued creating.
Art lives beyond the screens.

Share this with someone who needs to remember:
their life is bigger than a screen.

--------------------

Ahir, el món es va aturar.
Sense electricitat. Sense pantalles.
Una societat que s'ha inutilitzat ella mateixa.
Avui hi ha vides que depenen completament d'aquest món digital.
Ahir va ser una advertència.
No podem continuar construint la nostra vida només al voltant de la digitalització.
Hem de tornar a la connexió real, a la natura, al que realment sustenta l'ànima.

Vaig sentir-me agraïda que el que faig — pintar — no s'atura quan falta la llum.
Només vaig haver de moure'm a fora, aprofitant la llum natural, i seguir creant.
L’art viu més enllà de les pantalles.

Comparteix-ho amb algú que necessiti recordar:
la seva vida és més gran que una pantalla.

Some random pictures from last week. I didn't have any pictures from Sant Jordi ☺️ too busy enjoying the day!

Some sketches and color and form studies, some scenes from life and...

SO HAPPY THAT I CAN STRETCH MY CANVAS WITHOUT ANY HELP!! 😁😁

Also, remember that the GIVEAWAY will be active until the 31st of may (or me arriving to 1k, which I honestly doubt but, hey, I said I was a dreamer, right?)

This painting started simply — I wanted to use spring colors. No place in mind, just soft greens and blues and some purples.
Then we went to Cadaqués.

While walking between Cadaqués and Port Lligat, we passed Dalí’s house and followed the coastline. That’s when I realized: the painting I had started was already becoming la Costa Brava.

Those purple flowers I’d painted earlier? Similar ones were growing all along the cliffs.

Originally, the water was greyish. But to bring in that Mediterranean feeling, I added a glaze of turquoise. Small changes made it clearer what it was becoming.

I’m calling it "Camí de Ronda".

I’ll be sharing more work and processes behind it here — feel free to follow if you’d like to see what comes next.

-----------

Aquest quadre va començar de manera senzilla — volia fer servir colors de primavera. Cap lloc concret al cap, només verds i blaus suaus, i alguns liles.
Després vam anar a Cadaqués.

Caminant entre Cadaqués i Portlligat, vam passar per davant de la casa de Dalí i vam seguir la costa. Va ser llavors quan vaig adonar-me que el quadre que havia començat ja s’estava convertint en la Costa Brava.

Aquelles flors liles que havia pintat abans? N’hi havia de molt semblants per tot el penya-segat.

Al principi, l’aigua era més grisa. Però per donar-li aquest to més mediterrani, hi vaig afegir una veladura de turquesa. Amb petits canvis, es va anar aclarint el que estava pintant.

L’he titulat "Camí de Ronda".

Aniré compartint més treballs i el procés que hi ha darrere — si et ve de gust veure el que ve després, em pots seguir.

Got birds in your head? Me too.
And thank god — they’re what keep me going when things get tough.
This one’s for the slow dreamers, the chaotic creatives, the ones who keep showing up.
Tag someone with birds in their head and remind them to let them fly.

-----

Tens pardals al cap? Jo també.
I sort d’ells, perquè sense, potser ja hauria tirat la tovallola.
Aquest vídeo és per totes les ànimes creatives que somnien en gran, van lentes però no s’aturen.
Etiqueta algú que també tingui pardals i no tingui por de donar-los ales.

Tag someone with birds in their head and remind them to let them fly.

Tens pardals al cap? Jo també.
I sort d’ells, perquè sense, potser ja hauria tirat la tovallola.
Aquest vídeo és per totes les ànimes creatives que somnien en gran, van lentes però no s’aturen.
Etiqueta algú que també tingui pardals i no tingui por de donar-los ales.

Trying to be an artist in 2025 feels like painting while balancing on a moving treadmill.
(And if you know me, you know that’s... not my strong suit 😅)

You’re expected to create beautiful things and package them into perfect posts.
To build a business and make it look effortless.
To keep creating—even when the numbers don’t move.

Being an artist today means wearing every hat:
Creator, marketer, accountant, dreamer.
And still finding time (and heart) to make something from nothing.

But we keep showing up.
Because we love it.
Because want it.
Because we dream of it.

So if you can’t buy art, share it.
If you can’t share, send a kind message.
It really, truly helps more than you know.

Supporting artists looks like encouragement, reposts, community.

We’re doing our best with what we’ve got.

Intentar ser artista al 2025 és com pintar mentre camines damunt d’una cinta de córrer (i si em coneixes, ja saps que l’equilibri no és el meu fort 😅)

Has de crear coses boniques i les has de cobrir amb publicacions perfectes.
Has de construir el teu negoci, que sigui exitós i que sembli fàcil. Que segueixis creant, fins i tot quan els números no es mouen.

Ser artista avui vol dir portar molts barrets: creadora, venedora, comptable, somiadora.

I encara trobar temps (i ànima) per pintar.

Però continuem apareixent.
Perquè ho ens encanta.
Perquè ho volem.
Perquè somiem amb aconseguir-ho.

Si no pots comprar art, comparteix-lo.
Si no el pots compartir, comenta alguna cosa encoratjadora.

De veritat, significa molt més del que sembla.

🎨 Donar suport als artistes vol dir animar, compartir, fer comunitat.

Estem fent el millor que podem amb el que tenim.

Tell me this doesn't scream SPRING!

This sunny day called for spring colors — the kind that feel alive, joyful, and full of possibility.

I've been looking for a lanscape that gives me that quiet feeling that everything is waking up again.

This piece is for anyone who needs an escape (for a minute).
A window into spring..

Want art that lifts your mood every single day?
Follow along — and let’s fill your space with joy.

------------------------------

Digues que això no crida PRIMAVERA!

Aquest dia de solet demanava a crits colors de primavera — d’aquells que se senten vius, alegres i plens de possibilitats.

Busco un paisatge que em dongui aquella sensació tranquil·la que tot s’està despertant.

Aquesta peça és per a qui necessiti escapar per una estoneta.
Una finestra a la primavera.

Vols art que et posi de bon humor cada dia?
Segueix-me — i omplim el teu espai d’alegria

Last week in pictures: a little bit of art, a little bit of life.
From painting under the sun, celebrating grandma, laughing at AI cute images, dreaming of that tiny Icelandic house… and yes, that secret painting I still can’t talk about
Stay tuned!

If I had to pick a favorite portrait… oof, way too hard. Maybe I can narrow it down to a top 3? "Quiet in Color," "In the Stillness," and "Golden Resilience" (that one might be my favorite!). Totally subjective, of course—everyone sees things differently. This video was such a fun little experiment while I was killing time on the bus, playing around with new CapCut features!

Today, I’ve been working some color therapy.

Today isn’t as sunny as the other days, and I’m really missing the warmth… so I finished this little piece I’ve been working on in between moments—during breaks or while waiting for layers to dry. It’s a tiny Icelandic house in a super colorful, flowery landscape, and I’m loving it so much! Every brushstroke with these vibrant tones gives me a little thrill.

Avui, he fet una mica de teràpia amb colors.

Avui no fa tant sol com els altres dies, i trobo a faltar l'escalforeta… així que he acabat aquesta petita peça que he havia anat fent a estones—entre pauses o mentre s’assecaven altres capes. És una caseta islandesa enmig d’un paisatge ple de flors i colors vius, i me n’he enamorat!

When I paint outdoors, there’s always an unexpected element. The natural light changes everything—the colors become brighter, and the sun often makes it hard to see my reference images on my phone or tablet. That’s why these first layers are painted more from memory and feeling than from observation.

I’m revisiting Tofino, a coastal town that has a special place in my heart. I first visited while studying in Victoria, BC, Canada, and it’s a place that continues to inspire me. Wrapped in mist, with towering trees and a calm, peaceful atmosphere, Tofino feels like another world (or in one of the Twilight movies).

I’ve found a way to incorporate Catalan into my posts without straining my eyes. I didn’t want to exclude my mother tongue, so I worked on learning to use CapCut more effectively to connect with a wider audience without leaving behind my roots.

Stay tuned to see how this piece evolves!

Quan pinto a l’exterior, sempre hi ha un element inesperat. La llum natural canvia tot—els colors es tornen més brillants, i sovint el sol fa difícil veure les imatges de referència al meu mòbil o tablet. Per això, aquestes primeres capes les pinto més des de la memòria i els sentiments que des del que veig.

Torno a pintar Tofino, un poble costaner que té un lloc especial al meu cor. Vaig estar-hi quan estudiava a Victoria, BC, Canadà, i és un lloc que segueix inspirant-me. Envoltat de boira, amb arbres gegants i una calma serena, Tofino em fa sentir com si fos un altre món (o en una de les pelis de Crepúsculo).

He trobat una manera d’incorporar el català a les meves publicacions, sense que em faci mal als ulls. No volia deixar de compartir la meva llengua materna, així que vaig aprendre a utilitzar millor CapCut per poder comunicar-me amb el públic més ampli, sense oblidar les meves arrels.

Mantingueu-vos atents per veure com evoluciona la peça!

Lately, I’ve been rewatching Anne with an E, and wow… I love it even more every time.

This time, it really hit me: When did we stop doing things just because they make us happy?

Anne sees beauty in everything. She speaks her mind. She creates just for the joy of it. And honestly? I miss that.

So I’m trying to bring that part of me back—letting myself create without overthinking, just because it feels good.

Try it with me? Pick up a brush, a pen, go outside, or just notice something beautiful. Do something that fills you up.

👉 Share this with someone who needs a push to get out of “what they’re supposed to be” and back into what actually makes them feel alive.

Hi! I'm Mireia, an artist from Sant Cugat, Barcelona. I've always loved creating—painting, writing, singing—but I actually reconnected with painting after my first surgery. My right hand wasn’t working properly, so I challenged myself to draw every day to recover. But it wasn’t until my second surgery that I really took art seriously. Now, I paint a lot, and my dream is to live from my art.

Difficult experiences make you realize what you truly love and what you just do out of habit.

If you’d like to follow my journey, stick around. Let’s create something beautiful together!

PS1: sorry for my accent 😄
PS2: I know my wires are a mess...😅

This painting is taking shape with a Mediterranean color palette . I chose these tones because they remind me of someone who embodies the spirit of the Mediterranean. Can’t wait to share the final piece, but for now, here’s a glimpse into the process.

Stay tuned for something special!

Yesterday I showed how this blank canvas transformed into a textured landscape, raw and full of movement. But now, it needs a name…

Any ideas? Drop your title suggestions below ⬇️

Also, I couldn’t resist—I love @el_mueble and I had to place my latest artwork in some of the dreamy homes I adore. I’ve been thinking a lot about my ideal collector, where she lives, what she loves… and maybe the answer is simple: she dreams of the same things I do.

What do you think—do you see this piece in a space like this? Let’s chat in the comments.

Therapy is great, but sometimes the best way to process is with paint. It’s not always a fix, but it sure is a damn good escape. Sometimes you just need to turn the chaos inside into something beautiful. Art is not just art, is a way of expression.

What is art for you? Let’s talk about it below.

What is art for you? Let’s talk about it below.

There’s more to a painting than just the final piece. The setup, the palette, the raw energy of the process—it all becomes part of the artwork you see.

I once heard that creating content is just another part of creating art. But beyond what’s captured, there are the quiet (and not-so-quiet) moments—like the brush scraping against the canvas, colors blending in real time, and yes, my (very) questionable singing attempts.

When you collect a painting, you collect more than an image—you collect the process, the story, and the energy behind it. What draws you most to a piece—the way it looks or the story it tells?

Welcome Spring!

It's rainy today (and always lately, but I'm not complaining) and I’m already thinking about how everything will be so green and colorful soon! Spring brings GAME ON : fresh, vibrant colors like soft greens, warm yellows, and pops of peachy flowers. Can’t wait to see all of it come alive in my work!

For now, I’ll enjoy the studio with my coffee and the coffee mug my grandma made me while I splash of color the canvas.

What’s your favorite color when you think of spring? Let me know in the comments!

My art is not just about what you see—it’s about what you feel, and also, of course, what I feel when creating it! I am all about setting up my "new" studio this week, and setting it up is more than organizing; it’s about creating an environment that inspires me to create. I finally moved in my fragrance oils from the living room, and I’m in love with this collection I got from @centre.yashana. Each scent is inspired by a zodiac sign, and I love this kind of things. Of course, I had to have Leo—my sign—but I also tested Cancer, Carlos’ sign, and now I can’t decide which one I like better!

Do you connect scents with creativity? What smells inspire you the most?

Spent last Sunday making the most of my art studio space. It was super important for me to keep Carlos’ desk in the same room—I love having him working beside me. We didn’t spend a single euro on this "renovation" since everything was made from leftover wood from past projects, and we’re so happy with how it turned out. Even little Sardi is loving the new setup. Also, I don't know how to make it to not have those shoes on when recording...

How do you like the resulting space?

My favorite painting jeans are the perfect tool for tracking the color palettes I’ve been using lately.

Yesterday, I spent the whole morning just exploring colors and selecting the ones I was really drawn to, organizing them into groups. When I look at them, I see earthy tones and pastel shades that make me think of nature, spring, childhood, and innocence. They might (most probably) be the ones I work with next. If these hues resonate with you, stay tuned — they could soon be part of a piece you’ll want to add to your collection!

Experimentation > Creative Block

I've been in a creative block lately—at least this past week. Instead of stopping altogether, I decided to use it to my advantage. I've had my eye on a course by @victoriarosepark for a while, and after seeing her paint in Tofino the other day (so inspiring!), I finally decided to dive in. I love how she works and everything she teaches, so why not give it a try?

Whether you're self-taught or not, there's so much to learn by observing others—taking what resonates and leaving the rest behind. Here's to pushing through blocks and staying curious.

PS: I moved my chaos to the kitchen table today. Sorry @carlosjo21

Watching @victoriarosepark share her experience in Tofino felt like looking at a dream I’m working toward. The energy, the place, the peacefulness... If I could choose, this is the world I want to create from.

Tofino has been a part of me since I visited 10 years ago, and the magic of that place keeps showing up in my work.

Victoria's last reel and stories have reminded me that dreams are meant to be chased.

Can’t wait to share more as I bring this dream into my art. Stick around for the next chapter.

From Soft Pastels to Oils—How This Painting Came to Life

It all started with a Pinterest scroll and a spark of inspiration. But from there? Layers. Soft pastels to sketch the idea, inks and spray paint to keep it loose, modeling paste for texture, and finally—oils to bring that soft, luminous glow.

Every material adds something unique, and "Soft Moorland" is ready to find its home.

Does it speak to you? DM me—I’d love to chat.

I used to let Chat GPT name my paintings... BIG MISTAKE

After a while… everything started sounding the same. Too cliché, too polished, too boring.

Now? I do things differently. I dive into music, literature, movies, even my own messy writings to find names that actually feel like something. (Okay, ChatGPT still helps me when I need to polish...).

And here’s where you come in:

I’m stuck naming my latest landscape. For some reason, "Wuthering Heights" popped into my head—but not the tragic, stormy Brontë version. Mine is all light and color, with this grand, sweeping energy... but I need your ideas.

I Thought Landscapes Were Too Rigid... Until Now

I used to see landscapes as too structured, too fixed. But once I started painting them, I realized they’re anything but rigid... they’re full of freedom.

Blending abstract textures with bold colors lets me explore without limits. And honestly? I’ve missed traveling. Painting these landscapes feels like a way to reconnect with that part of myself.

What does this color palette make you feel? Is this a sunset or a sunrise?

Timeless art

There's something timeless about the rhythm of the sea. "Waves" is about those in-between moments—where the ocean is always moving, but somehow, everything feels calm.

With layers of earthy textures, deep greens, and fluid blues, this piece captures that feeling when water meets land—a mix of energy and stillness.

I named this painting after the song "Waves" by Canyon City, that I love and I listen to all the time.

It’s the kind of piece that fits in spaces where every detail matters, but nothing tries too hard.

Where do you see it hanging? I’m curious.

CAT: Intent de buidar l’estudi!

Estic fent una neteja d’estudi per fer espai a nous projectes!

El Carlos i jo hem tingut un matí mogudet buidant una exposició on tenia forces pintures i fent lloc per desar-les.

Encara tinc més obres, no només les de dalt! Si alguna de les peces que he compartit abans t’interessa, no dubtis en preguntar-me per DM. Estaré encantada de parlar-ne! 💬

ENG: Studio clean-up in progress!

I’m clearing out my studio to make space for new projects!

Carlos and I had a busy morning taking down the exhibition and making space to keep them.

I have some more pieces that are not in this post! If any of the ones I’ve posted earlier speak to you, don’t hesitate to DM me. I’d be happy to chat about them! 💬

First expressive steps painting a landscape

When I begin a landscape, I draw directly on the canvas, no separate sketches, and while I always have a reference, I’m not aiming for precision. I go after the mood, the colors and movement the scene evokes.

It’s a bit different from how I approach portraits. For those, I often use a grid or projector to get the details right, and then I bring in Posca markers for a splash of expressive color. (Maybe next time I start a portrait, I’ll share that process—if I remember...).

Do you prefer the fluidity of landscapes or the detail of portraits? Let me know in the comments!

Look, I’m not the kind of person who follows every home decor trend… but this year, they got SO right these interior design 2025 trends!

Minimalism is nice, but maximalism is FUN! Mixing colors, styles, emotions… A home should be full of life, not look like a dentist’s office. This year, say goodbye to dull tones! Bold, vibrant colors are in! And honestly… life looks better this way.

I also have a little obsession with earthy and green tones… They make you feel connected to nature, bring a sense of calm, and look absolutely stunning in any space.

And then there’s retro & vintage… call it what you want, but the charm of the past always comes back. A piece of art can bring that elegant, nostalgic touch to any room.

Oh, and this is where my family knows me well! My parents, my sister, and my boyfriend will TOTALLY understand why these bright, colorful decor trends are a big thumbs-up for me!

Of course, art is timeless and goes way beyond trends, but I love seeing how my work fits into these vibrant styles!

Which trend are you loving the most? Tell me in the comments! 👇
