How to get inspired and organised for 2024.
At this time of year lots of people start planning new routines to get themselves organised. Organisation is key to being successful in any business.
From years and years of being a teacher, where every second of our lesson time and indeed our free time was precious beyond belief, I have 30 years of time management and organisation skills honed to a tee.
There is a myth that creative thinkers are chaotic and disorganised… though I’ll admit that part of my need for planning and organisation has definitely stemmed from my years of being a teacher and now they are serving me well in my years of being an artist.
Over the years I’ve tried various business planners, crafty planners, arty planners, boring planners and even a “girl boss” planner (I don’t like that term, I can’t imagine my Dad who ran his own business for years, buying a “Boy boss” planner; seems bit patronising to me!) Anyway I’ve tried loads of them. And loads of them are pretty good, but they just weren’t quite right for me. It’s why I created a unique planner.
A friend suggested I re-created my personal one as a download so that everyone could have a try at my planning system. So that’s exactly what I’ve done.
The Planner’s Journey
In my quest for the perfect planner, I found myself piecing together ideas from various sources. Frustrated with the lack of a comprehensive solution, I embarked on a journey to create a monthly planner specifically designed for creative entrepreneurs.
Here’s my basic premiss:
- 1. Monthly Focus: A planner that aligns with your artistic rhythm, allowing you to review, plan, and strategise month by month.
- 2. Reflection: Dive deep into yearly reflections, celebrating your highs and acknowledging life’s pivotal moments.
- 3. Word of the Year: and word of the month. Choose a guiding word for the, inspiring and steering your creative endeavors. Words I’ve used in the past, Expansion, Space, Focus, Joy,
- 4. Marketing Mastery: Develop and execute marketing goals, with insights on crafting engaging social media content and generating unique ideas for your business.
- 5. Financial Mastery: Track your revenue, identify best sellers, and manage expenses effectively to nurture your creative enterprise.
- 6. Key Matrix: Evaluate and enhance different facets of your business with a strategic key matrix.
I first started crafting my own planner in 2018, in 2019 it helped me win the Spire FM Woman in Business award. each years it gets a little tweak getting better and better. It really works. It’s not onerous but it helps keep you on track through the year.
Over on my shop page you’ll find it. Ready for instant download, so you can review 2023, set your goals for 2024, get inspired for a great creative year in Business.
It has advice on creating your business plan and an executive summary in addition to twelve months of reviews and planning pages. Its beautiful designed in colour.
An Enchanting Experience at The New Forest Show - A Recap of Fun and Furry Friends!
Join Me in Reliving the Excitement and Heartwarming Moments at the Show.
Hey there, lovely readers! I’m back from an exhilarating three days at The New Forest Show, and boy, am I exhausted! But let me tell you, it was an absolute blast! The show brought together so many wonderful people, and I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to all of you who stopped by my stand to say hello. Your presence made the experience even more special for me.
One of the most delightful aspects of the show was meeting countless new faces who were previously unfamiliar with my work. It’s truly exciting to introduce my creations to a wider audience and see them embrace my art with enthusiasm. So, thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to visit!
Now, I have to give credit where it’s due – the real showstopper was undoubtedly Mr. Bumbles, my gorgeous merle Cockapoo. He’s such a charmer, and his furry magnetism drew so many people to the stand. It’s amazing to see how the love for adorable pets can bring us all together.
Mr Bumbles was even treated to doggy ice cream in the evening whilst in the Commoners wine bar in Brockenhurst. we’ll be returning there I can tell you!
02. Plan your workout time.
Now that I had the headphones on my head, I was finally ready to plug and play some music. I plugged the provided cable into the jack on the headphones and then the one on my iPhone Then I called up Pandora. I tend to have a very eclectic music purview and have many stations set up for different moods. The sound quality of these headphones was remarkable. There is an amazing depth of sound and incredible highs and lows that make listening to music a truly breathtaking experience.
In order to test how voices sounded, and the overall art of sound mixing, I pulled up Netflix on my iPad Air and watched a few minutes of a movie to hear all the nuances of the film. None of them were lost. In fact, I ended up hearing sounds that I hadn’t heard before. Echoes…birds chirping…wind blowing through trees…breathing of the characters…it was very impressive what the headphones ended.
Now, here’s something that filled me with both joy and surprise – my brand-new flowery animals, Titania and the spring meadow Hare sold out in a flash! Yes, they were gone by the end of the very first day! And Oberon wasn’t far behind..also a sell out. Wow! I was thrilled beyond words. Those prints will be available in the coming months, do sign up to my mailing list to be the first to know.
I must take a moment to commend the show organizers for putting together such a fantastic event. They created an environment that encouraged creativity, art appreciation, and camaraderie. A big round of applause to them!
But let’s not forget the real stars of the show – all of you who came to visit! Your excitement and appreciation for my new work were nothing short of heartwarming. Your smiles and kind words fueled my passion for art, and I can’t wait to continue creating pieces that resonate with you all.
Now, let me share a little unexpected adventure that added a touch of excitement to the already bustling show. At lunchtime, daring parachutists dropped in from the sky, thrilling both visitors and exhibitors alike. It was an exhilarating moment that brought everyone together, proving that The New Forest Show is not just about art but also about the joy of shared experiences.
This year, I had the pleasure of being a sponsor for the first time, and what a joy it was! The sponsors’ pavilion offered a spot of English sparkling wine that added a touch of elegance to the entire event. Though I only had a chance to visit the pavilion on one of the days, it was a moment of respite and celebration amidst the busy schedule. I’m delighted to announce that I’ll be sponsoring again next year, ensuring that the enchanting spirit of The New Forest Show continues to thrive.
A special shoutout to my fellow traders and neighbors during the show! You made the experience even more enjoyable with your positivity and camaraderie. It’s always a pleasure to be surrounded by like-minded people who share the same love for creativity.
All in all, The New Forest Show was an action-packed, fun-filled extravaganza that left me with a heart full of gratitude and joy. I’m already looking forward to next year’s event, where we can create more memories, share more art, and connect over the things that bring us together.
To all of you who couldn’t make it or who want to relive the magic, head over to my shop and grab your favourite prints before they disappear!
Thank you again for being a part of this incredible journey with me. Your support means the world, and I’m excited to continue bringing whimsy and joy into your lives through my art.
Until next time, stay inspired, keep smiling, and surround yourself with the things that make your heart sing!
With love and creativity,

How to take risks; I'm mixing it up.
Every single business book I have read has talked about risk-taking. Encouraging future entrepreneurs to take the leap and to commit yourself to the glory that lies ahead!
And every art book kind of does the same thing…
As an artist we carefully learn about colour and composition, we study the masters, we perfect our craft then you read a book and it says chuck all that knowledge out the window and take risk. It’s mind boggling.
Anthony Robbins suggests “If you want to take the island; you’ve got to burn the boats”
The thing is, contrary to popular belief about artists, I’m square. I’m really square.
I pay my taxes on time, I’ve never been able to cope with a red bill or a sizeable overdraft!
I don’t take risks, I’m completely risk averse, always have been.
Even as a child I never managed to climb to the tallest part of the tree – too much of a risk!
I would not burn the boats, I would carefully moor up the boats and maintain them just in case the island thing didn’t work out.
This is not considered an entrepreneurial spirit at all!
It’s not really an artistic one either.
Because most artistic books along with business books also encourage risk-taking. I think I’m a little bit better as an artistic risk taker. I paint on linen with my own secret recipe of clear gesso, I use colour in surprising ways, painting beautiful magentas and blues where only browns and greys exist. But this week I’ve had an opportunity to risk it even more.
That’s what they’re for right?
I think I’ve had a stumbling block on taking risks on my large scale work because my linen canvas are now very expensive (they’re handmade by Bird and Davies) a joy to use, they are beautiful and will last a lifetime but they don’t encourage risk taking. I have to know where I’m going when I paint no them. I love to leave the linen exposed as my background, which means the process is unforgiving too, there isn’t room for mistakes.
So I’ve been trying something a little different. I’ve been painting watercolour on canvas. The canvas is a linen poly mix and is a little cheaper than my linen counterpart, and with it being watercolour, if it all goes wrong I can gesso over it and do an oil painting on top.
Watercolour on canvas isn’t for purists, and in fact it’s much more of a mixed media piece as I include some gouche and ink too. You need to prime the canvas with specialist watercolour primer ( I use Daniel Smith).
Then off you go.
inspired by this sketch in my sketchbook carried out while on safari on the Masai Mara..”
I created this much larger work, in watercolour and ink on canvas.
It was a risk, but I’ve kind of enjoyed the immediacy of it rather than the weeks and weeks my oils take. And I think it captures something different from the oils, though I’m not sure what.
Will I do it again? Of course, because I’m learning all the time and this work, much like my sketchbooks will contribute to bigger and better pieces along the way.
If you’d like to learn more about watercolour on canvas I can heartily recommend Liz Chaderton’s book Painting watercolour on Canvas (full disclosure I know Liz from exhibiting at art fairs, she’s lovely lady and a splendid artist and teacher)

Art buyers guide for beginners. My TOP 10 Tips...
Do you fancy treating yourself to some super art, but too afraid to take the plunge? Read on for my simple guide to getting the art you want without feeling bamboozled.
Do you fancy treating yourself to some super art, but too afraid to take the plunge? Read on for my simple guide to getting the art you want without feeling bamboozled.
This week’s blog is going to give you the confidence to go and buy some great art.
Remember, try to look online for artists in your area first, then visit their studio. It’s a great way to find out what you like without pressure. If you can’t find an artist you like, in your area, the next plan is to visit a small gallery (nothing too intimidating) or go to an art fair.
Once you’ve gone to the studio/artfair or gallery- follow my top ten rules to help you select art. You should really enjoy the process of buying yourself some gorgeous new art.
02. Plan your workout time.
Now that I had the headphones on my head, I was finally ready to plug and play some music. I plugged the provided cable into the jack on the headphones and then the one on my iPhone Then I called up Pandora. I tend to have a very eclectic music purview and have many stations set up for different moods. The sound quality of these headphones was remarkable. There is an amazing depth of sound and incredible highs and lows that make listening to music a truly breathtaking experience.

None of them were lost. In fact, I ended up hearing sounds that I hadn’t heard before. Echoes…birds chirping…wind blowing through trees…breathing of the characters…it was very impressive what the headphones ended.
1. Do you love it?
2. Where is it going to go?
3. Size matters.
6. Try not to worry about investment.
7. Quality is key
Feel free to ask the artist anything about the quality of the materials they use. Find out about pigments, ask them about colourfastness. Okay so you might not be able to hang a £500 work of art in 500 years time but you certainly don’t want the colour to fade in less than 10 years. I make a point of using the best quality paints, the pigments are strong and the colour won’t fade.
8. Negotiate, but don’t be offended if you get a “no”
9. Look after your art
Well here’s the deal; in my kitchen I have a very large oil painting of Stonehenge and it hangs directly over radiator, it’s opposite the oven, it gets steam and heat and cold and sunshine on it
in the morning. Over a decade of being in the spot and it still looks like new! However if I had a work of art that I’ve spent a lot of money on, or if I had an old work of art that might be a little more fragile I would not dream of putting it over a radiator- as a rule of thumb you have to be careful with extremes of heat. But broadly speaking new art, on sturdy canvas frames, painted in oil or acrylic, can take quite a beating in terms of conditions! I even have an oil painting in my bathroom! However watercolours are significantly more fragile and definitely not be placed in a steamy room. Also be very careful about direct sunlight. Okay in our climate we’re not exactly living in Greece, the sun really isn’t so strong and it doesn’t shine for that much of the year , but sun will fade out paint incredibly rapidly if given the chance. Just think about the fading on your curtains or fabrics in a sunny room – that could happen to your painting so do be careful. If in any doubt at all ask the artist. And if you move the artwork to a new room, still feel free to email your artist years after you’ve bought it they will be happy to help – honestly we really will.
10. Don’t be scared of being a numpty!
My top ten favourite art materials
There are some brushes I always reach for no matter how many hundreds of brushes sit on my worktop. There are some colours I always reach for no matter how many hundreds of tubes of paint there are and there are some canvases that I always seem to be ordering. Read on to discover my absolute favourites.
I can buy
1. Zest-it oil paint dilutant and brush cleaner.
I started using zest-it oil paint dilutant instead of turps sometime ago. It isn’t as ‘clean’ as water, But it is a lot less harmful than turps. I discovered that when working in my studio all day every day much as I’ve grown to love the smell of turpentine(!) it was beginning to give me a headache.
It’s great to work in a well ventilated space but sometimes in Winter that simply isn’t possible, so zest it has really helped make sure that I’m free from headaches and that my lungs have a much nicer time even though I’m an oil painter.
2.Natural linen canvases. The vast majority of my work is on linen rather than a standard Canvas. I let the linen show through as the background of my painting I think it is so beautiful. I have developed my own method of priming the linen so that it is clear. You can buy clear primers off the Internet but I find that they leave a chalky residue which isn’t appropriate for me when I want the linen to show through so I have developed my own secret recipe.
I can buy smaller linen canvases “off the rack” as it were but the larger ones I have custom made for by Bird and Davies.
3. Rigger. I use lots of different sizes of rigger brush. I use the fine tip of the point of a rigour, I even use a rigger sideways. I get through riggers quite quickly so most of the time I use a synthetic rigger as they are cheaper but I have real sable brushes which I use at the end of the painting for the final finishing touches. I absolutely love these brushes.
4. In combination with my rigger I also love a good flat brush again I have a combination of sizes some synthentic, some sable. Having a flat brush to lay down quick washes of colour and to blend and mix tones is an absolute must during my painting ritual.
5.Old Holland blue-violet. I tend to use this colour more often than I use French ultramarine, the blue-violet has a lovely warmth and depth to it. I can mix it with different browns to create a very dark almost black colour. I can mix it with white to create a beautiful warm blue. I have tried to paint without blue-violet and it can’t be done I absolutely adore using this colour.
6.Brown madder. Like most artists I have plenty of burnt siena and raw umber in my box of tricks but I have added to my Browns collection with brown madder. In the same way that blue violet is a warmer deeper version of French ultramarine I found brown madder to be a warmer deeper version of burnt sienna. I love it. it has a translucency all of it’s own and it can be found in the under painting layers of most of my work.
7. Michael Harding’s Titanium white. I absolutely love Michael Hardings oil paint. It has a creamy constituency and the depth of colour on a par with Old Holland paint. I particularly enjoy using Michael Harding is Titaniam white as it seems to contain all of the blendable quality of a good zinc white, with the bright whiteness required from titanium white. It works. It works really well.
8. Old Holland Naples yellow-reddish extra. Like many artists I fell in love with Naples yellow sometime ago, it is incredible to work with when creating beautiful skies in oil, however I have added to my collection with the Naples yellow-reddish extra. This has been particularly useful in painting animals and getting lovely reflections on a cows nose, or a hare’s ear! I love this colour.
9. Michael Harding’s glaze medium. There are loads of glaze mediums out there and for many years I painted without using glaze mediums and simply used more oil and less turps to create a clear glossy finish. But since discovering Michael Harding’s glaze medium there’s been no going back. I adore it’s consistency and it enables me to put a very thin coloured glaze over the top of my paintings. A glaze medium enables a translucency simply not possible without it.
10. A painters smock. I suppose I don’t really need a real smock. I have loads of them; seriously loads. But I have gotten into the habit of being free and easy with my paint allowing splatters and dribbles in trickles to be part of the paintwork and this means I’m never going to be the kind of artist that can paint in good clothes. Painting clothes are essential for me and I have become rather attached to my painting smocks.
On my home page I state that ‘I love to paint”. My top ten help me enjoy the painting process all the more.
What is the difference between an original painting and a print?
Sometimes the quality of a print is so good, it looks like an original.
What do artists even mean by an original?
So this blog is here to help.
Don’t let the terms artists and galleries use put you off buying something you love.
Here’s my guide to help you understand exactly what you’re buying.
So I thought it was time to explain what’s what?What is a print?
A print is a reproduction or copy of an original work of art.
In my case, the printing company, or publishers, take my original oil painting and scan it. This gives them a much much higher resolution image that a photograph.
They send painting back to me and I can choose to keep it in my own collection or sell it. (more on this later).
From their high resolution scan they create sophisticated copies of the image.
The image is an accurate reproduction of the painting.So what is meant by an original?
An original painting is the painting created by the artist.
There is only one original of any image.
I can paint as many different stags as I like, but every single painting is unique.
If I paint a particular stag, and this gets turned into a print, every print will be the same, but the original is how it started. There is only one original painting, and it is unique.So this can get confusing, as what if you want to buy the original of a print you’ve seen?
There’s only one. So if it’s already sold, or not for sale then you can’t have it!
But you could commission me to create an original painting. I never copy my own work, as you have leave some space for the magic to happen, but if you want a painting, not a print, that is possible. It takes time and it costs a lot more…but that’s part of the joy of having an original painting.
No.
The signature is included in the reproduction process, so it will be on the print as well as on the originalI can see the brushstrokes, does that mean it’s the original?
No.
The reproduction process can include very sophisticated finishing gels which create a brushstroke effectSo how can I tell if what I’m about to buy is an original painting not a print?
This isn’t necessarily the case for every artist, but here are couple of things that will help and is true of my work.
1. How much is it?
My most popular print is Hugo the colourful elephant. The biggest version of Hugo as a print is 116cm square, in a frame and he retails for around £250 including the frame.
Original paintings of mine, over 100cm square are usually in excess of £1500.
My much smaller prints at say 40x40cm are usually under £50, a painting at that size would be closer to £500.
So price can be a big indicator.2. Where is it?
I supply only a handful of galleries with my original paintings, whereas my publishers supply my prints across the UK and Ireland.
If my images are in a garden centre, a department store or a furniture store, it will be a print.
Absolutely not. It’s a great way of having a striking piece of art at a fraction of the price.
My prints are beautifully produced and presented, they are highly decorative and great value for money.
If you love an image and the only way you can afford it is to have a print then go ahead and buy it and enjoy it.I’ve heard people talk about giclée prints. What are they and are they better?
Giclée is a french term from the verb gicler and literally means to squirt or splatter. So it’s just an arty term for inkjet!So if the print is so good, why do people buy original paintings which are way more expensive?
An original painting will last a lifetime.
Actually more than a lifetime.
My oil paintings, if taken care of, will outlast you and me. They can be become family heirlooms.
Some people want ‘the one an only’. So even if you have the original painting of something that exists as a print, you still have the one.
Some people are investing in art, or want their painting to have re-sale value.
Even though I love the quality of my prints, there is still something quite magical and special about original artwork.
When you buy an original painting you are part of the process; the artist has worked on the painting for weeks, even months sometimes and you are completing that very special process. You are part of the magic.
Getting the right mindset for a successful business.
I started my own art business in September 2014 after a 20 year career in teaching! I knew how to paint but I had no idea how I was going to be able to turn my passion into my full-time job and my full-time living. Now seven years on I’m happy to say I’m a successful artist and loving my life.

My podcast with Carrie Green about overcoming the ups and downs in business
Here’s a summary, written for me by the FEA of what Carrie and I covered in our interview.
Sometimes even a job you once loved is no longer the right fit. This is exactly what happened to Louise Luton, who, after 20 years of teaching art and drama, started struggling with the pressure she was facing and having to deal with crippling anxiety.
She decided she had to make a change, and despite the common misconception that you can’t make money as an artist, Louise was an artist at heart and decided she would figure out how to make it work, so she set out to build her business, Louise Luton Art.
Louise started seeing a return and her business going from strength to strength within six months. She later decided she needed to uplevel her business again and that’s when she read She Means Business and eventually joined the Members’ Club.
Saldy, the tragic loss of her father stopped her in her tracks and she went through a period where she felt she couldn’t go on growing the business. This is where Louise says the community and support she received from the members of the Members’ Club was indispensable, helping her realise that she was strong enough to keep going, step by step, growing the business and honouring her father through her art.
In this podcast, Louise and I chat about:
- Her beautiful art and how she has created multiple sources of revenue through her website, art galleries and by visiting art fairs.
- How being a successful artist means you also have to manage the business aspect. Louise shares how she managed to make it work when she first started and the important part that the Members’ Club has played in keeping her going and growing.
- The crisis of confidence and the mindset struggles she faced when she first started, being scared to approach galleries and charging too much for her art.
- The three essential aspects of her business and how she manages each one.
- The struggle she faced to continue working on her business after the loss of her father and how the support of other members from inside the Members’ Club helped her make it through.
- How she adapted the traditional business plan for her own needs and how she uses the Members’ Club monthly Goal Setting and Planning workshops to review and plan ahead.
- A recent business award she won, which has continued to increase her confidence and encourage her to grow the business further.
- Her exciting plans for the year ahead, including an inspirational trip to Kenya and being featured in galleries in major cities in the UK and US.
Louise’s top tips for success are:
- No matter what you’re facing, remember the importance of working on your business “little and often” – accept that you can’t do everything today, but you can do SOMETHING today so just keep chipping away at your idea until you get there.
- Once your business is up and running, make sure you’re reviewing your results from month to month. Identify the patterns in your own business and use them to make better decisions and create more success.
- When you’re just starting out, focus on one social media platform rather than trying to be on multiple platforms all at once.
- If you have an idea you love, the timing will never be right so you just have to take the plunge and give it a try now!
- Join a community that can give you the support you need now – you don’t have to wait until you’re on top, join when you really need the help!
