My shop is open and updated with a lot of botanical treasures!

In this blogpost you can already have a little peek!

So feel free to pop in and take a look in my botanical wonderland and maybe you'll find a perfect gift for your loved ones (or for yourself!).

For me, November is a month of stillness and reflection. Especially in this digital world full of hustle and never-ending noise. Maybe you feel the same and also long for a quieter world.

In this blogpost you can read more about my thoughts on this topic, accompanied by photos of an enchanting and glittering world.

In the recent autumn issue of Ariadne at Home you can read about the porcelain creations of ceramicist Nausika Raes.

September... often described as a "hinge month', a gentle turning point between the openness of summer and the grounding rhythms of autumn.

A month which allows us to take a moment to realign our days , to reset and embrace a gentler rhythm.

Cornwall ... for me it's definitely a mysterious kingdom with Celtic roots and folklore, fairylike woods and ancient walls, hidden coves and dramatic coastlines. It is rich in natural resources such as granite from which china clay is mined.

In this blogpost you'll get a glimpse of my new creations inspired by my artist in residence in Cornwall.

It's summer and time to enjoy some day trips. There's particularly one day out I would love to share with you! So I hope you will accompany me to Antwerp, a famous port city in Belgium with amazing architecture and a hidden library.

I'd like to take you with me on a journey in a beautiful and authentic part of the UK which I will always hold close to my heart. I've had a wonderful and very inspiring time last May in Cornwall during my artist in residency. This opportunity was part of the prize for New Ceramics I've won in Oldenburg in 2023.

As an artist, it was a most precious gift to have the space to slow down and to be creatively refreshed and inspired. Time to wander in the Cornish nature and to discover the history of mining English porcelain.

The garden in June is a colourful palette of different shades of green, mauves, pinks and whites. I wish I could capture its beauty for ever. But there's this never ending cycle of growth and decay.

However, there's a simple way to treasure the garden's beauty a little while longer... by making an herbarium.

It's an act of love to carefully pick a flower and press between the pages of a book. That's what this blogpost is all about!

I recently read a book about old herbaria and came across some of the pages of Emily Dickinson's herbarium. I was fascinated by it and created a one-of-a-kind porcelain collection inspired by her pressed flower in this 150 years old herbarium.

My journey trough the South of England (part I) where I visited Canterbury, Rye and Oxford.

The past months I've been working on new pieces for the upcoming market season.

In this blogpost I like to share some glimpses of what I've been working on and what you can expect at the ceramic markets in 2025.

There will be a new collection of porcelain notebooks, labels and stationery.

As well as new botanical treasures inspired by the herbarium of Emily Dickinson.

I’m a high-sensitive person and maybe you're too. Perhaps you're wondering how this affects my life and what it looks like to be a sensitive artist. Or maybe you're sometimes struggling too with this sense of feeling differently in how to perceive the world with all its stimulus.

In this blogpost I'd like to share about how it and how we can embrace this gift it in our daily life.

In this blogpost I'll share an overview of all the ceramic events I will attend in 2025. There are several new places I will go to; Potfest in the UK, Diessen am Ammersee in Germany and Claydays in Gras to name a few.

I'm really looking forward to this new season and to meeting you somewhere in Europe!

For me, this past winter has been a season where I took the time to rest and did things slowly. And it was also a period of reflection, introspection and hibernation. For quite some time now, I'm struggling with Instagram. After much thought and consideration, I finally decided to quit. In this blogpost I'd like to explain you the reasons why.

Today’s blogpost is all about weaving a soft and snowy tapestry of words, stories, poetry and the heart of winter.
