Our four day getaway to Malta was fairly unexpected as visiting the country had never been in my sights until recently. We happened to be flying to and from Munich airport because of a family wedding in Austria, so we decided to pick a place that the airport flew to, to tag on a little holiday onto our trip.
The rose city of Petra
Situated between the Red Sea and the Dead Sea and inhabited since prehistoric times, the rock-cut ‘rose city’ was the capital of the Nabatean Empire from around the 1st Century BC. During the Roman times it became a major trade centre for the incense of Arabia, the silks of China and the spices of India, a crossroads between Arabia, Egypt and Syria. Petra is half-built, half-carved into this vibrant red sandstone and is surrounded by mountains riddled with passages and gorges.

Bikes, bridges & baked goods: Amsterdam
Amsterdam is one of the most popular cities in Europe and has been on my list of travel destinations for a while. With a short 50 minute flight from London Gatwick, it seemed like a perfect mini break to squeeze into a weekend.
Artists who influence my work
Spending a lot of time finding and admiring artwork online, inspiration from digital artists plays a massive role in my own work. As a creative trying to navigate through my own artistic journey and finding a 'style' which I feel best transports the messages I want to communicate, I take influence from artists whose techniques tell the stories I also want to convey.
