Today I would like to introduce you to a very special lady,

who's not only an amazing artist,

but who's also become a very dear friend to me...

Ishtar Olivera

*

*

Throughout her work, Ishtar creates a vision 

of delicate sweetness and gentle optimism,

a vision that often feels like a fresh breeze 

in a world where there's ever less space for the positive side of life...

 *

I think Ishtar has a real gift 

for taking quiet, yet wildly inspiring pictures of her work... 

Oh, and did I mention Ishtar hand carves the most amazing stamps?
(the kitty you can see in the pictures above & below is my personal favourite...)

For more of this, (and so much more...),

I suggest you take a stroll around Ishtar's inspiring blog HERE

or have a peep at her online SHOP!
