I Am Thankful For You!
As we go into the Thanksgiving weekend here in the States, I am thinking of all the things I am grateful for. And I am grateful for you all – those who befriended and followed me on Instagram and Facebook. Thank you SO MUCH for giving me hearts when I shared my art online, for chatting with me when I posted personal thoughts and stories, for taking my classes, and for giving me feedback and reviews where I needed them the most. You have made me feel that what I do has some meaning beyond my own heart and has value, no matter how small, in the world.
And I wanted to say thank you in a personal way and to me that meant sharing a few pieces of art that I created just for myself and the originals hang framed around my studio and home. So, I have made a VERY LIMITED QUANTITY of archival prints of my original artwork and added them to my shop.
I’m also offering 15% discount on everything in my shop including art prints, art magnets, coloring books and image collections from November 22-25, 2018. No matter how many art prints you choose, you’ll only pay $5.00 in shipping (US Domestic) or $12.00 (International Flat Rate) as long as everything is shipped to the same address.
Shop here: https://mousaha.com/shop/ for Art Prints, Image Collections/Coloring Books, and Art Magnets and use code THANKFUL at checkout.
Happy Thanksgiving! May you find a lot to be grateful for 🙂
Sweater Weather!
It’s mid-October and the temperatures have dropped to the 30 degrees Fahrenheit. Every day this week, we woke up to cloudy cold mornings, not feeling like getting out of our warm blankets. I feel like sleeping all day like this little fox from my Hello Fall coloring book. But of course, that’s not possible, so I am just making more time to make some art using the Hello Fall coloring book images. If wasn’t recovering from surgery, I’d step out more and walk on the crunchy leaves down our beautiful neighboorhood streets under the colorful trees. But for now, I’m doing what I can to enjoy my favorite season of the year!
Hello Fall: All Image Collections on SALE
Today is the first day of Autumn and it’s my favorite season! To celebrate, I am offering 15% discount on ALL my downloadable and printable coloring books/ image collections this weekend (9/22/18 – 9/23/18) only. Prices are adjusted, no code needed.
Not only that. I am also launching my newest image collection ‘Hello Fall’ TODAY!
Sweater weather, pumpkin spice flavor and glorious colors all around – that is autumn where I live and I love every bit of it. This gorgeous season inspired me to draw the colorful leaves, the pumpkin gingersnap pie scented candle, the crab apple sprigs, the squirrels that so actively gather acorns, the back-to-school supplies, fall outfits for picture day, the puffy cotton flowers, the strangely shaped gourds, the sunflowers bigger than my daughter’s head, the Halloween decorations, the wreath I made myself for Thanksgiving and many more. I put these line drawings together in a downloadable and printable collection that you can color as well as use as collage images in your art journals, mixed media art and more. You are also going to get 15 bonus pages with ideas for coloring and art journal pages. Because you can adjust the print sizes of these images, you can even use them in your planners. Print as many times as you need to embellish your personal art projects. Whatever you choose to create, these images will do the hard work for you!
This printable image collection is about all things FALL. You can instantly download the printable PDF following the completion of your payment. You can download the PDF UP TO 3 TIMES just in case the first attempt fails.
No shipping fee, no waiting for the mail.
You can print and reprint as many times as you want!
You would normally pay anywhere between $1.67 and $5 for a SINGLE printable coloring page on Etsy after scrolling for hours to find one you really like.
My goal is to make this easy and affordable for you.

New Coloring Book: At the Beach
When we lived in Florida, I didn’t think I could miss summer… ever! But when we moved north, I found cold weather for most of the year. Even though we have pretty beaches here too, the drive is longer and the water much colder. All of a sudden summer days and our trips to the beaches became a lot more precious to me.
As I washed sand off the beach toys, I felt that soon this summer too will be a thing of the past and we can only hold on to its memories. And I wanted to re-live these moments and cherish the fond memories we made. To do so, I compiled my drawings inspired by our beach vacations – things we saw, things we shopped for, things we did, and created a coloring book named At the Beach.
At the Beach is a printable coloring book of fond beach memories. It includes a fun collection of 30 hand-drawn images that bring back memories of carefree sun-soothed, surf-soaked beach vacations. Plus, there’s a bonus section of inspiration to help you bring the black-and-white pen drawings to life in full color!
In this coloring book, you’ll find cute flip flops, stylish swimsuits, the dyed woven straw beach bag with raffia fringes which we ended up not buying as it wasn’t big enough, the rose colored sun glasses I bought at St. Maarten and many more. At the Beach will surely help you re-live YOUR beach vacations and enjoy the special summer memories a while longer.
I’ll email you the printable PDF within 24 hours of purchase. No shipping fee, no waiting for the mail to step into coloring bliss!
A Coloring Tutorial Video
Hello there! It’s raining outside. Feels like the perfect day for some coloring! Here’s a coloring tutorial for you to enjoy.
The last time I posted a coloring tutorial, some of my viewers mentioned that they would prefer full length tutorials over time-lapsed ones. So, here’s the full 26 minutes of me coloring in my studio. I do hope it inspires you to pull out your coloring stash.
I used my Printable Coloring Book Farm Fresh: Printable Coloring Book of Produce from A-Z with 14 Bonus Pages of Ideas & Extras. I printed it on regular white copy paper and colored with watercolor pencils. Sometimes, I leave a page without using water to blend the colors. If you wish to watercolor, just print on thicker paper.
I’d love to hear your thoughts. I welcome your comments!
