Here's my original write-up for some of the contents in the package.....
============================
When someone inspires you, you should let them know. And sometimes, when that certain someone lives far, far, away, and you can't thank them in person, you can leave a nice comment on their blog or photostream, support their work by telling others, maybe buy their merch, perhaps give a "virtual tip", or even send a pleasant email/letter/package.
It can be anything. A small, simple gesture to show your appreciation and support.
After all, you can't take inspiration for granted, can you?
So! This post is my token of thanks to Sandra Juto - someone who has inspired me for a long time.
Through the years, she's introduced me to the wonderful world of her artwork, Wrist Worms, Buttcrack Softies, Adolf and his lovely house, Camilla (and Morran!), Elisabeth, Martin, Johan, and her favourite places to visit in various cities, but most of all in Berlin.
Here are some of Sandra's work at my apartment:
As part of a "thank you" package, I decided to paint a little doll for Sandra.
The process...
