Hello new world, hello steemers, hello new friends!
My name is Laura and I am so, SO new to all of this! Is it me, or is it kind of scary to write your first post?! Okay be honest and tell me; How many times have you changed your first line?! My gosshh... well I changed it more then twice! ;)
I'm currently living in Rotterdam (the Netherlands) where I am a newbie as well! I just came back from one and a half year working and living abroad on a beautifull island; Bonaire. If you are into snorkling and/or diving then this is absolutely worth a visit, or two.. or three! Where do you live? Who loves to travel too?!
With beautiful memories in our bags we (my partner, my pomeranian dog and my orange cat) decided to go back to the Netherlands. As an artist I need to get inspiration every day to keep on creating. Things like; fashion, people, magazines, artmuseum, visiting galleries, living in a city, architecture etc. Living on an island made me feel free but at the same time it also blocked my creatingflow. Why? This probably sounds silly but I couldn't get inspiration out of palmtrees, white beaches and sun allday! Yeah, I know it wasn't what I was expecting neither ;) I thought it WOULD inspire me, but the opposite happend..
Well the good news is that since I'm in a new environment I started to create art again! And why not share it with others?! why not share it with new friends, yes I guess you know what is comming next.. Why not share it with you my lovely new steemit friend who made it till the end of my first post! :D
By that you also know what to expect on my blog; ART from the heart. And pieces of me, my partner, my pomeranian dog and orange cat.
XOXO, Laura
Ps. All feedback, replies, new friends, followers and ofcourse upvotes are more then welcome!
Just now found your post - Still able to upvote and resteem you for some publicity though ;) Love the Netherlands by the way - especially that so many people are riding bicycles in Amsterdam - Even though that was dangerous :D

Hi @welcoming! Thanks for resteeming ❤️! Yess that’s normal here! And the most easiest and cheapest way to get yourself from A to B. And yess true that sometimes a bit dangerous! But when the sun is out iT is so lovely to be on your bike and cycle around the city and all the Nice Parks! Enjoy every moment! Where are you from?

Hey Laura! I have to admit I'm in awe for someone to move abroad to pursue their dreams and it's very admirable. Never easy and at times, terrifying. I'd love to check out your art and will be following you :) Keep posting and I'll be waiting for your art pieces! Rock on.
P.S. If you do have the time, do check out my blog and see if it's what you like too. Best of luck Laura!

HEY! Welkom hier! Ik kom ook uit Rotterdam en ben actief in de art-scene hier, onder andere met beeldmakerscollectief beeldkanon - samen met fotografen en illustratoren 'becommentariëren' we Rotterdam en maken we exposities (laatste was in de Schouwburg) :-) Tof om nog een kunstenaar hier te vinden!
Thanks voor de mention @ashleykalila :-)

Welkom Laura! Leuk om nog een Nederlander tegen te komen :-)
Cool art! Coming back from Bonaire must have been quite the shock. It is far too cold here and people are living totally different lives. Quick and hasty.
What do you notice to be the two biggest changes being back here?

Hi @cryptotem! Jazeker! Waar in NL ben jij aan het steemenn?!
Tanks a lot for your compliment about my art! Appreciate it a lot! And yess.. that was a bit of a shock ;) It was freezing over here! Fast Life Vs. Slow life...
But I'm glad to be back and go get my goals and jump into the steemitbizz! And of course create much more Art then I did on the Island LOL.
two biggest changes:
okay I'll do three :P
have you ever been on Bonaire?

I've never been on Bonaire, not on any of the ABC islands actually. They are on my travel list though!
