🎄 Merry Christmas 🎄

Sharing this older watercolour of mine from a few years back — a cosy interior scene that still feels very fitting for this time of year.

As always, thank you to everyone who supports ipaint4hope. Through art sales, this project helps raise funds for Cancer Research UK and Relay For Life Colchester, and I’m incredibly grateful for all the kindness and generosity that makes that possible.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a happy, healthy and hopeful New Year ✨

Irena 💛🎨
