The Monthly Muse / No.6

Welcome to The Monthly Muse, a series all about mood-boards. Each month I’ll be pulling together inspiring images to create a visual composition as a creative exercise, just for fun.

June is the start of summer - salt in the air and sunlight stretching into evening. Inspired by seaside villages, heirloom tomato lunches, fish motifs, weathered blue doors, and flowers gathered in passing. A season of wandering slower and observing the quiet magic of ordinary moments.
