Read A Book Day

Read A Book Day Mangomini

Happy National Read A Book Day! I love to read. At the moment I’m reading To The Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf and No Impact Man by Colin Beavan. My favourite places to read are on my balcony or in bed. What are you reading and what are your favourite reading places?

These “booklover” postcards are available in my Etsy shop.

Meet the Artist, Illustrated.

Meet the Illustrator, In Drawings, Of Course!

This is my illustrated version of “Meet the Artist”. I don’t share a lot of personal stuff on social media, but this is a way to get to know a little bit more about me. As you can see I love tea (drink it all day, everyday), books, plants, thrift store shopping, making lists and plans, using my favourite art supplies, patchouli perfume and I drink rosé wine even in winter. I don’t like phone calls (I never answer because I panic!) and I hate it when I accidentally mistake my paint-water for my tea…..yuck!

Book: Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.

Winter Break

2016 Fuerteventura - Cindy Mangomini

Here’s a second (and final) illustration about my sunny winter getaway to Fuerteventura, before I go back to winter. I had such a good time there: the weather! the people! the yoga! the food! the cocktails!! I wish I could go back there right now, because it’s just too cold here!
