Hi my sweet friends!
Oh, what an exciting day it is!
As always in this time of the year, we are facing the changes on Finnabair Creative Team - and it is a truly bittersweet time as we need to say goodbye to some crazy talented, beautiful creative souls to make the space to welcome new, inspiring people who are joining us for the next term.
Before we will do the official announcement I'd like to take a moment here to send my huge thanks to my Creative Team and Team Coordinator for all they do for Finnabair Brand and for me as a person as well.
As I said many times before I feel so blessed I'm surrounded with so generous, open-hearted, talented people who are ready to stand by my side and spread the love for art. I appreciate each project, tutorial, video, comment - it is all making the magic happen and turning one-person's dream into a dream of so many...and with each post, piece of art or simply nice, friendly comment we can make a huge difference and turn this dream into reality. Thank you so much for making it all possible.
I can't express how important it is for me - thank you!
I know it may be a surprise for some of you there was no Team Call this year. There are few reasons behind this decision, but one of the most important reasons was, we wanted to show our appreciation and support to the artists who were supporting the brand through the whole year, inspiring us with the most beautiful projects based on my products, with great tutorials and helping to build the brand visibility. I think you will agree, these creative souls are an excellent choice and I'm sure they will rock their Team position in the coming term!
Please give huge welcome to the new Finnabair Creative Team!

I come from a small European country Slovenia, where I live with my husband and three wonderful children. It's a beautiful place to live in. We have gorgeous nature, endless forests, beautiful lakes, breathtaking mountains and a bit of a sea too. And we have word "love" in our name. :)
2. Always on my work table:
I'm one of those with big table and a square inch of space to work on. :D So there is a lot of the things on my work table. I'm now learning to clean after each project I make. :) But I have on my table all the things I'm regularly using: my brushes, basic supplies (gesso, texture pastes, gel medium,), paints, art stones,...
3. Favorite color palette:
Turquoise and blues with brown and gold and I also love to create with greens in combination with brown and gold
4. Favorite creations:
Definatelly altered art. I love to take old treasures and repurpose them, give them another life. I'm also enchanted over assemblage art. But when I want to "relax" I play with canvases, small boxes, tags and art journal pages.
5. I am inspired by:
Everyday life around me, by nature most often and also by books, by movies,...
6. When I see a blank page/canvas:
My mind starts to brainstorming how I can take that canvas "out of the box". I love everything that is different, unusual, special, so I'm always excited over ideas that I feel take things to another level.
7. Cats or dogs?
Cats! I love cats! But I also love dogs! They are just perfect! Their love is so pure and unconditional!
8. Tea or coffee?
Coffee!
9. Simple or messy?
The messier the merrier! :)
10. I'm dreaming about:
World of honest love. My family being happy and healthy. Having our own house with a big, spacious and bright art studio.
1. From? I’m from Poland
2. Always on my work table: Everything I love to work with the most;)) Favorite media and products without which I can’t imagine creating
3. Favorite color palette: Definitely a natural color palette and all shades of brown.

5. I am inspired by: I’m inspired by what surrounds me, certain images always stay in my head.
6. When I see a blank page, I usually feel like creating something on it;))
7. Cats or dogs? Cats, I have a wonderful British kitten myself, but I also like dogs.
8. Tea or coffee? Coffee! Sometimes it puts me on my feet, but I like its taste and smell – necessarily with milk.
9. Simple or messy? Hmmm… it’s hard to say. I’m trying for simplicity but it comes out as usual.
10. I'm dreaming about: For peace of mind, health and love. To this the possibility of creating gives full happiness.
1. From? I live in Nevada, United States
2. Always on my work table:The mess from my last few projects.
3. Favorite color palette: I love a few different colors Blues, purples and a good rusty look.
4. Favorites creations: This one is hard because I take pride in everything I create. I think maybe whatever my latest project is would be my favorite at the moment.
5. I am inspired by: Everything. I know that sounds cliche but it's true. I was inspired by some cardboard recently and created a layout. I am often inspired by a product or a photo of my kids. I find inspiration in nature and of course from all of my talented creative friends.
6. When I see a blank page,
7. Cats or dogs? We have a cat but I am more of a dog person

1. From? I live in the north in the Republic of Sakha. I love our snowy town Yakutsk and friendly and kind people who live here. In Yakutia there is really beautiful nature: the Lena Pillars, the Bulus, the Lena River and I really love all these places and as often as possible I leave the city for our summer home.
2. Always on my work table: On the table I always have brushes and tools, a box with my favorite stamps and boxes with paints and pastes. And when I'm not creating, then there is always a cat also lying on my table. :)
3. Favorite color palette: I really like different shades of blue, purple and brown with green.
4. Favorite creations: I feel the most comfortable with layouts and canvases. But I like to leave this comfort zone and often try out new things for myself.
5. I am inspired by: Music, books, beautiful images in the movies or in photographs. Nature and people.
6. When I see a blank page/canvas: This is my favorite moment! When you look at beautiful paper or the texture of the canvas I like to think how to convey the mood, which method I can use and what kind of new material to try.
