Hello, I’m Dee

I’m an artist and a former Art & Graphics teacher, with 18 years of teaching behind me. These days my classroom is my kitchen table: paint, paper, far too many brushes, and a mug of coffee going cold somewhere nearby.

My vision with Artsydee has always been simple: to make art feel approachable and delightful. Whether you’re a busy mum, a budding artist, or someone looking for a creative outlet, this is your space to play.

I make printable watercolour templates, junk journal kits, colouring pages and Procreate brushes, and I share tutorials here and on YouTube. My style is loose and a little wonky on purpose, because imperfection is the charm, not the flaw. But more than techniques and tools, I believe art is about connection: with ourselves, our children, and the world around us.

I use a whole toolkit to make my resources — Procreate, Photoshop, Canva, Clip Studio Paint, other digital tools, and my own hand-painted work — but it’s all led by my own hand and eye, shaped by my style and checked by me. You can see my real paintings further down this page.

Your kind words and trust over the years have been my pillars of motivation. Together, let’s keep going on this lovely journey of creativity and self-expression.

Warmly,
Dee x

The paint under my fingernails

When I’m not making printables, you’ll usually find me at my kitchen table with a brush in my hand and paint somewhere it shouldn’t be. Here’s a little peek at my own hand-painted work — you can see plenty more over in my paintings gallery.

And not everything is on paper — this soft flower was actually made digitally in Procreate, using my own Artsydee brush set. Same hand and eye, just different tools.
