 Today's artist spotlight is on Leen Christens, of Belgium.  Leen is a Kindergarten teacher whose sensitive watercolors largely feature animals with a touch of whimsy.  I love her fresh handling of both watercolor and ink line.  Although self-taught and dedicated to her career, Leen actively pursues her passion of writing and illustrating.

I admire her creative spirit and loose illustrative style.  Leen is also a Watercolor Wednesdays contributor.

Len is on hiatus, but we hope to see her work back on Etsy and at her blog in the near future.
