Friday introduction!!!
Hi my name is Malika and I am the face behind Quills and Blooms.
I felt that this was the perfect picture to use as it shows me in my favourite setting. Just relaxing, observing and absorbing all the beautiful qualities of nature which I then channel into my art.
Here are a few facts about me:
1) I was born and raised in the Caribbean on a laidback, fun-loving island called Trinidad.
2) I am a big foodie and one of my dreams is to travel around the world trying authentic cuisine. I even briefly thought about becoming a food critic but only because I wanted free food 😆.
3) I love celebrating and learning about other people’s culture. Swipe to see some low quality pics of me at a traditional Nigerian party, Holi and Chinese New Year (I tried Chinese calligraphy that year haha)
4) Art was one of my least favourite subjects in school and I was never very good at it but I always loved using my hands to create crafts.
I made a lot of clothes pin crafts, keychains and pom pom bookmarks.
5) I have never been a sporty person. However, I really enjoyed one sport in secondary school which was dragon boat racing 🛶.
I am very appreciative of you guys and I look forward to learning and growing alongside each of you.
Can you relate to any of these? I’d love to learn some interesting facts about each of you!
