I'm inspired to capture the beauty and wonder of nature, whilst at the same time trying to do what I can to protect it. Both art and being outdoors in nature give me the chance to escape the everyday stresses of life. Channeling my energies into being creative gives me mindful moments that keep me grounded.<\/p><p>It started with a humble Instagram page. A friend suggested one of my designs would make a great T-shirt, so I gave it a go and now I've got the bug! It has to be as ethical and responsible as possible though. I'm very conscious that I don't want to create a massive clothing waste mountain. That's where this partnership with Teemill has given me the chance to create a clothing range, offering 'print to order' products, that minimise waste and harm to our natural environment.<\/p><p>Sustainability, clean energy and recycling are so important to me and this range allows you to own something beautiful that's recyclable once you've finished with it. Once you're done with your purchase, don't send it to landfill, you can return it to Teemill to be remade. You can earn store credit by recycling too - how great is that!<\/p><p>I really hope you enjoy my designs as much as I enjoyed creating them. This is the beginning of what I hope will become a growing collection. I've got another lino print on the go, so there'll be something else new to share soon!<\/p><p>Stay creative, stay kind.<\/p><p>Rachel<\/p><p><br \/><\/p>","urlTitle":"how-are-we-here","url":"\/blog\/how-are-we-here\/","editListUrl":"\/my-blogs","editUrl":"\/my-blogs\/edit\/how-are-we-here\/","fullUrl":"https:\/\/somewhere-in-my-art.teemill.com\/blog\/how-are-we-here\/","featured":false,"published":true,"showOnSitemap":true,"hidden":false,"visibility":null,"createdAt":1656094299,"updatedAt":1656107374,"publishedAt":1656107374,"lastReadAt":null,"division":{"id":226424,"name":"Somewhere in my art"},"tags":[],"metaImage":{"original":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/m3ba9fgqjc9md6hhin5b0vzyb9dn9x4m0tbzulzksz17i2nz.jpeg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/m3ba9fgqjc9md6hhin5b0vzyb9dn9x4m0tbzulzksz17i2nz.jpeg.jpg?w=1140&h=855","banner":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/m3ba9fgqjc9md6hhin5b0vzyb9dn9x4m0tbzulzksz17i2nz.jpeg.jpg?w=1920&h=1440"},"metaTitle":"","metaDescription":"","series":[],"similarReads":[{"id":19439,"title":"What makes us sustainable?","url":"\/blog\/what-is-circular-fashion\/","urlTitle":"what-is-circular-fashion","division":226424,"description":"Sustainability and the circular economy.","published":true,"metaImage":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/ohicydcdmisgkozmrqteb0rc7kzdi33yeccdg4nz1rxzppmo.jpeg.jpg?w=1140&h=855","banner":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/ohicydcdmisgkozmrqteb0rc7kzdi33yeccdg4nz1rxzppmo.jpeg.jpg?w=1920&h=1440"},"hidden":0},{"id":19736,"title":"Thank you","url":"\/blog\/thank-you\/","urlTitle":"thank-you","division":226424,"description":"It's been just over a month since I opened the 'Somewhere in my art' store and what a month it's been!
