A kinda washed up legendary painter has his spark reignited when he meets a young artist friend and his girlfriend. This movie had a beautiful feel to it - from its location in Provence France, to its focus on the act of painting and sketching and the relationship between the artist and his muse (and everyone related). There were minutes where the camera focused on the artist as he scratched away on his notepad sketching what he may soon paint, or quickly but masterfully slashing his brush across the giant canvas. I loved attention to detail on the small things — the focus on the process.

I absolutely love this illustrator/writer/artist and all of her work. The Moomins are such wonderful, caring little critters that just make you feel a little better inside and out. Great for kids and adult alike and beautifully rendered work beloved internationally.
I recommend getting the Moomins comic books online from Drawn and Quarterly and you can find full episodes of the 70s animated series on youtube. There is also stop motion animated series but it is no longer on youtube and I'm not sure where to find it.
I also highly recommend her novel, "The Summer Book"
Tove Jansson is really just an incredible artist with a unique voice who put genuine care and play and love into everything she made <3

Love when I'm on a hike and I find the perfect little spot by the water to take a break, eat a sandwich, do some journaling and dip the toes. Heaven on Earth :)
