Coloring Italy with Liselotte Watkins

Collages and Colors

There are a lot of reasons I have to thank Instagram, but by far my favorite is my discovery of Liselotte Watkins, artist, illustrator, all-around cool woman. I can’t remember the rabbit hole I went down, but one afternoon I found myself inside the World of Watkins – collages, interiors, drawings, slightly off-tint colors, burnt out photos, vintage finds and original art. There was something about her feed that reminded me of Marimekko and the 1970s – her vibe was absolutely nothing I’d seen lately and everything nostalgic. I did more research and discovered that Liselotte was Swedish but lived and worked in Rome. It was kismet or it was about to be, as I made sure to meet her.

From Sweden to Texas to Paris to Milan, Rome and Tuscany, Liselotte’s a living adventure story. In this podcast, Liselotte shares with me her story and adventures in design, fashion and Italy.
