39: Ingrid Sanchez - Watercolour Magic

Ingrid Sanchez, also known as CreativeIngrid, is a Mexican-British artist based in London. Celebrated for her vibrant, nature-inspired paintings, Ingrid uses her art to explore the connection between the natural world and the human spirit. Her work reflects a deep appreciation for color, movement, and the organic beauty of flowers, foliage, and celestial motifs.

Ingrid primarily works with watercolors, inks, and acrylics on paper, using bold, expressive brushstrokes to bring her vision to life. Through constant experimentation, she reinterprets the elements found in gardens and forests, creating artwork that invites viewers to see the world from a fresh perspective—one where nature and spirit converge.

Since 2016, Ingrid has been painting professionally, selling her original artworks to collectors worldwide and licensing her designs for a wide range of products. Her watercolors have been featured in art prints, stationery, home décor, textiles, and more, with collaborations including brands like Tervis, The Happy Planner, Makers Collective, and Moonpig.

Ingrid has led workshops in the USA, Mexico, and Europe, sharing her unique approach to watercolors and mixed media. In addition, her published works include contributions to Watercolor Techniques for Artists & Illustrators (2019) and her own book, DIY Watercolor Christmas (2021). Her dynamic style has been spotlighted in leading publications, including Artists & Illustrators Magazine
