What inspired you to start your business?
I have worked at a preschool teaching arts when I was younger, and I realised how amazing it was working with two things I really love; Kids & Art. But only after I had a son, I decided to follow my dream.
My child is a huge source of inspiration. Love watching him ‘in his world’ where everything is amazing and fun. Sometimes he’d say something that just triggers creativity, for example, the other day he asked me to draw a “ninja pig”. He encourages me to be creative and I love it.
Is there an interesting anecdote behind your business name?
My other passion is flowers. There’s a flower called ‘monkey brush’ and for me, ‘monkey’ makes me think of something childish and fun, and ‘brush’ makes me think of art… Nothing amazing but it makes sense to me 🙂
