Bringing some whimsy to you today ✨ and yes this is real life!! 24 Sep 2026

It’s been over a year since I did a proper introduction so HAIII! It me. Lots of new faces here and I’m so grateful to have you along for a very colourful ride 🦋 In case you don’t know Ruco is: - Proudly handmade. All the ceramics that you see and all the paint are made in our tiny studio in Mullumbimby! - Vegan 🌱 I don’t use honey in our formulation. The binder contains only Gum Arabic crystals, water, vegetable glycerin and pure rosemary oil - Rare and unique colours. More than half of the range of paints I’ve specifically formulated the blends of just for Ruco. The other half is beautiful single pigment paints I’ve made my way, the ones you’ll be familiar with already, like ultramarine blue - I don’t cut corners and I support as many small Aussie business’ during my production as possible. All the details matter, because you deserve the best from me! I’d love to get to know you too, so if you’re new (or if you’ve been around a while) pop down below and tell me what drew you to Ruco. Maybe where you’re at with your creativity and something that makes you happy right now or even a fact about yourself 🫶🏻 I’d love to chat and get to know all you cool beings! Marls and fam x 25 Sep 2026

Of all the subscriptions you could have in 2026 this has gotta be the most wholesome and actually GOOD for you. A new paint in the mail each month with a love note and some pretty little surprises?! Something that just asks you to sit down with presence and paint and watch your creativity flow. I really love having a space to hang out with my paint besties, and to share more authentically and in longer/different formats so I can better connect with you, explore deeper topics and less trends. We have a community chat in the app which provides a safe space for you to share your work, ask questions and connect with other watercolour artists. From time to time there is polls which help shape the community, discounts and even preorders so you never miss out on new colours 💃🏻 The archive of tutorials, conversations and posts is always growing and once you join you unlock everything we’ve created to date!! BORING BUT IMPORTANT BITS: If you’re a new member signing up using iOS please join via the safari app or desktop directly to avoid apples “service” fee of 30% on top of your subscription which is charged for all in app purchasing now. After you’re signed up you can then open the Patreon app as normal and your price is locked in! ALSO: international subscribers are so welcome! I still cover the postage, however I only post yours every second month (meaning you get two colours at a time) to keep the shipping cost down. For the US, I post 3 monthly (pending changes!) so I can cover the tariffs for you too. 🫶🏻 Aussies, yours is posted at the end of each month so you can paint along with me!! I can’t wait to fuel your creativity and have you painting and playing with us! X 24 Apr 2026

Today I spent 12 hours packing your orders, I even recruited @brucethomasdaniel for a few hours to help create labels and picks single colours. It’s a labour of love, one I choose to do myself, because I’m genuinely so fkn grateful you all care enough about my craft to support it. I filmed one of the local orders, which is why it’s in a bag and not a mailer, and I just felt sad looking at the video. It’s beautiful, it shows what I do, how I take my time individually wrapping each item with recycled materials and plant based cellulose, the extra things I add. And, it likely won’t get many views. It won’t get many comments or likes or shares because it’s “boring”. It’s a shame that the real thing, the human love and joy for my craft and a genuine share of what I’m up to that day is no longer enough in this platform. However it doesn’t mean I won’t share it, in fact I’ll share with some vulnerable honest thoughts to boot. Because this is my little business, this is my day, this is my grateful heart packing boxes of orders today because you humans care enough about small handmade to invest in it, and in yourself and your creativity. So I’m posting for me, and hopefully if you see this, for you to. To remind us all that real joy and genuine sharing is always going to be more important that what computers deem will entertain us the most. 🙃 #smallbusiness #handmade #paint #watercolour #packing 13 Nov 2026

isn’t it funny how we make these decisions about ourselves most often in childhood/at school and just shut ourself off from experiencing something for the rest of our lives I’ve had these constant pings in my breathwork sessions this year of seeing myself painting and so I set an intention about reconnecting with my childlike creative side 🌀 I am such a beginner but you know what, it’s so f**king fun and having an (almost) daily practice now thanks to being forever inspired by the beauty of creating with @rucopaints has been such a gift to myself the last few months 🙏🏼 11 Nov 2026

Making ‘Mistwood’ ✨ 01 Nov 2026

Trust me though I’m just flabbergasted and want to take the time to celebrate the hard work, the overwhelm, the joy, the disbelief, the growth and creativity of the past 5 years. Maybe it can inspire someone else a fraction of what is possible if you just commit to your crazy idea! Literally thousands of you have ordered some of you coming back (I do not jest) over 100 times over the years. I’ve got some of the most beautiful emails, reviews and kind words in DMs that I could ever imagine. Ive been stopped in the supermarket and on the beach to ask if I’m Ruco (like yes that is my other name), for you to tell me how you’ve found your way back to your creativity. I’ve made tens of thousands of paint pots and batches of paint by hand. I’ve filled hardrives with photos and videos of colour that I’ve shared with you. I’ve ran workshops, had multiple studio versions and another baby since starting this thing. It’s been wild and I wouldn’t change anything if im honest. Even the lower moments made it all real, and these achievements all the sweeter. Maybe you can share a favourite Ruco moment below, or a proud moment of your own so we can celebrate each other! ❤️‍🔥 07 Nov 2026

I’m so jazzed (lol can you tell??) to share these epic Ruco x @boundtolovethem journals! I get asked constantly what paper or journals I recommend to accompany my paints and so I thought I’d make it super simple and make some for you. These are A5, 300gsm cold pressed 100% cotton paper. They’re chunky too, with 48 pages (24 sheets) and in two stunning Ruco inspired colour ways. The unique braiding with ribbon on the sides is the highlight for me, you all know I’m OBSESSED with beautiful details and I cannot imagine anything better than what Lou came up with. These baddies are officially online and waiting for you — super limited numbers and keep in mind slow to make = slow to restock if you don’t want to miss out xx #handcrafted #journal #watercolourpainting 06 Nov 2026

Have you secured yours yet? Once it’s over this set won’t be made again. Take a closer look at the gorgeous box set including 8 exclusive Ruco watercolours, a stunning 50 page journal and 2 round brushes on the @etchr_lab site 🎨 05 Nov 2026

I beg your pardon I’ve been making babies and art for 5 years now?? I beg your pardon I’ve been supporting my family with my creativity?? Pinch me I’m dreaming (and dramatic) 🦋 My heart is full and always brimming with thanks. Excuse me for being a broke record, but this life wouldn’t be possible with you. Yes you! Your likes, comments, messages, investments in your own creativity are what allows Ruco to thrive, grown and continue with my mission to spread creativity like fire. I am forever thankful to my community, and to myself for taking a chance on this wild idea I had walking out the Bruns wall with my 5 month old son in my arms. ILYSM ❤️‍🔥 04 Nov 2026
