Hello! Thanks for stopping by and reading my newsletter. Welcome! Happy 2023. A newsletter has been on my to do list for about a year. Maybe longer? I’m a terrible procrastinator - I know. I’ve been really enjoying reading other creatives’ blogs and newsletters over the past few months. I’ve grown a bit tired of endlessly scrolling and flitting from one social media post to the next and I really don’t like how it makes my focus and concentration go all out of whack. I want to take time to sit, read and absorb. I love to learn about other people’s thoughts, processes and insights around their work. This feels like a more comfortable and natural place to talk about things so I’ll be sharing drawings, paintings, work in progress and sketchbook stuff as well as some of what I’ve been reading/watching/listening to from the month.
Lovely to see some of your sketchbook musings and read about your process and concerns. I have no solution for switching from commissioned vs. personal work unfortunately, it's always been hard to change mindset quickly from one to the other.
