This was my very first live of the year, and I wanted it to feel like a cozy reset: cats, watercolor chatter, and hanging out together in real time. It’s a Caturday-style stream where the vibe is less “perfect painting” and more “let’s be in the studio together,” with room for questions, tangents, and the usual cat interruptions. I also re-introduce my little community safety valve: if anything gets too sensitive, you can type “lumpy elephant” and I’ll steer us right back to cats and paints. I also point you to the places I keep my general supply links (Amazon CA/US/UK and Jackson’s), because I’m always testing materials and it’s easier to have one hub for the basics. If you shop through those affiliate links, it helps support the channel at no extra cost—so thank you. And if you’re new here: my public livestreams are Saturdays at 2PM ET (Caturday), with members-only lives on Thursdays at 2PM ET, plus my Linktree and Discord if you want more watercolor + cat chaos between streams.
