In this cozy creative podcast-style video I’m catching you up on what I’ve genuinely been making lately — not just sketchbook pages, but also finished illustrations, the art supplies I keep reaching for, and all the little “side quests” that feed my art brain. I chat through my current sketchbook work, what’s been inspiring me right now, and why I love giving myself permission to follow new creative passions as they come (with a cup of tea nearby, of course). I also share a peek into the other side of my creativity: knitting, sewing, and even restoring things — the slow, hands-on hobbies that feel calming and grounding, and somehow always circle back into my art journaling. Along the way I mention a few favourites like my Arches cold press pad, my art toolkit palette, and the Deep Deep Light watercolours I’ve been using most this month (Captains Grey and Mother Earth). This video is really about creative momentum and letting your interests overlap, so do tell me if you’d like more videos in this relaxed “studio chat” format.
