Color and Light ✨ – DRAW Newsletter ✏️

D: Drawing

For this week's drawing inspiration, I would like to share a few drawings by our Kawaii Drawing Club® member – Diane McGirr.

She's been doing the "daily drawing prompts" and creating aaaaamazing art 😍. Absolutely adorable!

You can see more of Diane's work on Instagram @happykawaiistudio

R: Resource

We are doing a Masterclass on color theory next week at the Kawaii Drawing Club®.

To prepare, I've been looking over my resources for working with color... and remembered about this book! 😃

It's hands down the BEST book for learning color fundamentals (in my opinion).

A: Affirmation

I've been contemplating this quote by James Clear this week:

Take all the energy you spend on...
worrying about the past
worrying about the future
worrying about what others think
worrying about if you might fail
... and channel that energy into one useful action within your control.

So good! 🔥

I've definitely been channeling my energy into something that's outside of my control 😅. It's exhausting.

Instead, I can turn it towards self care, my family, creativity...

So here is this week's affirmation:

I claim back my energy. And I get to choose where I direct it.

Easier said than done 😆.

But hey, that's why it's an affirmation!

W: Wonder

Here is this week's question to wonder about, related to the above quote:

I wonder... what do I worry about that's outside of my control? How can I use this energy instead?

Please reply to share your story!

Warm regards,
Tatyana
