Cute meets graffiti 😆 – DRAW Newsletter ✏️


Hey Reader,

Welcome to our weekly "DRAW Newsletter" 😊

Before we dive in... I would like officially invite you to join the Kawaii Cuties Workshop – happening in a week! – and learn how to draw YOUR OWN kawaii cuties in Procreate (or any program you like to use).

You will love it!

It's PERFECT for you, if you:

  • Have an iPad and wanted to learn Procreate but ages, but feel frustrated or overwhelmed by it.
  • LOVE kawaii art and want to create your own drawings (for stickers, crafts, merch, etc), but all you can do is copy other drawings...
  • Want to connect with other kawaii enthusiasts!!!!

We are well over 600 participants at this point. 😊

That's a LOT of friends you can make! ❤️

Note: if you are a Kawaii Drawing Club® member – you are already in!

And now, back to our "DRAW Newsletter" 🥰

Inside, you will find:

  • D: drawing to inspire you
  • R: resource for creating awesome art
  • A: affirmation of the week
  • W: wonder – a question to wonder about

D: Drawing

Besides drawing the hot chocolates for the workshop ☕️🍫😋, I've been playing around with combining the visual style of graffiti (my long-time love 🥰) with cute kawaii vibes.

Here is one of my experiments. 👇

💬 What do you think about this combination? Reply to let me know!

R: Resource

Have your heard of Sticker Mule?

It's a service that prints stickers for you. The prices and quality are really good!

I remember spending a whole week on cutting stickers for the markets with my daughter. 😆

I am sure that exercise cost me hundreds of dollars in materials. 😅 Plus, my time! Getting the stickers printed would've been WAY easier.

I only recently discovered Sticker Mule (from one of our Kawaii Drawing Club® members, who sent me some of her stickers 😊).

A: Affirmation

Of course, preparing a BIG event like the Kawaii Cuties Workshop takes a lot of personal energy. 😊

If I am not careful, I can push it too far...

And then, the thoughts of "Why am I doing this?" and "It's too hard..." can start to come up.

Not productive!! 😆

So for this week's affirmation, I want to share the healing words of Edgar A. Guest:

"When the road you're trudging seems all uphill, when the funds are low and the debts are high, and you want to smile but you have to sigh, when care is pressing you down a bit – rest if you must, but don't you quit.
– Edgar A. Guest

W: Wonder

Whatever you are working on this week, here is a good question to ask yourself:

I wonder... what are 3 ways I can do this easier?

It's worth asking the question and pushing yourself to come up with at least 3 ways to make things easier, even if the ideas don't seem feasible. Think crazy, think creative!

You never know where an idea can lead to. 😊

With love,
Tatyana

PS: Join the Kawaii Cuties Workshop to learn how to draw YOUR OWN kawaii cuties!

Magical glow by Tatyana Deniz

Hey Reader, Welcome to 2025! 🌱 Wow, the holidays came and went like a whirlwind for me... like a blink. And now I am writing the first newsletter of the year, reflecting on the new feelings. It's as if everything is the same... but with a different quality to it. My feeling is that 2025 will bring many internal changes and discoveries. If we resist the changes, they will feel painful (imagine trying to move your foot and hold it in place with all your might at the same time 😆). If we embrace...
