D: Drawing

This month, we are drawing cute puppies from photos at the Kawaii Drawing Club®. It's a super fun project with so many opportunities for cute products!

Here is one of the puppies we drew 😍:

And here is a gorgeous phone, create by case by Anna Hartzog (@kawaiikreeps on Instagram and TikTok) after the Masterclass 😊.

R: Resource

I was invited Sketchnote School to be part of their "Sketch, Doodle, Draw" bundle giveaway 😊 – a pack of FREE resources to help you create your own doodly fun.

As part of this bundle, I am sharing my hand-drawn doodle stamps for Procreate (normally, only available at KDC) until Feb 19th, so that you can quickly and easily add doodly fun to your drawings 😍.

A: Affirmation

This past week for me has been one big "test" of patience and my ability to release expectations 😆.

My focus keeps being interrupted... and I feel that I am making very slow progress 🐌.

I was speaking with Meagan Brown about this – a friend, a mom of 2 young children, a business owner, and a beautiful makeup artist – and she shared this piece of wisdom:

Slow is the fastest way.

Yes!!!

W: Wonder

I love this question 😄 (first peeked from Alex Hormozi).

I am going to share it here in the context of "time". But it can be applied to ANY type of resource.

Swap time for money, space, fabric, remaining battery on your phone 😆. It still works!

Here is the "10x" question:

I wonder... how would I do this task if I had 1/10th of the time? What about 10x the time?

It's such a fun question. At first, the brain explodes into "That's not possible!!!!"

And then creative solutions begin to flow 😊.

Reply to this email to share YOUR insights and adventures!

Warm regards,
Tatyana
