D: Drawing

There is LOTS of fresh energy in our Happy Creators Collective community this month! ✨

We are enjoying drawing kawaii Japanese Food, especially the daily drawing prompts.

Look at the cuteness!!!!! 😍👇

These were drawing responses from the community for Day 1: Dango.

I hope they bring you loads of inspiration!!!

(clockwise: Lisa Choi, Amanda Scheuzger, Jennifer Windrow, Miranda Pollard)

Joyce even created a little book for the Daily Prompts, and got her kids, husband, sister and parents to join in.

How cool! 😄

R: Resource

If you want to commit to drawing regularly and improving your skills, I can't recommend a better resource this week than our Happy Creators Collective community 😊.

We are doing a LIVE Masterclass tonight at 7pm US Eastern, where we'll draw this adorable kawaii Halloween pair (Japanese food inspired, of course!)

And next week... we are going to animate it (!!!) and learn the basics of animation in Procreate!

If you've been considering our community as your creative home, this weekend is a great time to join, because you'll be able to experience this tutorial LIVE, and pick up special savings!

A: Affirmation

Last weekend, I hosted a Birthday party for my son (who just turned 10 – BIG moment ☺️).

• 7 big kids
• 3 small kids
• 2 toddlers
• 11 hungry parents

I could have totally stressed over this "big moment".

Instead, I said to myself, "Let it be easy".

I wanted to enjoy this moment.

I wanted to have a peaceful morning before the party, ease into hosting, have fun conversations with the parents, and do minimal clean up after the party 😜.

So I opted for finger foods that don't require much prep (chips & dips, baby!) and ordered a few pizzas.

We had a blast!!!!

And everyone left satisfied with full bellies.

So here is this week's affirmation:

W: Wonder

Here is this week's question to wonder about:

Have a beautiful week! ❤️

With love,
Tatyana
