Hey Reader,

I hope you are having a beautiful week ☀️.

What is your "creative self" thinking, feeling and doing in these intense days of moving into a new cycle? 😊

It's wild... but I feel that my art taste is changing! 😮

I've been doing a lot of "tight" and "shiny" art over the past years.... and now I feel called to loose and doodly style. And drawing by hand. Interesting!

Well, that's part of the journey, isn't it.

I would love to hear from you. What is your experience like? Reply to this email to share!

And now, here is the latest issue of our "DRAW Newsletter".

Inside, you will find:

D: Drawing

I made this drawing using a mix of colored pencils, watercolor and Copic markers. I love it!

This was part of a Skillshare course with Yasmina Creates (I'll link to it below).

I love how dynamic it came out. An opulent mix of textures, colors, and doodle elements – while still having that cute "kawaii" feel. 🥰

Yesssss!! Such a fun style. I am really enjoying it.

R: Resource

Here is the class I mentioned above, if you want to check it out:

A: Affirmation

Over the holidays, we did a "Back to the Future" marathon with the family.

I love this quote, right at the end:

Such a good movie 🙂.

W: Wonder

When going through periods of creative uncertainly (or any uncertainty), I like to ask myself this question, to make the unknown – known.

And then lean into that "yes". Take action. DO something for that "yes".

I hope this helps you strengthen your "yeses" too 😊.

You are an amazing, beautiful, magical human being. Trust yourself!!!

Warm regards,
Tatyana
