D: Drawing

One more drippy design today with street art vibes!

This was a fun project we did at the Kawaii Drawing Club®. 😊 Check out a few member drawings! 😍

R: Resource

I don't know how practical this is, but I love the idea!

A friend told me about a website called Make My Plush, where you can upload your child's drawing, and they will make a custom plushie from it. All by hand!

Look super fun. 🥰 So I wanted to share with you.

A: Affirmation

I have a high tolerance for pain and hard work.

I used to consider it my strength (and sometimes it is 💪).

But as I transition into my 40s, I am asking myself more and more... "Do I really need to grind this one out? Is there an easier, simpler way?"

Some things require grit – no question about it.

Making art requires grit for sure. 😆 NO ONE can do my art for me. Or eat my meals.

But grinding through MANY daily activities eats away the energy I can put TOWARDS the grit of making art! That's my big insight of this week. 😁

Here this week's affirmation, inspired by Dan Sullivan's book Who Not How:

We get in life what we are willing to tolerate.

W: Wonder

Building on the the fact that we get in life what we are willing to tolerate, I almost want to start a "things I tolerate" journal 😆 for a few weeks – to really gain insight into this.

So here is a question to wonder about this week:

I wonder... what in life am I just tolerating? And how much time do I spend doing it?

Let's reflect on this together. 😊 No judgement, and no need to change anything. Just become aware!! Change happens on its own, through awareness.

Have a beautiful week! ❤️

With love,
Tatyana

Hey Reader, I hope you are having a beautiful week ❤️. It's been a busy one for me... During the recent "Kawaii Cuties Workshop" I dropped a comment, "Maybe we should make the next workshop all about Procreate..." And the comments blew up with "Yes please!!!" 🔥 So I've decided to teach a 2-day workshop to share with you my absolute best Procreate tips and techniques – from complete zero to a confident creator. I believe I can do this in 2 days 😆. And I have proof! 😄 Stay tuned. Workshop dates...
