D: Drawing

At the Happy Creators Collective, we've been learning how to draw backgrounds and create magical worlds for our characters.

This is my version ☝️ expanding the world of my character "Eduard the Artsy Eggplant".

And these are the fun and imaginative worlds that our members created for their original characters!

To learn how to create YOUR OWN magical worlds and characters, I invite you to join us at the Happy Creators Collective!​

R: Resource

I recently had the pleasure of connecting with Naomi Garcia on her show, where we talked about finding your creative voice and the opportunities we have today as artists.

It was so inspiring, and a lot of fun! 😊

A: Affirmation

Life feels very-very packed with "todo".

I often find myself saying:

"I'll do this, when..."

"I'll organize the studio, when this project ends."

"I'll cook more, when I have more time."

And the "when" just doesn't seem to happen, until I either MAKE room for it, or the circumstances require it (and not always in a pleasant way, haha).

So here is this week's affirmation:

W: Wonder

To continue on the theme of making time for things that matter, there are days when I procrastinate...

Can you relate? 😜

Instead of just jumping into recording a video, I decide to clear my inbox... and then I end up working late.

And then... the worst.

Working late eats into crafting time with my daughter, which is the MOST important to me!

So here is this week's question to wonder about that cured my procrastination:

Once I ask this, I get straight to work 😄

I hope you have a good week that brings you smiles!

With love,
Tatyana
