Oh, what you can make from thrifed finds. I love it!

Matcha 🍵 Any tips are welcome!

Like, how do you draw the ‘bubbles’ and the reflection in them? It always looks like a chaos in my drawings, lol. Any tips for how to draw the finer details in oil pastel paintings? Any other tips are welcome too! I am just a hobby-ist.

This message made my whole week 🥹

Today a subscriber messaged me to say her first letter arrived. She mentioned she could only afford 3 months right now but wanted me to know she loves it.

I don’t know. Moments like this remind me why physical mail still matters. Someone took the time to write back. That alone made my whole week. 🫶🏻🌼

What’s the best compliment you’ve ever received about something you made or sent?

Did you say coffee? Tips are welcome!

I am a beginner, but I love how this turned out.

How do you draw fine details like tiny white spots as a light reflection/shiny effect? Or little birds in the sky or anything that is in the detail. Is there a ‘hack’? Do you use different media / materials or do you wait until the base layer dried out a bit more? Any tips are welcome!
