#MarchMeetTheMaker : Mistake or Lesson 🖋
I don’t mind making mistakes and learning from them. But there is one kind of a mistake that drives me crazy... when you start a brand new notebook / sketchbook and the first page ends up with ‘a blob’ 🤦🏼♀️ And … https://t.co/cACbG85Los
#MarchMeetTheMaker : Motivation/Goals🖊 I often say that I have more ambition/ideas/plans than I can manage... that says a lot where my plans are ha! I’ve been thinking about it a lot in the past year and there are some new plans in the making. In t… https://t.co/2rxHhW9NoN
#MarchMeetTheMaker : How I learnt 🖊
I’m sure I was taught how to draw a house or a tree at some point in my childhood, but that would be it. It’s all practice for me.
I once attended a proper drawing class as a teenager, but left (crying!) after th… https://t.co/8Dh8h4e2Uq
#MarchMeetTheMaker : Photography 🖊
I take my photos at home most of the time, unless travelling - then a table in a cafe or just my lap can do the job. It’s usually my iPhone (currently iPhone 7S), but sometimes I use my DSLR. The latter requires tr… https://t.co/OD5PUB8WtW
#MarchMeetTheMaker : Hands at work 🖊
My right hand is in charge of holding the pen or brush, while my left hand is there to press the paper and keep it in place. Both handy 😉👐🏻 I’m right handed, but my left hand is good at kids drawing! We needed a … https://t.co/8uzcEQ66OL
#MarchMeetTheMaker : Reducing waste 🖊 Every year I do more and more! Especially in everyday life: recycling, using bamboo toothbrush and solid soap, saying no to plastics bags, straws, etc. I bring my coffee cup & water bottle everywhere I go too. … https://t.co/5ztrU1z8Hj

#MarchMeetTheMaker : Less glam side 🖊
The less glam side... that can definitely be my studio. Or actually the lack of it! My dream is that one day I will have my own proper corner, attic, or ideally a shed or studio, where my creative life will have… https://t.co/wMMkAxYBuw
#MarchMeetTheMaker : Full or part time 🖊
Anulka has been a side freelance project, sometimes bigger or smaller, but always on the side of my full time and part time jobs for years. I like that it’s there, still, even when real life struggles and bil… https://t.co/g44A78y9fp
#MarchMeetTheMaker : Tools & materials 🖊
Black pens, and more black pens. For some reason my style is usually countour based, more or less graphic, sometimes cartoon-ey. I tried MANY pens, but my favourite for some time now are Sakura Micron Pigma.… https://t.co/riauOCfeN6
#MarchMeetTheMaker : Flatlay 🐚
Whatever it is about flatlay photography, it works! I use it a lot as a composition for my works; it’s easy to do and offers endless options. It’s easier than taking a photo of a frame on the wall with different surrou… https://t.co/dv7CgD7wfJ
