In this video I talk to you about something quite close to my heart. Why working small in your sketchbook is actually really, really powerful. So if you've ever felt really stuck, really overwhelmed or you feel like you just don't have time to be creative. This video is absolutely for you.
You don't need hours of free time or big blank pages to make beautiful and meaningful art. In fact working small on a regular basis might just unlock more joy, confidence and consistency than you expect. It certainly has for me. Watch the video and I’ll talk about why.
