Join the art club!

Did you know that in high school I started the only art club in school? It was a small, not-very-well-organized thing that I assume has fizzled out since I was there (it was a great excuse to hang out and eat snacks).

But I loved it. I loved sharing ideas about illustration, artsy tips and tricks and just generally engaging with people who loved drawing as much as I did. And I think that’s why I really wanted to start this newsletter: to share virtual brain snacks, art thoughts, and general good feelings with you!

 

Your question could be featured on the Art Club newsletter!

Send me a question and I’ll feature it and my best answer for the Question Corner in the monthly newsletter.

(P.S. Let me know if you’d like your name featured.)

Before summer ends, I thought I’d share another pattern with ya’ll ☀️ When I lived in Texas, summer was my least fav season because it was always SCORCHING. Now that I’m in the UK, I’m trying to soak up any sun I can get! ⁠
