Are you an early or late riser?⠀
⠀
Papa used to wake us all up at 5am (or earlier) on weekdays and 7am during weekends. He doesn’t like us waking up late but he never really explained why, he just said “It’s not nice” 😂 😂⠀
⠀
It became habitual and early morning hours became the most productive for me. I like that I have a head start and mornings are just peaceful. There’s also a certain quietness on the mental level that I really like. ⠀
⠀
Anyway, practiced my negative painting here. Took me weeks to finish 😅 ⠀

What are some of the biggest barriers to creativit

What are some of the biggest barriers to creativity that you’ve come across?

Burnout is by far the most challenging part in this creative journey. When you feeling burnout, you lose all inspiration, motivation and you forget the feeling of being encouraged. Your productivity and energy go down and eventually you may feel like you have nothing more to give. It’s a very scary place!

What I do is limit my interaction with people who whines a lot 😂 I take break, I watch Netflix and read feel-good articles, I doodle and paint for fun.

Time lapse Watercolor Landscape. First agenda of the year was to finish minor revisions of the book I’m writing. I told a friend how exciting to see it transform and developed into something I never thought possible 🥰 ⠀
⠀
We already have a title, we are talking about covers and chapter layout and it makes me happy every time I see a progress. No matter how busy life gets I will always be thankful for the time I get to paint and write this book. ⠀

Don’t ever depend on anyone else to boost your spirits or talk you up. Authentic self appreciation is about loving, valuing, and honoring ourselves, our gifts, and all of who we are – both light and dark.

What can you do to be your own cheerleader in your life right now? What do you appreciate and love about yourself?

HOW ARE YOU? I need an update! 😂👋

I compiled some of my waterscapes in one post so I could say hi to everyone! 🌹

I’ve been painting mad for weeks now and I love it! And I wish I could show it to you all but good things can wait right? 🙈

There were indications that I’m pushing my self way too much but it’s so fun! 😂 Like last week; while painting, my hand just stopped moving and the brush fell off 😂 It was numb for good 10 seconds and I laughed.

I know it’s way too late for this but HAPPY NEW YEAR!! 😂 🍷 What are your creative goals for this year?

I am so hyped about 2021! Few months from now my book is going to be out there. I am so excited but nervous at the same time.

I have so many plans for this year, so many goals and dreams to chase. So many errands, so many to-do’s. But today, I paint. 🥰

I woke up early, had a cup of coffee early, sketch early and paint as much I can.

Painted this piece with no expectations. I let myself enjoy a day of just painting with good music.

Sometimes showing up for your art with intentions of just creating is more than enough.

Just want to share these words that gave me so much inspiration.
“Enjoy the process and produce an enjoyed piece of artwork”

I heard this form one of many podcasts I’ve been listening to lately (thanks to all of your recommendations!!) 💐

I signed a book deal!! 📚🎉
⠀
To be a published author is on my bucket list for such a long time. My dream came true this year when I signed a contract to write my first book (hopefully more to come 🙈).⠀
⠀
It started with an email that made me jumped up and down with excitement and after series of meetings, exchange of emails and sample materials which took me two long months, here it is! I am still pinching myself every now and then. I know it’s going to be mentally, emotionally and physically draining experience, but I will embrace every minute of this journey. ⠀
⠀

Happy February! 💕

What is a perfect Valentine’s gift for you? Mine is something like this. 😂Thank you @nevskayapalitra_world for spoiling me with amazing supplies 🥰

As an artist, what are your non-negotiable standar

It's amazingly hard for me to believe, but it's al

It's amazingly hard for me to believe, but it's already been 3 years since I made the decision to get serious about advancing my painting skills. I love the process so much I became a passionate towards watercolor.⠀
⠀
I invested by making time and by buying artists grade watercolor painting supplies and the process became more enjoyable (I never knew that was possible cos I’m so in love with the process already). I made it my objective to paint and learn as much as I could, whenever I could. ⠀
⠀
One of the things I found most helpful is creating swatches and understand paint pigments. I’ll a pick a paper that I used the most and swatch my paints from there, I used to have a lot of different brands of paints and took me so much time cos I want to study them all but I always feel comfortable using White Nights. ⠀
⠀
I’m not done learning yet, I will never be. It’s a continuous evolution and to be honest, I liked it that way. 💕⠀
