February has been a wonderfully full creative month, so I thought it was time for another relaxed catch-up.

In this episode of my February Coloured Pencil Chronicles, I sit down and chat about what’s been happening behind the scenes, from recent drawings to a few exciting updates around the Academy.

In this episode I chat about:

• A recent trip away for several days of focused drawing
• The Fire Horse tutorial and the amazing response from the community
• Our current Art Club drawing and the joy of drawing together each week
• A new personal piece inspired by imagination, storytelling and Whitby
• Creative experiments and the freedom of exploring new ideas
• Journaling, notebooks and a growing love of stationery
• Studio updates and plans for improving my creative workspace

I always love sharing these little behind-the-scenes updates because they show the real rhythm of a creative life. Not just the finished drawings you see on social media, but the experiments, the new ideas forming, the inspiration that comes from unexpected places, and the simple joy of sitting down with a pencil and seeing what unfolds.

If you’d like to see the drawings I mention and hear the full story behind everything that’s been happening this month, you can watch the episode above.
