I’ve snuck away to Portugal for a little business and personal retreat – my end-of-year reset, and a gentle reminder of how important it is to pause, breathe, and make space for creativity (even when life feels full).
In this month’s Coloured Pencil Chronicles video, I’m sharing what’s been going on behind the scenes – from new tutorials and podcast recordings to exciting updates on the Spark App (yes, it’s now free to download!) and a few unexpected reflections from my time here.
There’s laughter, a few tangents (of course 😄), and plenty of honest chat about creativity, mindset, and finding balance.
🎥 Watch the full Portugal Chronicles video below – it’s a lovely one:
Exciting Things Coming Up in November
There’s so much to look forward to this month – from drawing together as a community to a full week of creative inspiration to help you find your spark again. Here’s what’s on the way…
✍️ Free Live Draw – Friday 14th November, 2pm (UK Time)
The dark nights are here, so let’s get cosy and create together!
Join me live in my free Coloured Pencil Facebook Group for a relaxed draw-along – no sign-ups, no fuss, just pencils, paper, and good company.
This time, we’ll be drawing a festive Schnauzer (he’s so cute — you’re going to love him!). 🐶
