Learning to sketch in watercolour. Here I'm sharing my humble attempts to sketch life around me.

247/365 morning practice! Needed a warmup coffee sketch (left) to get my hand moving. Next I noticed two friends sitting by the window so far they wouldn’t notice me sketching them. I started with an ink line and didn’t like how it went, so I switched to watercolour, added the window behind the lady. Next I did another sketch (two friends below) directly with watercolour — it turned out easier on such a small scale 🎨

236/365 accidentally did the two hardest things in sketching: drawing people on location and direct watercolour (no pencil/ink lines) — got an adrenalin rush as a result 😂 wow... Sketching feels like a workout at times 😅

The thing about people who constantly gaslight you is, that's the only leverage they have. Once you see through their veil of deception, they're powerless. That's why they're so desperate to keep on lying, piling one falsehood atop another. They know that if they pause—even for a moment—the fog will clear and they'll be finished. So it has to be relentless, unending.

The only way to deal with it is to block it. Run, don't walk, away, Don't engage or wrestle with it.

Starve it of all oxygen.

Hopeless is happy. All I got is present moment. Hope takes that moment away. Therefore I need no hope to keep on living what is.

198/365 Tolya got me this amazing new sketchbook, I was hesitant to start it as it’s too large and it seems too good, but YOLO! Here is a study of my love, just look at him 😍
