I've had so many struggles with my tendons throughout my life. I've talked about my repetitive strain injuries before, where my elbow and wrist ached from drawing - something I've managed to overcome with time, but it was a problem for years. I've also had a lot of injuries from running in my kne...

For those who missed it, here's the full March Q&A session! We talked a lot about perfectionism: the different ways it manifests, how we can shift our focus to other things, and how you can set goals to offset the hold that it can have. I think this is such an important topic to talk about an...

This month's challenge was on painting dense foliage! It can be really hard to capture the complexity of multiple leaves without getting lost in the details, and that was definitely a challenge for me with this one - but in the end I really enjoyed drawing these huge, floppy leaves.
