New pic, Same me <3 Time for my profile picture to reflect the last two years of progress for me, my art and where I want to go! but Why? - The old one was only meant to be temporary... but it's now been 2 years! - Shows off the style of art I've been working hard on - Includes a lil dragon from a world I've been building and will be the focus of a lot of my work going <3 That’s all really, just keep an eye out for the change everywhere!

Especially if it involves finding his favourite snack grapes! This collection features a Gratitude journal, a LARGE notepad and other one but TWO sticker sheets.

Introducing….. Barty! I am having so much fun making little characters out of little critters, and Barty is such a cutie! Also big shout out to AScotWithAScotch (Sean) for introducing me to fruit bats eating grapes, there is so much more coming in this collection with Barty and his favourite snack. I also spent some time this month learning how to make repeating patterns, more confusing to set up than I imagined, but we got there! There will definitely be a learning curve, playing about with scale, complexity and colour, but I am very happy with my start. Barty’s pattern features in this months digital wallpapers and in my first ever companion sticker sheet! Inspired by colourful washi tapes, this new style of sticker sheet features strips of Barty’s pattern and colour palette. Everything you need to make a great monthly planner spread!
