You’ve convinced me to read this book! I love your watercolor flowers. Paying attention to what we pay attention to is such great advice

Thank you!!! In reading Kathryn's book I saw that each of the artist's she features were (more or less) aware of what was on their minds and using that as a topic for their artwork. That reminded me of one of my art professors at university who said that an artist can be inspired by anything, even their sock drawer, if they tune in to their thoughts and feelings while looking at the world. So these thoughts inspired me to write my "pay attention" sketchbook page 😁

So glad you liked it! Thank you!

I agree with your prof! Inspiration comes in many different guises. We just need to pay attention.

Thank you so much for this. I've loved our conversations and all that you've shared around the book. As you already know, I love the photos that you took of the book and our coffees. I really want this book to be just the start of the conversation around art and mental health and I think that this reflects that so well in a visual way. Really, really love your sketchbook shares. <3 <3 <3
