Hello!
It has been really hard for me to get out of my comfort zone, painting and then publishing my sketchbook pages here.

But there you go, I made it!

Writing the description sounds all so planned now, but at the moment I was really guided by my creative instinct- that has been asleep for some time!

Any feedback and suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Day 1 - Journey. I used watercolor and pencils to draw a giant version of me walking through the mountains. Fearless Sketchbook! - image 1 - student project

Day 2 - Cloudwatching. Maybe I was inspired by my cup of tea! I doodled some colored lines with watercolour and then I used a Posca to complete the background and the tea.

Day 3 - Feelin' a bit slow. I used watercolor and my favorite brush, this is the exercise that I enjoyed the most!

Day 4 - Shake it up! After painting with this bright colors I felt so energized. I used white Posca after a couple of hours because - why not!

Day 5 - Metamorphosis. From dots to flowers. I felt a bit of responsibility at some point for what was going to happen on paper. I had to pay extra attention to the negative space.

Day 6 - Metamorphosis #2 - Full page. Thats what happens when I play "all the strings in my harp" and I allow myself to go dark and a bit creepy.

Day 7 - Crowd of Creatures. The middle one looks a lot like my cat, Olivia. I went for Fantastic Creatures and I like them to wear shoes.

Day 8 - colors & more colors. I felt very calm and creative that day and I went for different shades of blue and slow lines.

Day 9 - Flatten it out. that's me and my cat in my house in Milan. I think this is one of my favorite pages of the sketchbook!

Day 10 - Thread. This page was so relaxing for me. I used some watercolor that looks like ink and I loved seeing the different threads overlap.

Day 11 - Transform me. My least favorite page became a bit gloomy, but I think the creatures found their home :D

Day 12 - Structure. I got inspired by the demo and that's what happened.

Day 13 - Take 2. I skipped this day by mistake. I'll create this page and then update the project.

Day 14 - Texture. I was inspired by the floor tiles of my house
