I,m not sure if this was an accident…..

Sir. I would like to thank you. You all think WC POC are stupid,they are very much awake. Tell them sir, TELL THEM #GrenfellTower

Fair Play, owners should be jailed for life, embarrassing that this happens in 2017. Anti-Blackness is global.

Are you safe? I just wanted to check on you and make sure you're okay in lieu of the Westminster attack.

Thankfully didn’t get caught in it, and as far as I can tell, nor did anyone I know. It’s still of course a very sombre time and I appreciate you checking in on me. All the best <3 x

Gentle reminder that often creativity decides to hibernate for a bit.

It’s okay.  You’re not broken, you’re resting, and much like spring, creativity comes back.

Hi I really love your work and I'm looking to get into gouache but I'm unsure what brand. Regardless of price which do you prefer royal talens or windsor and newton?

Thank you :) I like to switch between the two but at the moment I steer more towards royal talens.

Ive been struggling a lot lately selling my work. To the point that I need to sell it very cheap or people wont buy it. And I know my work have a good quality. But I really need the money. Do you have any advice to deal with this kind of situation?

Honestly, there’s no easy answer for this, I think it’s the biggest struggle for any creator; compromising on how you value your work in order to reach more people/make a living. All I can say from my personal experience is that if you feel like you’re compromising too much and really underselling yourself then you should maybe look to earn your money elsewhere (for now) and see your art income as a bonus while your following and sales grow. I have a job outside of art and that income allows me to price my work exactly how I want without feeling like I *need* the money. It’s just a bit difficult to find time to balance the two but, for me, it’s worth it for the financial stability.

Hey! I have been subbed to ur channel for awhile now and I'm just curious if you have any tips on doing a mural, like the bear one you did. Any tips or tricks on brushes, brands/types of paint, etc. Just a curios starter arter. Lots of love 😘😘❤❤😍

Hey love! I use either wall paint or acrylic paint (depending on what I have/what colours I need), no fancy brushes and my main tip with the actual painting would be to step back as often as possible to see how it’s coming together as a whole. 

‘Starter arter’ I like that :P
