A Day in the Life

...in July

Hi everyone!

This is a day in the life I filmed a few weeks ago. I've done a few of these, as I know I was curious about what an illustrator does all day when I was still working full-time and wondering whether to make the switch. I think it's kind of impossible to capture a "typical" day, as they all vary somewhat, but ultimately, there are days where you are in the studio painting - like this one, with various bits around the side. I hope you find it interesting, let me know what you think, and if you would like to see more of these.

I'm afraid I won't be able to fit a Playdate in this month, as we're heading off on holiday tomorrow, so this is for your viewing pleasure instead. If I can, I'm hoping to film a little "packing art materials for holiday" video as I pack everything up, which I will upload later today (with luck!).

See you in August! I hope you all have lovely summers (or Winters, if you are in the Southern Hemisphere) and see you in a few weeks!
