I’ve made it over and I’m here and now I’m trying to work out how I become a paid subscriber. Great post and it all makes a lot of sense and now I want to be HERE and not over THERE 😆 x
Hooray, Ella! I don't know if you remember me, but I was a patron briefly :) So happy to see you over here on Substack, welcome! And I LOVE that spread from your MA, don't think I've seen it before. Such delightful outfits!
It’s so lovely to read your story and learn more about your art journey, thanks for sharing. Love your illustrations, and seeing your sketchbook artwork. Curious to hear more about Art Play dates, that’s something I have done in the past and always enjoy taking part in.
You’re nurturing a remarkable space here on Substack. I couldn’t quite pinpoint what it was that caught my curiosity when I subscribed, until I read your manifesto and thought “There it is....Yes!” Congratulations.
Good luck Ella! I love your boldness and I'm sure people will want to come with you on the journey. Also it's SO LOVELY to see your MA illustrations again, the net is mesmerising and those colours, how do you layer your watercolours so exquisitely? I cannot WAIT to see your published books.
Congratulations on your leap of faith! Your manifesto is brilliant, love that it’s no bullshit!! Sounds like your building a really useful space for other illustrators (and the illustrator curious). Huge congratulations on your new books too!!
Hello! I was briefly a Patron way way back, but life got in the way... now I'm enjoying being here on Substack and showing up as my true creative self and loving it! This post inspired me to sign up fully, I am so excited to dive in to your space!

Thanks Susan! I’m doing the next Art Play Date this Weds, and will post all about it on Monday. Hopefully see you there! Xx
