Studio and life chat

(and let's be honest, ramble!)

Hello! I haven’t done one of these chatty - sit in the studio and just chat about what I have been up to, how I’ve been feeling - rambles for a while. So I thought I would break the seal and make one.

Also, I’ve been feeling pretty overwhelmed, and making a video feels more relaxing - which I hope makes it relaxing to watch as well. I always say this when I post these videos, but I imagine them as something to keep you company while you are pottering, or if you have a project on, as you while away the hours of sitting-at-the-desk-and-painting!

In this video I talk about:

First of all a life update - where I talk about teaching, the lecture I just gave, MY NEW BOOK! and how I felt in the lead up to pub day, and how I feel about it now, the new book I am working on. All of this with a few meanders along the way!

Then I talk about how I manage when I have a lot on. I (attempt) to talk you through how I organise myself, and how I prioritise everything.

As I say in the video, this is basically me making the content I want to see: what people are up to, how they manage it, and how they feel, plus, a bit of productivity stuff, because I love geeking out over that.

So, without further ado - here it is!
