Love the friend-sourced problem solving. And your generous offer to help. This is a fantastic way to get and keep the creative energy moving. I've been doing the same kind of thing with Pivot to the Podium, just offering to help move things forward, and it's so fulfilling to be in conversation and support of other's efforts. BTW - My daughter makes handmade books and knows all about how to bind and layout and print such things. Let me know if you'd like contact info.

Your work with Pivot to the Podium is so awesome. Really kind of you to work with others to tell their story.

Woah thanks for the note about your daughter! I'll let you know if I hit any road bumps. Handmade books are very cool.

I’m very excited for your book project. And I love that your friends are all offering to help. It’s so important to have friends to support your creative work so I’m glad you shared this as a reminder for me to reach out to my own network when I’m in need!

Also, where are you taking this digital painting class? I want to take one. Do you recommend?

Yes yes! People are so kind and gracious with their time, resources & skills. I'm definitely lucky to be able to ask them for help.

I'm taking painting classes from a group called Warrior Painters: https://www.warriorartcamp.com/ My current class is this one: https://www.warriorartcamp.com/digital-painting-basics-a-heavypaint-class-with-henry-chau :)

Love this! I’m actually in Japan for the next two weeks.

I do come across the hurdles when it comes taking on big projects. So I like the idea of writing them out and getting some ideas down to still keep the project going! Love your photos from Japan by the way!

Eviana!! Omigosh how are you? Whereabouts in Japan are you at?

Thanks for the kind words :) I'd be so lost without writing ideas down. I can't wait to see what's in that gold mine of yours :)

Doing well! Just landed in Tokyo!

Yeah, gotta keep it going! I’d also love to support as a cheerleader or if you ever need a bounce board.

I brought my yashica samurai half frame to get some nice pics (:
