I finally got a table big enough to place all my stuff on! This is what people call a drafting table or a trestle table, which means you can tilt the table to an angle or height that lets you work better( note: not sponsored by Ikea).
So for the first drawing/ painting on this new table, I thought of doing something inviting and comfortable to help “break it in”, ie. another cozy cafe painting 😂
This isn’t a tutorial, but I do share some tips about painting with watercolor as well as some of my thoughts on anxiety regarding social media. Hope you find it helpful 💗
