What a beautiful place! Ireland is now going up higher on my travel list. And how do you get so many sketches done with two boys running around? I have one 8-year old bookworm and I didn’t even fill half of my very thin sketchbook in 2 weeks 😅

I’d say I sketch whenever I have a chance - if they’re happy on the go kart, I sketch!!

What a wonderful week Helen! Those scones look delish 😋 and I'm interested to hear what you think of your new sketchbooks vs Pith. Enjoy your break! 💚

Ok Michelle! I look forward to addressing this question upon my return 👌🏻❤️

Your weekly journals are like my end of week treat that I look forward to so much, and then I would save it to read them on my IPad in bed and hug it to sleep hahaha. that is how cozy it makes me feel.

Will you still be journaling when you are "out of office"? 🥺

This is so sweet I read it out loud to my family over lunch ❤️ and yes, I will be journaling but not posting here (as even getting it all onto a post takes me ages which is work!!)
