The number one thing you should do if you want to improve your skills and productivity as an artist is to paint daily. Even if it's just 30 minutes. Starting (and sticking to) a daily painting practice might feel really difficult to do, but it's not impossible. In this video, I'm sharing my strategy for improving my art in 2022, along with 4 steps to take when creating your own daily practice.
You'll also get to see me break in a new watercolor sketchbook with a little portrait painting.

ABOUT

Hi, I’m Louise: an artist, writer & creative solopreneur from Sweden. As a multi-passionate creative, I have spent my entire adult life avoiding traditional employment and instead making a living off of my art.
On this channel, I talk about everything I've learned along the way: About art making, creativity, mental health, and making a living as a creative. Dealing with perfectionism, fears, and overwhelm. Staying sane and productive among stress and distractions. And much more.
