It’s funny how doing something completely different, using tools I’ve not used in a while, has created a sense of freedom in my drawing I’ve not felt for a long time. Perhaps it’s because I’m creating these drawings of my neighborhood for no one but myself. Or maybe it’s because I’m feeling stressed in a lot of areas of my life and drawing has once again become a place of refuge. Either way, I’m leaning into it.

Day late, but happy Chinese New Year, friends!

So I 100% spent way too much time on this illustration, but to be fair I did get barfed on three times while I was drawing it (not even joking right now, and yes, I did change my outfit. Well, my sweater. I may have just wiped down my jeans because honestly I had just washed them and the last thing I need is more laundry and plus it wasn’t that bad). Also: in my stories I’ve asked you all for your funny parenthood stories and situations so I can turn them into a little book. Share below or dm me!

I’ve started drawing our neighborhood as a way to say goodbye. We’ve lived in three different apartments over the past few years, but all in the same neighborhood in London: Dalston. It’s a vibrant, sometimes messy, but endlessly versatile area of Hackney in East London and I will miss all of it (ok maybe not the stories of people being chased down the street with a meat cleaver, although I was never witness to any of this myself)
. These are all done in watercolor, pencil, marker, and ink.
