My purpose with this channel is to share with you the creative process. Whether it's jewelry, sewing, knitting, drawing, painting, making tallow, sharing thoughts and ideas etc. I am a multi passionate person and I found that by trying to be one thing (a jeweler) I was constantly burning out and my cup never felt full. I made the conscious decision to dedicate myself to creation and creativity and it's been a slow process of shedding layers to get back to what I love doing, and it's making anything and everything that inspires my creative energy to flow.

Having a dedicated drawing and sketchbook practice over the last decade or so has been a very simple way to stoke my creative flame. I hope this inspires you to open your own sketchbook and be free with it, have fun, and to create for the sake of creation. Maybe it will be seen, maybe it wont, it doesn't really matter. The energy you put into even the smallest act of creation has ripple effects you sometimes wont immediately see but are very much there.

Thanks for watching and thanks for being here.
