Sharing some cosy inspiration (not using social media) this week and some of my earliest influences on my creative journey. My IG Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/theunexpectedgypsy/ Also, a drawing warm-up, sketching session and draw with me date. Let's get super autumn cozy, grabbing floor cushions, all our favourite books and a nice cuppa tea! Let me know your favourite ways for getting inspired too in the comments below! Thank you so much for keeping me company. Try to keep your lights shining bright & your teacups full! Softest Hugs, Wendy. Xx
