Hi there, unexpected AMA that I chanced upon. I really loved your book, "Shut your Monkey"! It led me to buying another book, "An Illustrated Life".
I have been learning watercolours but it is not the easiest medium and learning to draw. I have a full time job (marketing and it's quite hectic in this current company).
My question is: I usually come home quite tired from a day of work and when I do practice art, it leaves me feeling annoyed when I mess it up, especially in watercolours. What tips do you have to make this a more enjoyable process for me? I've been putting in effort to not judge myself and therefore can start to paint but the end results does not always make me wanna try more.
