Dec update: time for celebration, portfolio review, sending my book to a publisher, really good news, and Christmas cards

December 22, 2017 Romica Spiegl

Hello, 

in this video, I share what happened in December. I finally submitted my draft for my thesis and feel like I can finally relax a bit. I will also share how my recent children's book portfolio review went, my recent big step of sending my dummy out to a publisher for the first time, some other good news, and you can finally have a look at the Christmas cards I illustrated featuring a cute hedgehog - better late than never ;)

Stay joyful,
Romica

Nov update: mental health, book progress, thoughts on craft fair fail, and exciting opportunity

December 3, 2017 Romica Spiegl

Hello, 

this video is long, mostly because I wanted to share some of the more difficult sides of getting out there with your art. I went to a craft fair to sell my new greeting cards which, due to many reasons, did not turn out so well. On the other hand I will share 4 things that went really well this month from improved mental health, over to almost completing my children's book project, an upcoming portfolio review, and an exciting opportunity for my online classes to do good :)

Sorry if I'm not as focused an look a bit sad in this video. It was all quite fresh at that time. I feel better now and already look ahead to new things coming up. I hope you are doing well and I look forward to seeing you in my next video.

Btw I will create a live video (or try to, I have never done it before) when the bundle goes live on the 6th Dec.

Stay joyful,
Romica
