There’s something really special about coming back to the basics.
Lately I’ve been working on a set of illustrations for a client, and it’s reminded me just how much joy there is in slowing down and creating with my hands again. After spending so long in a more corporate space, where creativity often had boundaries, this feels like a breath of fresh air.
To now have the freedom to explore, experiment, and create work like this — and to call it my job — is a real ‘pinch me’ moment. It’s these quiet, in-between moments of creating that remind me exactly why I made the jump back to working for myself.
