I love this idea that the blank page is a surprise gift you give to yourself! Great way to reframe it. And Katie Vernon’s DIY prompt that you save for later in your sketchbook is brilliant!
I think it’s an interesting new way to restructure your newsletter! Especially if you’re able to invite a guest artist for each post who can share their unique way of tackling a common struggle. It wasn’t immediately clear to me while reading though, that this was how you were organizing your post. You may need to hit us over the head with this new framework with very literal subheads? For example, 1. Reframing the Problem of the Blank Page, 2. A list of Sketch Prompts to Help you Get Started, and 3. Meet X Who Shares Their Way of Approaching the Same Problem. Might be nice to have a short intro sentence at the top of the post that outlines Steps 1, 2, and 3 so we already have that framework in mind while reading. What do you think?
I’m not inviting as much as recommending, the way one might recommend a book, but I’ll be playing with how I do that, I do agree with the subheadings I’ll try that :)

What do you think of this new format of reframe, prompt, and intro?

I’m not understanding the “leftover paint blob.” I’m imagining hard and crusted paint in a palette 🤔 ?
Click the link and watch the reel, the idea is to create a shape to return. To later and make a face
