Welcome back to My Personal Art Academy — a series where I'm returning to the fundamentals of art through quiet sketchbook exercises.

In Episode 2, I'm exploring shapes as a way to let go of perfection and rediscover a more playful, intuitive approach to drawing. Using watercolor and mixed media, I work through a collection of simple sketchbook exercises designed to strengthen observation, simplify forms, and enjoy the creative process again.

If you've ever felt stuck, overwhelmed by details, or afraid of making imperfect drawings, I hope this video inspires you to go back to the basics.
