You Used to Draw Just Because You Loved It
Episode 375
Friday, 8 May, 2026
There's something that happens when you pick up a sketchbook with no plan. It's lighter, not so dang serious. And that's what this episode is about. It might be the most important thing you do for your art practice right now.This week, Antrese shares what's been happening inside her own Trust Challenge. What started as cafe sketching turned into filling pages with drawings of her dogs. Just because it made her heart full. Inside that simple choice lives one of the most honest examples of having your own back she's seen in her own practice: the small, daily decision to let some of your creative time be just for you.We also talk about where this kind of making lands in the Four Seasons of an Art Practice — and why it's okay (actually, important) when it doesn't fit neatly into any single season. If your practice has started to feel heavy, this one's for you. In this episode: You'll hear why drawing in ink — where you can't erase — is actually an act of self-trust, not bravery. You'll hear Antrese talk through the moment her Trust Challenge veered from the plan, and what she did with that. how the making that used to feel like play gradually picked up pressure — and how to find your way back to the version that didn't. You'll get practical tactics for sketching in public without making people uncomfortable How to treat yourself when you veer off your original plan — with curiosity instead of criticism.Want a place where your practice gets to feel like play and serious work at the same time?
