All these tips you've shared about sketchbooks are extremely valuable, I will restack this to have them reach other people

And regarding the phone-free time, I have started to leave my phone in other rooms for a couple of months now and disabling all social media notifications as well. I've started noticing what you mentioned: I've regained time. I have been able to focus more and experiment with my art a lot more. Getting rid of the noise (much like Juliana Salcedo's latest post: https://substack.com/home/post/p-162248999) is the right answer.

Thank for sharing, Vester! Yes, that’s precisely what it i! So. Much. Noise. Glad that to hear you found a way to regain some of that time.

So, so good!! I’ve been practicing something similar since I first saw a post of yours about this and it’s been so great! I’ve found less interest in scrolling social media and more excitement in opening my sketchbook! I also delete the Instagram app off my phone for most of the month so that the temptation isn’t even there. Love all that you have to share!
