An artistic journey in Japan
Back in November 2023, I embarked on a two-week travel to Japan. My goal was to reset my approach to illustration, hoping this would help me overcome some long-standing little issues such as blank-page anxiety or the lack of inspiration that sometimes prevents me from enjoying drawing.
Out if this travel came five little vlog episodes I did about some of my little reflections on my journey as a designer so far, along with the illustrations that I created for each of them once back home. Hope you'll enjoy it!
In this 1st episode, you'll find out the why and how I came up with the idea of this travel!
How to find your own style?

In this 2nd episode, I'll be telling you about an inspiring study I read on different improvement approaches, as well as the broader questions on perfectionism that I came to ask myself from it.

In this 4th episode, we'll visit a beautiful garden in Kanazawa, to try and understand more on landscape design and how transferable it could be in illustration.

In this last episode, we'll go around in Tokyo for a few days, before heading back to Copenhagen. This is the final episode of this little series. Thank you SO much for following me on this little adventure. It was truly heartwarming and humbling to read everyone's comments and feedback on this series on my social medias 🙇♀️ I hope you'll enjoy this last episode in Japan!
The journey does continue! As a few days ago, I received the exciting news that my application to attend the Pictoplasma Character Development Academy in Berlin this May had been successful. So I guess, I'll see you there!
