Hello Louise, I just recently discovered you on YouTube and I’ve been watching your videos and reading all your newsletters since. I find everything you publish very interesting and soothing. I can relate to what you say a lot, especially regarding hyper sensitivity and burnout. I wanted to ask: have you published the course on abstract watercolors you were talking about in this post? I’m really interested in it but cannot find it anywhere. If you haven’t, would you mind sharing the resources (books/courses/videos) you used when you started practicing abstract watercolor? I’d really need something like that. Thanks a lot and sending you my gratitude and appreciation from Italy!

Hello, Louise, such a joy to read your a new email from you.

First of all, I am screaming my lungs out that you read Amanda Palmer now. This book is essential to my life, I am not kidding. I have a huge memory piece stored forever in my memory how I went to the US in 2014 for the book launch. And met Amanda. And my book is signed. And I preach this book to every one.

Also I started reading Cal Newport yesterday, Digital minimalism one. I had it on my list for ages. But finally decided to give it a go. Speaking about being on digital drugs, many people in my country are on news drugs now. Likes are not that much of a thing now, but news are. And I swear it does even worse things with one’s mind. Because likes at least pretend to make you feel good, news don’t. I hope this book will help me with narrowing my digital world intake. Even though I absolutely love my connections with real people via digital instruments.

So sad about the podcast, but I hope you will get back to it some time soon. And yeah, doing duo shows with conversations is easier as I have heard then solo ones.

How are birds in your parts?

I woke up early today and I am supposed to be picked by my friend and we will go to a field in a city where we are supposed to find a lot of birds and dirt. My binoculars are ready! Coffee is also the imbibed:)
