In this episode, I speak with artist, illustrator, and author Samantha Dion Baker, whose work has inspired thousands through her books Draw Your Day, Draw Your World, and most recently Draw Your Adventures. We discuss the evolution of her creative practice, how she reignited her love of drawing after years in the design industry, and how she built a sustainable, joyful approach to daily artmaking.
Highlights from our conversation include:– Returning to art after years away and starting small– Choosing simplicity over overwhelm when selecting materials– Building a sketchbook habit that supports creative and emotional well-being– Turning a personal practice into published books and teaching opportunities– Navigating visibility on platforms like Instagram and Substack– Preserving the joy and purpose of making art in a professional context
This conversation is both practical and deeply inspiring for anyone looking to recommit to their creative work or reconnect with the joy of drawing.
