In the first episode of 2026, Victoria reflects on easing back into work after the holidays and the role of routine, patience, and self-trust in rebuilding creative momentum. She shares openly about returning to the studio after time away and how honoring both rest and structure supports a sustainable art practice.
Victoria discusses her January drawing challenge and the powerful impact daily, low-pressure drawing has on reconnecting with flow, releasing perfectionism, and sharpening technical skills. She emphasizes the value of prioritizing studio practice before career goals, encouraging artists to reflect on what they want to make, revisit, pause, or explore this year. This episode invites artists to begin the year by grounding themselves in practice, curiosity, and alignment, trusting that clarity and momentum grow from consistent, intentional presence.
