CREATED BY AN ARTIST FOR ARTISTS
Record, reflect and grow with every piece you make.
Your future self will thank your current self (a lot!)
If you've ever tried to remember how you mixed a particular colour, blistered your brain trying to reconstruct how you achieved that really cool texture, or wrestled with the words for your artist statement, here's the tool that changes all that.
All artists make art, not all of them learn from their art.
The ones who do grow faster, build stronger bodies of work, and feel a whole lot less like they're starting from scratch every single time.
The best way I know how to do it? Write it down.

Recording

Next Steps
Reflection suggestions that can spark the next artwork idea before you go looking for it.
“I am seeking. I am striving.
I am in it with all my heart."
- Vincent Van Gough
Hi there!
I'm Tracey Hewitt,
As an artist I've been exhibiting and teaching for about as long as the Israelite's spent wandering in the desert to reach the Promised Land.
I've been described by people as 'the calm in their storm', the ballast that 'stops the ship from sinking' (flattering, hey?) and as being afflicted by 'weird hippie shit' (which might actually be the descriptor I'm most attached to).
I created The Artful Life Collective - a group membership for sharing art and creative life through virtual Art Dates and online community - for people like me who don't have close access to an artists group (or who just really don't like to leave home).
Ready to level-up your studio practice?
