Episode Description from the Publisher

SHOW NOTES: Pauline was once told by a teacher that she had no talent, so she walked away from art for decades. Then she learned to turn her doodles into repeating patterns, and one simple design of her little village became cards, mugs, and tea towels that drew a queue at her local fair. In this episode I share three truths about how one small doodle becomes a real product you can hold, gift, or sell, using the stories of three women who each started with nothing more than a simple drawing. If you have ever looked at your own sketchbook and thought your doodles were too simple to ever count, this one is for you. 👉 What You'll Learn: Why your doodle was never meant to be the finished product, and what it actually is The one learnable skill that turns a simple drawing into a sellable product How a single design can multiply onto cards, fabric, tote bags, and more Why artistic talent is not the thing standing between you and real products The one simple starting point every one of these women had in common ➡️ Important Links: Save your early-bird seat for the Fall Doodles Coaching Week: https://members.artwithanne.com/doodles Connect with me: Facebook: Anne LaFollette Art Instagram: @annelafolletteart YouTube: AnneLaFollette1
