Day 9: Carrying Sacred Connection Forward

9 Days of Wild Creative Connection

Well, my friends, it has been an honour. I have adored bringing you these wild-love scribbles, and the connection that honouring them, seeing them, brings.

This last day we go over the double page spread and make a few adjustments, and then you get a preview of the making of this gorgeous Bornean Orangutan and her babes.

Spoiler alert - all the same process is used, just with more time and repetition of seeing, adding value and detail, and seeing some more.

As we complete our 9 days together, we focus not on ending but on consolidation and implementation - weaving these practices of presence, connection, and reverence into the ongoing tapestry of your creative life.

🌿 Today's Reflection: Like a tree adding rings of growth, each moment you spend in your sketchbook builds upon all that came before. The deep observation, the wonder, the connection you've cultivated - these aren't separate from your daily life but integral parts of how you move through the world.

Your sketchbook practice is both a sanctuary and a seed - a place of refuge and renewal that grows new ways of seeing, being, and connecting with the wild world. As you continue forward, know that each page you fill strengthens these roots of connection.

🖋️ Gentle Invitation: Take time today to:

• Review your sketches from these 9 days

• Notice what's shifted in your practice

• Celebrate moments of connection

• Set gentle intentions for continuing

• Thank yourself for showing up

Remember: This practice is a journey without end, a continuous unfurling into deeper connection with yourself and the wild world.
