Welcome back! I have a bonus drawing activity from Apple. While it’s focused on the iPad, you can do it with a pen and pencil too.

I’d love to see what you create.

Content: Social mindset

I've gained more management responsibilities recently and so my curiosity is naturally drawn to how to manage people. While each point on its own is interesting, It made me think about how some of these aspects affect each other. After all, Social learning is possible when you have trust (otherwise people don't want to be exposed. Likewise, when we have a clear goal, it can guide our work practices and what we learn.

Style: the head header

I saw this interesting style from Eleanor Beer who recently appeared on the sketchnote army podcast. I liked the use of a head to hold the header so I decided to recreate it myself in procreate.

The process was very simple in procreate, I drew a head, then erased a bubble in the centre. With the space created, I wrote the title and then used an airbrush on a layer underneath to add some colour.

If I were doing this with analog tools, I'd start by writing the title to make sure I could get the head around the whole thing.

Bonus: Draw yourself as a peanuts character

Here’s my version.

Make your own and I’d love to see it.

What do you think

I hope you are enjoying this new style and format. Let me know any feedback you have and any suggestions to feature next time.

See you soon!
