Now you can eat your breakfast and draw it too! Enjoy this video about author and journal illustrator, Danny Gregory. I love to watch artists work. Never has a cup of PG Tips and an onion seed bagel been so yummy!

I agree — it takes me several hours and cups of tea before I can seriously begin anything. Love all the cool objects he has in his kitchen too.

I’ve been a huge fan of Danny Gregory’s work for years, especially his illustrated journals. Love the video and am eager to read his new memoir. I know the story of his wife and am amazed by his strength after her loss. He is a class act!

The video is wonderful, Jama. I have not thought to research Danny Gregory further. I have one of his books, An Illustrated Life, & love every page. I’ve shared it & used it with my students for both art projects & field journaling. I just did some more research & ordered one other book by him. Thank you so much!

I like his wall clock too — actually almost bought one for my kitchen but couldn’t find the right space. 🙂
