There’s no need for your desk to be dull though. Bring the sunshine indoors, and make your work space a bright & cheerful place that actually motivates you to work (instead of going back to that daydream with the sand beneath your toes!).

No, Chiji, you can do it! Use cheap paper for practice and don’t worry about wasting it. This is art practice–you deserve a couple extra sheets of paper! If you are really worried about waste, you can use scrap paper for practice (you can cut squares from old junk mail letters, the unwrinkled parts of paper bags, unused sheets of paper from old school notebooks, and so on)
