I'll be showing you how to draw some seriously emotive characters, and we’ll also be exploring ways in which we can learn to understand how others are feeling (spoiler: it’s really important!). NB: This episode is perfect for any young artists with big feelings!

Happy #empathyday all! Here's some suggestions for great recent #picturebooks that I've loved and are particularly relevant for today. All are sensitively written , accessible & definitely inspire empathy & work as both mirrors & windows

It’s Empathy Day so here are some beautiful words from Patrice Lawrence, a quote in We’ve Got This:
“It makes you think about… the people we don’t see, even though they’re very much there, who are trying to survive, trying to push their roots down, trying to exist.” #EmpathyDay

#EmpathyDay What's not to love? This is the bit where we connect, we see each other, we hear each other & we know in our heart that we are all doing the very best we can with what we have & we feel love. Developing the empathy muscle is what the world needs more than ever.

Empathy should be a prerequisite to rule.
If leaders can't put themselves in the shoes of the people they lead, feel their emotions and experience their woes, then they have no right to lead.
Please can someone tell this to our current government?
