@TfL Is mask wearing on buses enforced? I just got a bus where I was the only person wearing a mask. I know some people are exempt but it seems unlikely that everyone apart from me was exempt. If buses are full of unmasked people it would put me off taking public transport again

With her light brush strokes and pastel colour palettes, Illustrator @EmmaBlock shows us how to paint the loveliest lemon branch 🍋 Head to our website to learn how to bring a little summer bliss to a blank page. papier.com/thefold/articl…

@marloesdevee Same! I’ve been trying to avoid checking twitter too often because it affects my mood negatively

@neilswaab Hi! I’ve worked on bookcovers before and I would love to do YA book covers emmablock.co.uk

@thatkat @TheBoyWhoBakes They look amazing! 👀

I just reviewed @EmmaBlock’s new book “Get Started With Gouache”. It’s absolutely delightful! #art #illustration #gouache

@CrankCuffin @Braunteaches What a lovely paint set! I use my grandpa‘s sable brushes. Winsor and Newton sable really are built to last

@Braunteaches @EmmaBlock Here's the corresponding paint box - it was my Dad's. I refilled the pans using colours recommended by my "Uncle" John Lidzey who wrote watercolour books for Collins. The brush was my Grandma's.

Trying to paint what I see. Not realistically but accurately and in an illustration style. @EmmaBlock inspired me.

@jessicaasims Good luck!!

I put an offer in on the most perfect flat tonight. I’m hoping and praying they say yes as it’ll be the BEST birthday present ever.

@JaneToft I hate raw bananas, but can eat them cooked or frozen. Banana bread and smoothies are both fine, I think it’s just the texture of raw banana that I hate

Am I the only person in the world who hates bananas? They’re in nearly every smoothie and just the thought of banana bread makes me 🤢!

Three years later. Still heartbreaking. Still 56,000 people living in buildings with Grenfell-style cladding. Still no #JusticeForGrenfell

I worked with @loopymango on this lovely design, which is now available as greetings cards and notebooks through their website. For the month of June they will be donating all net proceeds to @nc100bwinc loopymango.com/collections/ha…

@rw_studio_ @DapsDraws It really isn’t.

@DapsDraws @EmmaBlock Only have to look at the board members. 5 though 😭😱 just not good enough.

@leejacqui I’ve got no problem with doing a sample if it’s paid. I’ve done that with a lot of book projects.
