Remembering How 2 Draw, On the Commodification Of Making Art

Remembering How 2 Draw is a spontaneous, impromptu zine filled with raw pencil lines, playful spelling mistakes, and unfiltered creativity. It began on a whim during an art-making session with a friend named Starry and explores both the purpose of creating art and the ways it can be commodified.

The zine shares stories about the artist’s evolving relationship with making art—how it began, how it has changed over time, and what it means in the present. It reflects on what art offers to others and to the creator, weaving in antidotes, questions, ideas, and heartfelt sentiments.

Each page was created in the moment without planning, giving the zine a free-flowing, conversational feel—like sitting on the living room floor, trading thoughts and sketches with a friend. A perfect pick for readers interested in creativity, the philosophy of art, and the joy of making without rules.
