I work in about 5 sketchbooks at the same time (different sizes and types of paper) but I did finally finish this one! I did a flip-through of this one when I had only done the right hand page then I decided to just go ahead and do all the pages.
The artist with the cute paint blob characters is Julie Maggi and her etsy store, where I saw the little characters, is https://www.etsy.com/listing/10114644...
