This Domestika Diary reveals her creative routine, and explores her day-to-day. Watch the following video:

Every day is different, because her routine depends on her current projects. She uses a range of materials including acrylic, satin paint, marker pens, digital media, colored and lead pencils, but watercolors have a special place in her heart.

As for formats, she works on everything from digital illustration, to medium sized works and even large-scale murals. She tends to start sketching out her murals in Procreate, then once they’re approved she transfers them onto the wall.

In addition to her illustrations, she also works as a singer, beatbox performer and rapper.

Fefa Cox loves being a freelance artist, because this way of earning a living allows her to organize her time and dedicate herself to her other loves: music, board games and spending time with her friends. She also enjoys stepping out into nature for a walk along the beach or in the park near her house.
