Dear Readers,
Hooray! Week 2 in a row! Let's see if I can keep this roll going! :) Currently I am trying something new where I am attempting to go 12 weeks painting at least a line every day. I based this idea off of several things- "Not a day without a line." Originally attributed to Pliny the Elder but made famous by Vincent Van Gogh in his letters to Theo. I also read The Artist's Way by Julie Cameron, and while I did the morning pages, I want to do 12 weeks of painting this time. So far this has been fairly successful ( I am only on day 4) because it gets me into my studio to paint that line. Then once I am there I get engrossed and keep going for a good 20- 30 minutes. Hopefully this keeps up. Do you do anything similar? Thanks for visiting! Check out the other WOYWWers!
A blog about my (mis)adventures as I try to make it in the world of illustration.

Shoes and Flowers- WOYWW # 16
Dear Friends,
I know. 2 months. What was I DOING?!?!?! Can I just say I missed you all? But Wednesdays are now my CRAZY day, working 6 hours straight with 1. 25.minute.break. (In which I run around like a crazy person getting ready for the next 3 classes). Sigh. I come home wiped. SO I have a great new plan where I prepare my pictures/ect. on Sunday, and then post on Wednesday. One click and it's posted. It's a great plan, but in case you haven't noticed, I'm a world class procrastinator. Something to do with being creative...I'm very creative at postponing things! So we'll see how it goes. Anyway, I present to you, work from the last two months! I really have been busy artistically, drawing at a botanical gardens near my house nearly every single day. And visit some other wonderful WOYWWers!
This is my workdesk currently:
An image from my botanical garden sketches. I'll post more next week!
Thanks for catching up with me!
