Aaaaah!

Been a week since I moved, and I’m just now getting back into the swing of things.  Now to catch up on the MOUNTAIN of work that is the art intensive. WAIT FOR ME EVERYBODY.
In the meanwhile, new places mean new experiences, and I hope to record a ton of the new sights here.  VA has a lot of really beautiful areas, and I can’t wait to get out and do some plein air paintings.

I just received one of the most touching and humbling messages I have ever gotten in my life, and I got it from this lady - and as I am incapable of forming actual sentences in direct response, here’s a reblog.

(Two years and you’re doing art like this!! Good lord!!!)

Oh my gosh.  Jenna reblogged my art.  Now I’m the one that is speechless. I’m going to be grinning for days.

The Fairy Princess

Inking practice shamelessly inspired by this photo that has been going around tumblr.

Brush pens are so fun to use.

For a contest. Still needs a bit of work.

(Life) drawing of the sister during our travels.  She was chewing gum and completely engrossed in reading, while lounging on a hotel bed.

Then she got up and lived her life.  I did not. 

I just want to point out that drawing a person chewing gum is possibly one of the most infuriating experiences ever.  Well, almost.

Reblogging my art because tumblr juggling.
