Illustrationer, Illustrator, Illustrationist

My projects lately have been requiring me to draw more. It's good practice and crazy fun. My poor sketchbooks haven't been getting enough love, so it's a great challenge for me and I'm really enjoying it. I'm making a concerted effort to draw something every day, now. It's really helpful to be living with an great illustrator, too. Lemme tell ya, dailyhat is crazy talented.

For me, drawing takes a lot of effort for some reason. My sketches and doodles never look clean or quite right. But as soon as I get them into illustrator, things tend to fall into place. For a lot of people, I'm sure this doesn't seem like a problem, but for me it just seems like a reason to keep practicing. I don't want to keep saying, "It never looks like what I have in my head." So... practice makes perfect. So I'm sharpening my pencils.

I'll be sure to update. Here are a few new things.

Glitter Type & Bokeh Lights

My most recent (little) project hit the streets (read: web) today. Who doesn't love a little glitter type and bokeh action? Visit the site and see the sparkles in all their glittery goodness at www.benefitcosmetics.com. Pick yourself up some Cabana Glama or BADgal mascara while you're at it.

OH! Not part of the sale, but they're real! mascara will change your life.

It's a SALE-abration! TREAT YOSELF!

I'm old.

My little brother is heading off to college on Thursday.





I remember riding in the back seat of the car with my little sister on the way to the hospital to meet him for the first time. It was during a blizzard. Dad was driving. I heard my dad call someone who cut us off an 'asswipe'. That guy fully deserved it. That's the only swear word I've ever heard my father say (unless "daggumit" counts.)

Enough about that. The biggest baby I'd ever seen is now the tallest little brother I know. Also, the funniest, smartest, and most ridiculous-est.



For a send-off gift I made these. Even though he knows that if he ever needed anything he can call me anytime, he's got the added option to text any of these coupons to me during the semester. He seems to like them. :)

Best of luck Bre!! Love you.

Petaluma - Horse Country

Sunday Funday! Miss Kay and I met friends out in Petaluma this weekend for a horse show. Horse country in California is gorgeous. Kind of like seeing a riding competition home in Georgia, but with mountains in the background and miles and miles of farmland.

Springtime, maybe.

March was a crazy month and April seems like it's sure to follow. Springtime is here (I think) and it looks a little something like this. Well, for me anyway.

Minty Goodness

My love for green is just about an obsession. There are touches of it all over out sweet little studio but I have a feeling mint and aqua are going to start playing a bigger role in the decor around here. Even if that just means my closet.
