Between work and the crazy weather, there hasn’t been all that much fun in the sun so far, but I am hoping that will change. I got a new boogie board! Here’s some summery snippets from the past few weeks. :)
Cloud gazing
I am always amazed by the shifting skies. Here are some faves from January.
Autumn colors
Been going on the most gorgeous walks lately. The foliage is finally starting to peak here. I just love fall. The colors and sky are amazing. Just wish it lasted longer!
experimental mediums
I've been playing a lot this summer--indoors and out. I have been tethered to the computer too much with the last two books and really want to find my way back to creating more by hand. All my illustrations are hand drawn and often painted, but the real magic happens once i scan into the computer. But I feel like i lose something by relying so much on the computer. I created this piece with pencil and watercolor and only used a teeny bit of PS to lay in some extra texture. It feels a lot more handcrafted to me with those irregular watercolor blobs and unretouched pencil marks. What do you think?
