Pumpkin Revised

Thank you ladies, for your suggestions. I've made a few changes. If you have any more tweaks, please let me know. I'm working on building a portfolio and a website, so I think I want this to be sharp!

October: And the Winner issss.........

Autumn is my favorite time of year. My favorite colors come out to play. Hollie Hibbert and I were talking and we both thought it'd be fun to do a October themed illustration! Ps. Thanks for all the tips on photoshop brushes! 

Friendly Giant

So my dear friends have been encouraging me to explore craigslist illustrations gigs, in fact Adam Taylor sends me links! (thanks!) Anyway, one called for this description, and I had such a good time doing the sketch, that I finished it. I didn't get the job, but I got a fun illustration out it!

Quick Fix

The poor mirror had fallen off before, so Mike had taped it together, but the hot texas sun is relentless!

Taking Notes

My Darling Husband is always finding cool and interesting things on the internet and then sends me links to 'em. One in  particular inspired me to change the way I take notes.  Its http://sketchnotearmy.com/. The basic principle is to take notes visual rather than a list of bullet points. Since I'm not going to seminars most of my notes are from reading the bible and going to church. Occasionally I'll take 

notes from an inspiring Ted Talk. (If you haven't heard of it, you should its awesome!! ted.com.) The cool thing is that it makes my notes more interesting and more memorable.... aaaaaand it keeps me awake at church. I wish I had done this in college.
