❤ WEEKLY SKETCHDUMP ❤ // 2018 is the year of trying new things!

Hello there! ^o^/

Hope your Monday is going well so far~ I had a refreshing weekend and am ready to work hard this week. :D I don't have any specific art goals for 2018 other than to continually experiment and try new things. I've been playing around with traditional mediums such as gouache and acrylic, which has been such a fun experience. I'm keeping those pieces off the internet for the time ...

January postcard // Apple blossom~

Hello there! ^o^/

First of all, happy new year! I hope you're having a good 2018 so far and are able to find time to fill your life with moments of happiness~ It's exciting to have a fresh start in life, though it's also true that we can change at any moment. I wanted to try something new to celebrate the new year and explore different approaches to creating.

❤ WEEKLY SKETCHDUMP ❤ // everything is PINK

Hello there!

Hope your day is going well so far! ^^ It's funny how last week's sketchdump was an exploration of colors other than light pink and in this week's compilation it's an explosion of pink. I can't help myself, pink is such a fun and pretty color it's hard not to use it. :D

Hope you're doing well~ I've been getting back into the swing of things now that Inktober is over and it has been wonderful!

Well, we did it. 31 days of ink drawings throughout the month of October. It was an exciting, interesting, and transformative learning experience.
