Hello, little ant.

This mama’s brain needed some time to unwind tonight. Seriously full, long, good, and mentally exhausting day.

Sooo… I haven’t cracked this sketchbook since… fall. Even though my bones are telling me to draw! draw! I can’t get into the h.a.b.i.t.o.f.d.r.a.w.i.n.g. I decided to focus my month of August on developing the habit and registered for another course with Stephanie Fizer. Flourish (remember?) affected the path of my past year in good and unexpected ways (and I thought I just wanted to sell crochet handbags for fun).

At the very least, I hope to come away from this one with a confident drawing routine built into my every day and having identified my own style enough to develop it. (I have been experimenting for a year now – time to buckle down). I expect to be surprised again.
