Sunday Drawing

Sundays I draw digitally in church. I'm that weird girl with an eerie iPad glow on her face in the darkened space.

Craft Frenzy




Monday night I went on a craft frenzy. 

I had the idea for a few weeks to sew a doll for my little niece, and then yesterday the steps figured themselves out in my head and I worked all night to make this little doll.

I got so excited I took little dolly downstairs to show my roommates. And we hugged her, and took pictures and I may have excitedly yelled out, "I'm a toymaker now - I'M AN ELF!!"

Not bad for a first try at plush toys. Tonight I'm starting a second superhero inspired doll for my little nephew. I'll post a picture when it's finished.

Moving Forward



It's been a long time since I've blogged - over a year! But I stumbled on it again recently, and I realized how much writing it helped me stay excited and accountable about finishing projects, so this year, the blog is coming back! (and I'm excited about that) For me, it means taking more pictures, making more projects, and paying attention to the small, interesting things in my life. For you, if you decide to read it, it means checking out my art and other creative projects, and probably some kid artwork, and maybe even a funny story or two.
