It's Happening Again



Summertime is NOT my favorite Season. In fact, it's my most dreaded. I'm gonna go ahead and say that not only does it effect my hair, my skin and my over all enthusiasm, it effects my work too. Summertime has me at my most uninspired.



But, as we find ourselves in the last month (kinda) of full-fledged summer, I can see September on the horizon and that gives me much gladness. To finally crawl out of this ugliest of ugly seasons, and be able to drift into my MOST favorite - MOST INSPIRED time of year is giving me a rush of new life in my sketchbook!







It also helps when you're on a tight deadline and need a finished piece of artwork in a few short weeks too. But it's the blossoming of new breath in that piece that makes me feel hopeful and ready to roll...!!! ...can I get a hail-yeeh?

I always look forward to the summer - I think I like the *idea* of it, but then it's just hot and icky and blur!

Sketchbook looks a beaute! Wish I was a sketchbook kinda person.

What new pretty ladies you're working on!

I hate summer too :( for some reason it's just a more depressing time of the year. Maybe it's just because we love Halloween and Christmas so much and the summer has no fun holidays to enjoy.
