Had a wonderful breakfast outside this morning, but it's getting humid now and I need to go get passport photos taken! 🇨🇦 The number 1 annoying thing about being a Canadian in the states is the process of getting and renewing your passport. 6-8 weeks to process and their photo rules are so much more strict than the American passport, so you need to make sure the photographer is following every specification to a T otherwise in 6-8 weeks after sending your application in you need to start all over again. 😞 Needless to say I've learned my lesson from the last time I had to get it renewed. . . . #ifdrawaweek #ifdrawaweek133 #moleskine #m_artcollection #moleskinearts #mysketchbook #micronpen (at New Britain, Connecticut)

Following through on learning “surface design” as those in the know call it. This one goes out to the jerks who think that I planted the strawberries for them. 🐿 This project was mainly about learning how to incorporate the tablet in the process. I’m finding every format, whether it be mere pen and paper, Illustrator on the PC or apps on my IPad all have their own limitations. I’m enjoying the challenge of figuring a way that works for me. . . . #surfacedesign #patterndesign #illustration_daily #illustration_best #chipmunks #strawberries🍓 #powerintheprocess #pixelmator #adobedraw #digitalpattern #spoonflower

This is where the drawing from yesterday started. Looks like no more arting outside for a while as it is now monsoon season and also back to work for me 😩 . . . #mysketch #mysketchbook #m_artcollection #molskine #moleskinesketchbook #molskineart #ink #linedrawing #blackandwhitedrawing #succulentdesign #succulentdrawing #jade #creativeuprising #createxplore #artist_sharing #visualartjournal #creativejournaling #createcultivate #createxploretakeover #drawdaily (at New Britain, Connecticut)

After spending way too much time on the computer today I managed to sneak in some drawing. Then I digitized it for practice and also because coloring in bed? Uh yea, I think so. I’m slowly figuring out how I can blend analog and digital in my practice 🤓 . . . #instaart #succulentdrawing #succulent #jade #illustration_best #illustration_daily #illustrationoftheday #illustration #plants #mysucculentobsession #ink #drawingaday #drawingoftheday #draweveryday #adobecapture #adobesketch #myart #digitalart
