Almost There

Sooo...been doing a lot of packing recently for my move back home over the summer break. Sometimes I just wish I could stay here until the next semester starts up again instead of looking into storage units and flights back to CA. I miss my family loads, but still, I'm completely worn down from everything that's happened recently and wish there was an honest-to-goodness break.
Since my outfits lately have been essentially tees with shorts (it stops the bf complaining about wearing "granny dresses and cardigans" anyhow XD), here's some sketchy stuff I've been working on.

These are some watercolor 3-minute gestures we did in class (the model was awesome):




 

Rough sketch for my sis:

    I hope that things get better for you, Rachel; and that everything is okay. One thing I know for certain is that your art hasn't suffered...these pieces are exquisite! :)

    the last sketch is SUPER adorable! I love it.
    I can't imagine having to pack everything into storage at the end of each year and move back and forth. must be so annoying!
    I hope you get to enjoy your break!

    Chic on the Cheap

    You are so very talented. I love all of your drawings, but these watercolors may be my favorite. They look so whimsical! And moving and packing sucks. I hope you get everything done in a relatively stress free way!!! xoxo
