Like The Noonday

Remember how I said fear doesn’t get to drive?  Well I started a new adventure today.  I have been researching a company called Noonday Collection recently and have decided to join this fascinating fair trade company.  I know I’m not very good at sales (I’ve tried before…), but I am really excited to help support […]

Paris Restaurant Guide

  Oh Paris…  You were wonderful.  Beautiful views, spectacular architecture, and absolutely incredible food.  It should be, right?  I mean, Julia Child wouldn’t have totally changed the focus of her life after having your sole meunière if it wasn’t something truly scrumptious.  Traveling to Paris and watching Julie & Julia on the plane ride home […]

Travel: Experience Los Cabos

  Oh, Mexico, how I miss you.  My husband and I decided to take our slightly belated honeymoon in Cabo, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience there.  We went in mid-February, and the weather was absolutely perfect!  Of course, being on the coast makes the weather pretty perfect most of the time, but […]

Loved taking @bydylanm #skillshare class on the elements and principles of design!! It really helped me break down what I love about some of my favorite artists and illustrators like @janethillstudio and @madebyperrin 😍 All of you ladies are amazing!! . . . . . #surfacepatterndesign #patterns #patterndesign #illustrator #art #bydylanm #growing #design #style
Spent my flight to San Diego sketching 💕 I worked on my pasta for my #makeartthatsells assignment, but then found myself sketching flowers after filling up a page with little raviolis. Not a bad way to spend a flight! Swipe for my #inspiration photo. P.S. a Pilot V5 is my new favorite sketch pen. Thank you @bydylanm for that tip in one of your #skillshare classes!! . . . . . #surfacepatterndesign #sketch #flowers #flow #patterns #patterndesign #growing #style #art #floral #patterndesignwithbonnie #roosttribe #lifestyleblogger
MATS A assignment 1 is underway! I loved that one of the recommendations for the first mini was to make some pasta, so I did! After our cooking class in Italy, I feel like I know a lot more about making it. Now on to the drawing! #makeartthatsells #inspiration #pasta @makeartthatsells @lillarogers . . . . . #surfacepatterndesign #patterns #patterndesign #roosttribe #illustrator #MATSian #growing #art #lifestyleblogger #food #draw
My #artvsartist ... I have gone back and forth about posting this because I feel weird referring to myself as an artist (major imposter syndrome over here!). I feel like I am still working on creating a strong signature style for myself, but I’m starting to notice more and more what I really enjoy drawing and why I like certain designs of mine more than others. #growing
