Just in case you were under the impression that my desk always looks like it does in my bio pics...this is real. La Croix cans...breakfast plate that needs to go in the dishwasher...pile of papers...hair up and pjs still on because I had planned on working out...and my sweet Maggie who ALWAYS wants up when I’m at my desk. Happy Friday! 😂
💌Happiest of Valentine’s Day to you! I added a couple of mobile wallpapers to my IG stories and I saved them to my “PATTERNS” highlights too. 💌⠀ ⠀
Who else is ready for a tropical vacation about now? I’m at least ready for cold/flu/virus/general yuckiness to be over. For the first time in over a week BOTH kids are back at school at the same time. 🙌 Last week by the numbers: ⠀ 1 ER visit⠀ 2 pediatrician visits⠀ 2 calls from school nurses ⠀ 1 bottle of disinfectant⠀ 1 million loads of laundry (that’s an approximation 😉)⠀ ⠀ This pattern is “Shell Seekers” from my Sea Swept 🌊 collection. ⠀ ⠀ #surfacedesign #surfacepattern #patterndesign #artlicensing #licensing #illustration #pattern #textiles #textiledesign #printandpattern #textilepattern #fabricbytheyard #modernquilting #fabricdesign #organicfabric #momlife⠀
42/365 - sheep 🐑 - I was contrary again and drew a lamb instead of an adult sheep. I can’t believe that I’ve completed 7 weeks of daily drawing prompts. I also started MATS portfolio boot camp, I’ve been drawing a ton to use in an upcoming pattern collection AND some for art prints. This really has jumpstarted my creativity. I had gone a couple of months over the summer when I was finishing the three pattern collections in my portfolio and putting together my portfolio that I honestly wasn’t drawing at all - so this is a huge improvement. ⠀ #MakingArtEveryday #learntodraw #creativeprocess #creativefears #bardotbrush #calledtobecreative #drawingideas #procreate #illustrate #illustration #drawing #procreateart #procreatetips #procreateapp #sketchbook #illustrator #ipadpro #illustrationartists #applepencil #ipadart #behindthescenes #arteveryday ⠀
41/365: cat 🐈 - I have a quick cat sketch for today’s prompt. At 7 I wanted an orange “tiger” kitten so badly, so here’s my childhood dream kitten. ⠀ ⠀ #MakingArtEveryday #learntodraw #creativeprocess #creativefears #bardotbrush #calledtobecreative #drawingideas #procreate #illustrate #illustration #drawing #procreateart #procreatetips #procreateapp #sketchbook #illustrator #ipadpro #illustrationartists #applepencil #ipadart #behindthescenes #arteveryday

39/365: goat 🐐- I chose to draw a baby goat...and yes I know it looks a lot like a lamb, but it’s a goat - just trust me. 😉 If you like me struggle with drawing animals - check out @LisaBardot newest tutorial. It was SUPER helpful and I can already tell that it’s helping. ⠀ ⠀ #MakingArtEveryday #learntodraw #creativeprocess #creativefears #bardotbrush #calledtobecreative #drawingideas #procreate #illustrate #illustration #drawing #procreateart #procreatetips #procreateapp #sketchbook #illustrator #ipadpro #illustrationartists #applepencil #ipadart #behindthescenes #arteveryday
38/365- pig 🐷: moving on from dogs to pigs. I do NOT feel confident drawing animals so...it feels very vulnerable posting this. I caught myself worrying about what my feed was going to look like - BUT this is all part of this challenge - trying new things and trying to grow.🤞 ⠀ #MakingArtEveryday #learntodraw #creativeprocess #creativefears #bardotbrush #calledtobecreative #drawingideas #procreate #illustrate #illustration #drawing #procreateart #procreatetips #procreateapp #sketchbook #illustrator #ipadpro #illustrationartists #applepencil #ipadart #behindthescenes #arteveryday
