Adaptations







Here are more drawings from real life - this time experimenting with my tombo pen. The journal above is from the same natural materials. It is odd how we humans take things and make them "ours."

This little gnombe came out of no where. He said he was stopping by to bring flowers and water for the garden. What a nice little dude~

Office Supplies








There is something nostalgic and satisfying about office supplies. We can organize and get things done with them. They add color and pattern to our desk, depending on how we are using them. Here, I experiment more with my tombo pen.

Swimmer


I have been swimming a lot lately. Here, I experiment with textures and line quality of the tombo pen to give the moving flowing feeling that comes from swimming. I added pattern to her suit, too.

This is a character from Native Cultures. He came to me as I drew. He symbolizes strength and confidence in the face of doubt. I will keep is teachings in mind as I venture out further in life and I learn.
