Sorry Nessie, the Loch Ness Monster, I think the Himalya's Yeti has replaced you as my favorite mythical creature. I'm currently working on a 12 month calendar mock-up and have decide to make it a "Yeti's Backpacking Adventure!" I don't think I've had this much fun on a project in a long time. It's 1:30AM and I don't want to fall asleep. Must draw more Yetis! Okay, break time over. Yeti, here I come!

Sleep well Night Owls! 

This is the start of my summer quarter and I must say that I'm quite excited! [1] I even ate an entire Thin Mint sleeve to increase the sweet ideas. It's only been the first week and I have a noggin filled with Calendar, Wrapping Paper, and Greeting Card designs! One word: Holidays! 

[2] Here's a sneak peak to my next 10 weeks. All I have to say is be prepared for lots and lots of cute. Think cotton candy galore. Brace yourself!

I've been looking through oodles and oodles of inspiration and have set my eyes on one particular eye candy shop. I have been scavenging through all and any illustrators represented by the Lila Rogers Studio. All these artists are absolutely talented. One of my many favorites has to be the lovely Helen Dardik. [3] I think she won my heart with the constellation piece. As an amateur stargazer I always love anything involving the night sky. Her sweet Etsy store can be found right here.

Oh goodness, I just realized that I have written more today that I have ever before. I think I might make this blogging a more regular thing. Now I must be off on my [hopefully] weekly inspiration hunting. I think I might end up with loads of cheap chalkboards for my presentation on Monday. Kitschy is never a bad thing for me.


Have a lovely day!
