WELCOME!

Welcome to my new blog! After falling in love with blogging on my personal site, I knew I needed a spot for JUST my artsy fartsy (minus the fartsy) side. So, I will be posting things (both old and new) periodically as I draw doodle & dub them as done! So, to kick things off here is my most recent art



It is this weeks Illustration Friday challenge. The theme: INFLUENCE

I think this depicts one of young girl's most prominent influences. Growing up I thought my mother looked like the long haired version of Snow White. I loved her and being a child, wanted to emulate her. She was wonderful and let me beautify myself with her make ups and experiment with my own hair, which frequently looked less than flawless. But I love those memories of getting "dolled up" with mom on date night.

  1. This is adorable, and so true! Parents are our first influence, and we girls look to our mothers more so than anyone else...
