Hurry!

I finally got motivated to play in my sketchbook. 

I sat down at my messy desk with visions of repetition and stencils bouncing around my head. 

Once the taste of Nerds had dissolved from my tongue, I noticed a horrible stench coming from the litter box. 

Seeing as how I'm now pregnant, little things like cleaning litter boxes have been taken off my to do list. And alas, my wonderful husband was outside mowing the yard and could not empty it out right then, so I had to relocate.

So I grabbed my sketchbook, 2 sharpies and my circle stencil and headed to the living room. 

I found this old page with acrylic paint I was using up and decided to draw on top of it.

It's not much, but at least it's something. Quite appropriate too for Illustration Friday's theme of Hurry, since it took me less than 10 minutes to complete!

Refresh

I recently went on a women's retreat through my church and the theme was 

REFRESH

They did such a good job planning it. When we arrived they had notebooks set out on the tables for us to take notes in during the weekend. And they also had scrapbook paper, tape, glue, and a few markers set out so we could each personalize the covers. 

I unfortunately arrived a few minutes late and didn't have the time to decorate mine with pretty paper. 

Luckily I never travel without a Sharpie!

I decorated mine as words spoke to me during the entire weekend.
