birdie friends


i had fun making these little guys this morning while looking outside at the cloudy-ness that is memorial day. i am a very happy girl though - it's my first day not working in a week and i finally have a chance to do some drawing (+ cleaning + packing). last weekend i was in milwaukee visiting the garofalo's and got to see mary go to prom and petey get confirmed. it was a lovely time! here's everyone... i miss them so!

i'll be posting more on etsy today... birthday cards and what-not. hopefully sometime in june i will have my cards at gracie*s on harwood ave in wawautosa. laura, the co-owner of jilly & george where i worked last summer, just opened in may after the closing of J&G and the space is adorable!

wednesday i'm heading home for about six days and absolutely can't wait for tess's pesto, mike's cocktails, annie's kisses and maxi's shenanigans.

tata for now!

a drawing a day

i'd like to try to do a drawing a day. a friend said to me when i was in a creative rut, "just do something creative, ANYTHING, for an hour a day. it's only an hour!" i've been trying hard to stick to it and it really does keep those creative juices flowing. so if you can't find an hour, 5 minutes will do.

here's a little sheep...

flame within a flame

watched eagle vs. shark yesterday and thought it was great. anyone who loves jemaine clement as much as i do should check it out, and loren horsley is adorable. i guess i gotta keep creating or else i'll just die.

looking forward to going home in 3 weeks to see the faces i love the most.
