Some cherry blossom nails for Miss Kenzie Kraebber over at Tattooed Southern Belle! I know, they look like Arizona Green Tea Cans.

New life updates!

SO! This always happens to me. Does this happen to anyone else? Anyone?

So, I move here to Asheville and I am *gasp* unemployed. I can't remember the last time in my life I was....unemployed. That word alone makes me feel like I have to go in desperation mode and start saving my pennies for dinner. Ok, I tend to over exagerate.

Anyways, my job situation has finally panned out! I'll be working at the coffee shop at UNCA and I'll be doing freelance and a bit of inhouse design for a local print shop!


Hooray! So if anyone was wondering if I'm doing ok,
I think I can say that I am doing pretty great.


Also, there is more coffee here than you can shake a stick at. So much of it. I am in heaven.

Strawberry Earrings

Found something in an older sketchbook that I acutally kind of like! It's probably the strawberry earrings.

Been venturing into gouache a little bit. Acrylic has been good to me but I need something washier that I can get finer lines with. Gouache seems to be the answer! And honestly....the materials are cheaper and seeing how I am in a new state with like...no money, THAT is pretty convenient :)
Now....to buy frames. Seems I'll be going to IKEA soon!
