97/177: “He loves me”

My husband picked this daisy for me. It is slightly broken from our morning hike but maybe even more beautiful this way. Revealing love and beauty with all if its imperfections. It is perfectly imperfect ☺️#the100dayproject

76/100 "All that and a bag of potato chips"
Ah, airplane mode. 😌A solid chunk of undisturbed creative time. Today's blind contour is from a picture I took while riding the G train back in March. This girl had it goin on! She really was 'all that and a bag of potato chips.' She radiated confidence, style and poise. She captured the attention of all the other riders. It was a wonder to watch.

This is day 66 of a #100dayproject I am doing with my pal @100daysofcollage I have challenged myself to 100 continuous days of blind contour drawings (drawing without looking). This has been a fantastic exercise in creating a habit around drawing. It has also been an awesome experience to see how my drawings continue to evolve with each day.

Practice makes perfect 👌🏻Paying close attention and taking note of the various textures on different leaves. This illustration shows a lemon leaf in the foreground and a primrose leaf in the background. 🍋🌷

Practicing my stipple technique #mondayisformushrooms #stipple #botanicaldrawing

In addition to taking a botanical illustration class, I just began an improv collage class. These two styles of art could not be more different! So far both are fun, equally challenging and deeply inspiring. Here is a pic from tonight's first class. Let make some art! 😜 #2017goals #neverstoplearning #makearteveryday #collage

So many dots, so much fun!! #stipple #botanicalillustration 🍃
