my love for drawing humans has returned!
OH HAI THERE. It's been another minute and a half since my last post. This spring has been quite the season of growth. I haven't shared much of what's been going on over the past 3 months, so I thought... since a picture is worth 1000 words, I'll do a little photo dump version of a journal post here on the blog.There's been so many blessings and gratitudes, I wish I could share it all with you but this post would be a mile long so I'll keep it to a nice little highlight reel for you.So grateful to have so much love and support all around for everything I've been up to lately... and I'm so so so excited to share all that I have in the works for the future as well.I hope you've all had a beautiful, blooming season of growth, too <3
