Delaware Wanderings

It started out rainy and miserable, 
But God let the rain cease and the sun broke through,
Britney and I stumbled across a Delaware state park and spent some precious moments by the lake and in the woods.
Stairs formed by nature's arms.
Something about water is so soothing.
Moss appreciation. 


Nature's carpet. 
WE MADE IT
My single goal for this year.
I could listen to the ocean all day.
I look at this tiny, tiny shell, and wonder how people could say there is no God.
Things like this don't happen on accident. 
It was terribly, terribly, hard to wave goodbye.

Oh, there's something about the feeling you get
when your soul feels full to the brim.

This is my happy place. 

Homework assignments

I haven't updated in a while, so here's two weeks of art homework!

Well...okay, the puppy I just did for fun.

Copying Calvin and Hobbs style assignment- so fun and relaxing.
I was shaken up after my interview for work, I sketched this once I got home and thoroughly enjoyed inking the thick lines...perfect way to bring myself back to normal.
(And still can't believe I have a job now!)

It doesn't show well in the picture, but I drew her on tan paper, and it had such a simplistic beauty to it, without color.

She's now fully colored and ready to be handed in!

I was given multiple portraits to draw, including a self portrait, but I decided it's quality, not quantity. 
I'll do my portrait next week, so it's not rushed!
