Day 68 - Be Different

I was at my friend's house tonight and we got into a great discussion about taking inspiration, and then doing your own thing.

On my way home I did some thinking, sometimes it's hard to put yourself out there and truly do your 'own' thing - in fact, it can be downright scary. Like when I started posting my drawings for the world to see. For me, it's like baring a bit of my soul. Even on the 68th day, I still get nervous pushing 'Publish' and then posting to Instagram. But on the whole, this exercise has been an amazing adventure.

So, I give you, 'Be Different.'

Day 64 - Stitched Floral

Brought to you by Alexei Murdock and the 'Away We Go' Soundtrack. I think this pattern was inspired by the ambience of the last scene of this movie - so gorgeous.

Sketch a Day - Day 14

Perhaps it's the frigid temps in the Ohio Valley, but I needed to try something a little more floral...
