Hello all!
These photos are from our vacation! We stayed in a cottage near Minden and Halliburton, had wonderful weather, really makes us hate coming back here to the heat! Had a lot of fun hiking and boating and swimming...and eating ice cream. If you ever get the chance go to Kawartha Dairy, they have the BEST ice cream! I also did a lot of sketching at the cottage, so I will upload those soonish. I also still have a lot of photos to upload! Hopefully before school starts on Tuesday! Gotta pack up all my school stuff still as well. Where did summer go?
Keep your eyes peeled for more updates!

Farm Kitchen













Hello!
This is my new mural! I am pretty happy with how it turned out, I never want to paint a wood floor every again though. Oranges are surprisingly fun to paint! The cat belongs to a friend of mine, he looked like a standard barn cat so I used a photo I had of him! Used all acrylic paint. Click the pictures for bigger! I hope you enjoy the mural!

Hey!
Sketch dump today! I am obsessed with Doctor Who! I can't help that they are all so much fun to draw! Vintage photos are fun to draw too. We are going to the cottage this weekend and I am printing a lot of pictures out, so I will come back with lots of sketches hopefully! Maybe some watercolours too, but I have to go buy some more first!
I am going to take pictures of my new mural on thursday and will (hopefully) upload them thursday night before we leave. We shall see!
Enjoy the sketches!

Grobanitis

Guitarist, bald is fun to photograph XD



Hello!
I finally got around to uploading all these Josh Groban pictures!! I was busy for the past few weeks painting a mural at the University, but finally done that and can get caught up on all the photos and sketches from the past month!
It has been a month since the concert already...where did that time go? The concert was loads of fun! It all seemed kind of surreal though! Amazing concert though! Go see him if you get the chance! I took a whole ton of photos, but these are the best ones in my (and my mother's) opinion. I hope you enjoy! There are some more on my Deviantart page. Enjoy!

Light & Colour





Hello all!
Some more random photography! I am currently going through the 400+ photos I took at the Josh Groban concert...which was AMAZING! Still randomly giggling :3 anyways, I will eventually upload a bunch of those! For now you can look at this! I have been experimenting in photoshop more, playing with black and white and exposure and so on. Hence the horse and the bottom picture (you can decide what it is). I hope you like!
