+ morning.snack.

3.21.2011


so it's been crazy here lately.
my new saying is, " a portrait a day keeps the sanity away." and it's COMPLETELY true.
this week i have to do at least 1-2 a day to keep up and i think my mind left the house last week.

so i've been drawing for awhile now,
and i've always found it to be so relaxing and so free...
well on the other hand, it's also physically and mentally tiring.
i've realized how much doing these portraits drains me and it's like i had a full day of work.
all the proportions, angles, tones, values...
wears your mind out without realizing until after you are finished.
don't get me wrong, I LOVE IT, and i'm grateful that i can work from home,
but i'm just finding myself very tired lately...
anyways, there's a lil update of me lately...

well i woke up to craving some tasty yogurt this morning.
i made a super fancy greek yogurt + honey + nuts + berries....
AND then i found the yogurt to be BAD-rotten-Gross,
total bummer,
well thankfully we had other yogurt left
so i made this.

fruit yogurt + toasted raw almonds + fresh strawberries = happier me.

and obviously landon and i have been on a strawberry high lately from all these strawberry
photos. remember from this post when i said i took photos of delicious cheap strawberries
landon and i found and that the strawberries were as large as apples?
well here's the proof.
thought i'd kill 2 birds with 1 stone and post the rest of these strawberry
photos to get them outta the way.

I'm a bit envious that you get to spend your days drawing. Do you have any tips for portraits in charcoal? I usually do mine in graphite, would love some advice.

Erica said...

Beautiful (and delicious) photos! Thanks for your sweet comment on my blog. The afro was always a dream of mine, so when a hair school friend asked that she could do one on me, I said yes!

I absolutely ADORE all of your photos you post! So incredible! What kind of camera/lens do you use? I'm lovin' all of that natural lighting! :)

Devin said...

Love those pictures! And I just love your font :) It's just fun!
I know what you mean about the portraits... definitely draining yet totally relaxing. So many feelings mashed up when creating artwork.
