moodboard inspirations

after downloading the moodboard app onto our ipad, i was so inspired :) this app is awesome-it allows you to clip images from the web, create color palettes, and put together inspiration boards for everything! love love love it!!

it is perfect for starting new projects or just keeping those pretty images all together. one of my favorite ipad apps for sure!

artist love: julia rothman

julia rothman is amazing. i love all her work and find her so inspiring. i discovered her work this last semester in my digital arts class while working on our pattern assignment. i was immediately hooked. i absolutely love her doodle, hand-drawn prints and the cute products and wall papers she creates.

missing art journaling

i miss art journaling. i haven't journaled since last summer after elsie and rachel's art journaling class (that was the most inspiring class i've ever took by the way). the other day i found my first art journal and took the time to look through it. each page is special to me and has such deep meaning. it is truely amazing how much feeling and expression you can put into one journal page. here are some of my most favorite pages...

now that it is summer, i'm really hoping i will have time to journal again. i do miss it so.

i will need patience.

i have decided to start growing out my hair. i haven't had long hair for about four years now (long time!) so i am going to give it a try. i usually give up around shoulder length since that is when i lose patience and can't stand it in "awkward" length. but i will give another go. i can do it. i can do it. i will just keep up these pictures to keep me inspired.
