journey series: four months in--

So I'm supposed to be doing my assessments for class-- kinda feels like finals season, but I'm sure we've only just begun college. Can't believe it's May!

Last week felt like holiday week-- It was the last week for my public transport pass and I wanted to use it as much as I could. It worked out perfectly because my friend's parents came from Indonesia and we acted as the amateur tour guides and found ourselves here:

Gorgeous photos from The Blue Mountains - Three Sisters.
(FYI, it was freaking windy and the cold was literally piercing through my clothes, it was fun nonetheless. )

can't believe how clear the skies were that day, sun was AWESOME.

just gorgeous.

Oh, and I just found out that a friend of mine's coming to visit in July! I AM SOOOOOO EXCITED! It's gonna be so much fun!!

journey series: snail mail.

over the time i've been away from home, i've received the most thoughtful letters and packages. if you must know, i am a sucker for snail mail. i love the idea of sending mail and packages the old school way. i love the post office, and i love the idea of a letter traveling a great distance to get into my hands. i do love "brown paper packages tied up in string"... and if i must sing the song upon receiving my packages, i would. i love time stamped across the postage on an envelope. the simple joys of opening letters just makes my day.

and today, friday the thirteenth, i received a sweet and thoughtful letterpressed card from another lovely friend from across the pond! L-O-V-E!

---- a selection of colored & b/w 35mm film for valentines day ----

---- heartfelt card and gift from one of my bffs ----

p-p-p-lanted.

Yes, it is a postcard sized painting of a tree. Might just be a gum tree as well. HA-HA. I'm gonna try to share my little itty bitty projects and doodles now and then-- and I'll try to post one for each day this week... if I get around to finishing the other one I'm doing now. Yay!

Artsyfartsy. So nostalgic, in some sense.

"drawrings"

plaque on his teeth: Barabas.

So I was coerced (ok, not really since I ended up happily and excitedly agreeing after...) into drawing for the kids program at church. They were 18x24 posters (issh) used for the Easter message... and honestly, I'm quite happy with how these turned out and I had so much fun drawing these illustrations! I just loved drawing on these posted on the wall. A little nostalgic of the few years back...

I've been painting and drawing a lot lately, and I don't even know how that happened... but it's been really relaxing, so I'm gonna roll with it. I'm starting to work on these little postcard sized projects, and I'll share them as I go along.

I'll probably post them on instagram as well as here... whee :)
