Whew. It’s been a busy week. As most of you know, I started a new job on Monday and so I’ve been a bit remiss in my blogging and designing lately. I guess I’m still in transition–going from being on my own very loose schedule to a regular, 9-5 schedule is pretty jarring. I’m really glad to be working again, but it’s definitely going to be an adjustment.
Today I kind of forced myself to play with Illustrator and design something–anything, really. It would have been much easier to sit in front of the TV and let myself slip into a vegetative state, but I reminded myself that I really don’t have the luxury of being lazy anymore when it comes to my art. So somehow it popped into my head to draw a little girl and here are the results so far:
I took a lot of inspiration from the candies I picked up at the Asian food grocery. Not sure whether or not this little girl will have a full body, or will remain a slightly ghostly disembodied head.

Wow that is seriously adorable! I commend you for not succumbing to that vegetative state
That is so what I would have ended up doing! Can’t wait to see what she lands on – might make a cute mini journal??
Aw, so cute! I haven’t ventured into drawing people yet. You’re a brave soul. lol. Can’t wait to see the finished product! (and kudos for not being lazy. I’m trying to make the same changes myself. It’s not easy!)
