Just some portrait practice with these graphite and colored pencil self portraits in my sketchbook. Every time I use graphite, I remember how much I love this simple medium.

Quick raccoon sketch for a friend who requested this after hearing me say "everything is trash" in a rant. Trying to bring some lightness to a hard time.

Some days you wake up with a song in your head. Others you wake up obsessed with the idea of drawing jellyfish. So that's what I did.

Day one #smArtist #favorite flower. For me sunflowers always make me feel a little lighter. Quick graphite drawing in my sketchbook.

Trying to keep this mentality. #artsky

Books are expensive but because of my library, I have nearly infinite access. Not to mention all of the amazing programs I'm able to take part in thanks to them. Support your local library! #booksky #art

Trying to remember that making art when the world feels darkest is actually important and not a waste.
