#DrawRiotDaily August 2019
August - A month of community and taking a look at the inspiration around us. I am back from almost an entire month of traveling and so full of inspiration - colors, textures, compositions and a new sense of seeing people, places, online and home as a connected community. It is interesting how when you travel you can start to look at where and how you live in a whole new way. Since being part of an online community on Instagram I have felt closer to places far away because I


#DrawRiotDaily July 2019
July - A month of celebration, fun and heading west. For me and Chris July is a going to be a month of finding balance again... Life seems to just get more and more busy. We are getting back into running and eating healthier and I am using the Life Cycle app (You can see June below) to track where my time is going. I am also using Sleep Cycle to figure out what all the binge watching of TV is doing to my sleeping patterns and of course I am working on getting back into the st


#DrawRiotDaily June 2019
June - warmer days and some exploration and travel ahead! Where are the days and night going?

#DrawRiotDaily May 2019
May brought with it a bit of sunshine, lots of rain and an explosion of flowers ! I have been looking back across my sketchbooks and thinking about the explorations in color, form, an line I have done along with some of my drawing from life. I am realizing how much light specifically sunshine plays such a big role in my energy to create. This may sound a bit strange but I realize I spend way too much time inside where its dark, cold and stationary. I need to push myself out t


#DrawRiotDaily February 2019
A new month with a spark for our passions! I have been enjoying this new way of finding inspiration and playing with my supplies as well as experimenting with new colors! I have found that my art tends to follow the same vein of process and this has helped continue to push me in new ways which has been exciting. I have also started a journal practice. I am working on getting more consistent with doing this but the times I have stopped (usually on the weekend) and just wrote d


#DrawRiotDaily January 2019
A new year with new creative possibility! I have been thinking about what to do for 2019 for a while now, over the past few months I have had serious levels of crazy happening in my life along with my first ever creative block / all around burn out for all things creative and otherwise. I just stopped everything that I possible could and curled up into a tiny ball wanting nothing but silence and darkness. Obviously I had to keep some things going but if you have been here kno
