I tend to feel more energized, more industrious and therefore more productive as fall draws closer. I have to believe it has something to do with the feeling of starting school. 16 years of looking forward to the fall (I loved school) seems to be rather ingrained in my head.

I'm still kinda spread out between multiple projects, although each one is nearly wrapped up. I've finished a small english/macedonian number book for our friends who just had baby. It was a major departure from what I usually do, as it was super cartoony. Very fun project though.
And I've started attending another watercolor workshop on the beach. Small class, great instructor, very excited for the outcome. We had a model come in during the first session, which was a really great way to just dive right in.
I know what you are thinking.
"Wait, is that a picture on this blog NOT taken by a phone?"
Yep, I finally bit the bullet and purchased a scanner. (A real scanner, as opposed to the document scanner we have for office purposes.) I am still calibrating the color output and tweaking all the individual settings, but I love this machine. Will be eating ramen for another two weeks to make up for the cost but I think it will be worth it. And hopefully soon, I should be able to start creating quality prints of some of my recent work :)
