Not Quite Orange

birthday card


So I'll be the first to say this isn't quite orange, especially when the color on the pencil read "Poppy Red". But I wanted to share this little card I drew up to send to my aunt for her birthday. I've been drawing a lot of girls like this lately in my moleskine, girls with great hair and sweet treats. Partly because I made an appointment for an informational interview with an admissions officer at Art Center and they told me to bring along my work. Since I have no body of work to speak of, I started a sketchbook of cohesive drawings that reflected my current skill level. But mostly because they're cute and I'm obsessed with thinking about all the different ways I can dress them. It's like an adult way of playing with dolls. That sounds dirty, so I'll stop now.

How are your summers going, friends?
