Illustrated New Year Love


This evening, despite still feeling somewhat sickly, I ventured up to my studio to take a peek of the work currently on my desk. Initially, it felt a tad overwhelming to see my current projects slowly piling up. Thankfully, I have wonderful customers who have been more than understanding and supportive of me being ill this week. Otherwise, this girl would be a bit more stressed out at the moment!

One of the projects I've thoroughly enjoyed doing these past few months is a hand-painted calendar for a sweet customer who lives in Canada. Sadly, January will almost be over when her darling 12-month calendar arrives but she's still delighted at each month's illustration designed just for her.

I'm off to rest a bit more this evening in hopes I'll be up and about in full force tomorrow. The mister will be home in a bit so am looking forward to his arrival and having tea. Thank you so much for all of your lovely get well wishes. I appreciate each of you.

  1. Oh, that is going to be a lovely calendar! It's interesting how our bodies make us take a break to recharge and practice self-care. How wonderful that your customers are so understanding as you take this time to let your body rest. I hope you're healthy and back to creating very soon!
