First relaxing day in waaaay tooo long. Took the opportunity to do some urban sketching while relaxing on the beach 🏖 with my other half 😊 #urbansketching #watercolor #koiwatercolors #pigmamicron #sakura #artistsoninstagram #practicemakesprogress #havefun #lighthouse #huntingisland #beaufortsc #beach #relaxingsunday #family

Well, since I can’t be @comic_con I can at least show them some love by wearing my Mouse Guard tee! Maybe next year I’ll actually be able to attend - top item on my list: a toned paper commission by @mouseguard himself!! #mouseguard #sdcc #oneday #fan

Finished! Super fun! #starwarsart #drawwhatyoulove #havefun #retirementgift #sandtrooper #starwarsdrone #starwarsfan #starwars #artistsoninstagram #watercolor #pigmamicron

Second attempt at #urbansketching in public 😳. Flight was delayed so I had no excuse not to do it....Drawing with ink first instead of pencil is so intimidating! Lol. Also, did I mention how much I dislike drawing in public...?!? #practicemakesprogress #enjoytheprocess #inksketch #koiwatercolors #sakura #pigmamicron #savannah #airportdelays #starbuckscoffee #artistsoninstagram

3rd night in a row for sketch practice! This one was only about 25 min so about half the time of my last two, but I’m super stoked to have gotten something done vice nothing at all. #koiwatercolors #practicemakesprogress #sketching #sketchbook #sketch_daily #practice #artistsoninstagram #drawwhatyoulove #havefun #enjoytheprocess #enjoythejourney #lunalovegood #ravenclawpride #wizardingworld #harrypotter

Uh oh...two nights in a row...#sketchbook #practicemakesprogress #koiwatercolors #sakura #pigmamicron #practice #sketch_daily

Finished sketch. I’ll add my stamp to it when I get home this weekend. #urbansketching #practicemakesprogress #pigmamicron #waterbrush #sketching #sakura #koiwatercolors #spartanrace #bucketbrigade #spartansprintcharlotte

Doing some #urbansketching inspired sketch practice at the hotel this evening. Ink only to sketch then watercolors. Took about 45 minutes from a photo reference on my phone. Excited to keep practicing and start sketching places/events/people from life. #practicemakesprogress #pigmamicron #koiwatercolors #waterbrush #sketching #spartanrace #spartansprint #bucketbrigade #artistsoninstagram

Re-reading this amazing book as I work to overcome Resistance...it’s a tricky little bugger and continues to plague me in so many ways.... #thewarofart #stevenpressfield #overcomeresistance #selfmastery #onestepatatime #dontletitgetyoudown #getbackup #artistsoninstagram

Quick practice sketch this morning...took about an hour. It’s not perfect but not too bad for a “speed” portrait, lol. #practicemakesprogress #isupportkellymarietran #portraitdrawing #rosetico #starwars
