Fall protrait

Few years ago I was experiencing life on my own far away from family and friends in Canada. 

Fall, my favorite season, was finally there. I felt like drawing a little portrait of myself walking down park alleys in a comfy, comforting outfit looking forward to what surprise this country was getting ready for me.  Last year it felt right to draw the same thing excepted I was then looking back on my experience on the other side of the ocean. And what of this year? Well, yet another year has past, my hair went from butt-long to cheeks-long and even though futur is still quite a mysterious thing to me, I now can say I'm real happy right where I am. 

Lucky me!

Cloudy - Process

This little cloud lady was made with water color and pencils. I've wanted to play around with softer color for a while and this illustration was a fun way to explore and test things!
She look a lot like a cloudy version of another of my illustration: "Moon". 

2019-

A late post about the beginning of 2019.

Starting with frost and well deserved comforting warm snack.

Followed closely by the pleasure of snowy morning and long walk in the wood fogged by that etheral feeling a slim layer of snow can bring to any landscape. February is always a bit though on the mood, short days, low light, grey sky... A great combo to feel pulled down. Obviously a good ol' colorful breakfast is quite a great spell to ward off moodiness.

When finally March arrive and flowers starts to bloom all over the place, it's a tad too late; the moodiness has set it's flag upon your back and you gotta cast some more shinny breakfast spells and walks in the flowers before it finally accept to leave you alone until next winter.

Weird thing in all of that? 

I always miss the winter once it's gone.
