Yesterdays Airplane Drawing
Hello Friends! Well, it’s now catch up time. I got home yesterday for Father’s Day, and had a great time with my Dad and my family catching up with them. Texas was really fun and relaxing. While i was half asleep on my extra early flight yesterday morning, i ended up drawing this picture. I think the original image was from an old Vogue cover. I also did a few more drawings on the flight; one of them isn’t done yet… don’t worry, i shall post it soon enough! How are you all doing today? i hope you are all doing wonderful ;)

Christian Lacroix Couture Inspired
Good Morning, Good Afternoon, and Goodnight. Well, today is my last day home. Flying out to Texas bright and early tomorrow morning, so I’m trying to tie up some loose ends today. This painting i did over the last 2 days. It’s inspired by Christian Lacroix’s Spring 2009 Couture Collection. I took the design of the finale dress and made some slight changes. I think Christian Lacroix is incredible; so colorful and fun. I really hope you like the painting! Have a great day, friends! :)

The Count Down
Happy Sunday night! Well my friends, was it just me or did this weekend crank like lightning? For some reason, i was in a clothes designing mood all weekend, so needless to say, i have croquis scattered all over the room. The next few days are going to be hectic. It’s the few day count down, cause I’m flying out to Texas Wednesday! It’s going to be really fun. I just have a lot to figure out in the next few days. The Drawing today is of Lily Cole From my Character Sketchbook. I hope you like it! :)

The Guest Writer Part 2
Dearest fans, watchers, readers, lovers, writers, painters and animal friends, Danny and I are back in collaboration and having a marvelous time in his studio once again. We have rummaged through cupboards to find Italian cafetiers to make extra strong coffee, of which one sip is enough to send the synapses skyrocketing. We have made breakfasts, second breakfasts and brunches. We have played hide & go seek with my painting and checked on a hummingbird’s nest – all the while listening to the background of birds chirping in the lawnmower filled air of a sunny Californian June. Meanwhile, I am on Twitter thanks to Danny; I am obsessed with Dorothy Parker thanks to a second hand bookstore in Sydney; and I have excruciatingly demented jetlag thanks to long air journeys and the aforementioned strong coffee. My boyfriend Jon has printed out the directions to get to Texas, we’re all drinking lots of water and debating whether peanut butter, lentil hummus and salsa is really a good combination (hey, it’s nice, okay!) Here’s to the Roberts family, who have welcomed me once again with the most unforgivingly open, generous and unfalteringly warm arms, that I am once again indebted to their hospitality. They are for certain a blessing, an “American Family” who thrill to the sight of me cooking asparagus, making crackers, and expounding the benefits of going gluten-free. I just love being here, the perfection is almost too good to be true, and I always miss them as soon as I’m gone. Farewell! By the time you read this I will probably have dust in my hair and the sun in my eyes….. Road map fluttering in the heat of the open window. I’ll be thinking of you all. Safe journeys to everyone! I must go pack! White Rabbits are calling me to New York!! — Sophie Go read Guest writing Post 1

In My Dreams
Hello friends! Well, i drew you all this picture tonight! i hope you like it. The clothes are a little something i designed. i’m hoping to make a few one-off collection with my friend Alice. The girl in the picture doesn’t have a name, she just shows up in my dreams every few years, just for a few dreams, and disappears. I really like how the drawing turned out… I’m hoping she surfaces in tonight’s dream. i will let you know if it happens! :)
