You can...illustrations




It's been a while since my last post. Living in a city that never sleeps, I have discovered neither do I! Overwhelmed by what there is to do, you lie there thinking about all the things you need to do or want to do so you don't miss out. I have come to realise it is absolutely impossible to do it all...in this concrete jungle... A city that offers so much inspiration you are left wide awake with the sights and sounds that fly around your mind - and that is just from stepping out for an hour or so. Where there were days I may not have achieved what I had hoped for the day, I instead wandered and discovered new sights, new sounds, new smells and just enjoyed being apart of it all and living with it. Each day has brought some excitement no matter how small; I have not grown tired of seeing the empire state on my door step, or the smoke from the drains, or walking onto Times square, or the smell of hot dogs & pretzels on the corner... This city has made me feel at home, for that I have fallen in love with it just that little bit more. The dream became a reality, one where expectations had to be let go and where they once were had been replaced with situations and opportunities that went way beyond what I could have imagined. This city has allowed me to discover more about myself, challenge myself and live for myself. I love you New York...thank you, you have allowed me to discover a freedom I never deemed possible.

The above designs are a new style I'm playing around with at the moment...thought they would make nice cards - for Birthdays or just little note cards...

  1. I LOVE THESE! They would be great on their own or in a pack of notecards. Print some out and I will buy them!!!
