August 2020 update

I'm not writing much these days but it's because I've been drawing a lot more!

Over the past couple months I was working on a series of illustrations that describe the things that helped me move forward in my career search (and more fundamentally, self-discovery): "Advice I wish I had" in my late teens / early 20's). In the near future I hope to start another series that explore emotions (one of my favorite topics to think about and talk about, so I thought I'd draw about it too). This will be a fun one.

One huge improvement over the past year or so (that I'm likely the only one who cares about, but I'm broadcasting this to the world anyway): When I first started drawing my not-quite-stick people, it took me over 50 tries to get a nice circle for the head. Now it takes me around 5 tries; less than 3 on my good days. Practice makes... maybe not perfect but pretty close!
