Swim

Happy Monday! Did you all have a nice weekend? We spent saturday morning catching up on chores and evening with friends playing poker (till the wee hours of morning) and eating yummy home made pizza. 

On sunday we went for a hike and spent a few hours at the pool (trying to burn some calories from saturday!). Since I started taking swimming lessons I have been completely obsessed with drawing swimming paraphernalia. Kick boards, caps, nose clips, swim goggles and pull buoys. The swim goggles one turned out quiet nice so here it is.

I wish you all a happy week!

Yellow Flip Flops

Did I mention I'm taking swimming lessons? I got to YMCA every tuesday and am slowly picking up on exhaling under water. It is so much more difficult than it looks! 

These lessons prompted a series of illustrations loosely based around swimming. Flip Flops were the first things that I drew. I love the multitude of colors and prints they come in and how comfortable and relaxed I feel while wearing them.
 
This illustration is based on my desire to paint magnolias on my favorite pair. I wonder if there is a place that does custom printed Flip Flops.
