me being forced in to nooks and crannies in a pretty great interactive museum in saint louis, had fun!
still in the museum
so i had an amazing, better than couldve imagined start to my summer, starting with two great friends in a little car from atlanta to saint louis to chicago for a day, back to saint louis and home to atlanta. not to mention some great run-ins with designs of designers i studied in school

inspired by... the lost finale


the lost series finale was yesterday and i had the change to watch it in a movie theatre in atlanta. it was a great experience. i'm not sure yet what i think about the ending though. too much connection to heaven, i think, which made it corny a little at the very end.

so coming back home to atlanta also means being reunited with my just-for-fun/for-me sketchbooks from back in high school that ive been wanting to post forever... 
here are very few of the things from the  5 or so sketchbooks from over the last few years theyre a mix of pen pencil watercolor and collage& the last 3 are last semester in the fall.
