more paper-cuts



I've been trying to do little art projects as I get settled into this new place. They've ranged from sketchbook watercolors to paper-cuts to little sewing projects. These are a couple I had done when I first started out. The "C" cut was a card for my sister (that I have yet to send) and the impatiens were cut from drawings I had done when I was at my parents in Florida. 

At my parents in Florida. I no longer live in Florida. I keep having to tell myself this. It's incredible how life has progressed since my graduation in April. Ever since I was little I've wanted to live in North Carolina. I use to dream of having the kind of job I now have, but never believed it was really possible. Things I've always wanted are starting to fall into place. However juvenile this may sound, I'm so incredibly astounded that my wishes are coming true.

charlotte drawings




I have now been in charlotte for 6 weeks. It's insane to think about and time is just flying by. I just bought an Epson scanner, so I'm going to be catching up on all the drawing and paper cuts I have yet to post. The first drawing was done while on a turbulent plane ride back home. I moved my junk up (with the help of my wonderful parents and sister) after living in a hotel for 2 weeks. The second was my private 4th of July celebration. What better way to celebrate America alone than to go to the mall and have chinese food?
