Website Brainstorm Sketches

I must get heathersoodak.com running! I am designing it and doing some rough sketches for each page this one is for the bio page, and I was just thinking about who I am in these. Since my printer/scanner broke this copy is not as good quality but I will probably redo some of these anyway. More to come!

Postcards of Laguna Mural Submission

My entry for the "Postcards of Laguna" Mural Competition. The sketch is 10x14". I found out about this last minute, and LOVE murals, so decided to scrounge and go for it! So I ran down to Laguna in the midst of my crazy schedule, took a bunch of reference pictures- running from one side of town to another, fighting the sun going down I was so proud that I got what I needed. I did a collage type deal, combining my experiences from my art school days in Laguna Beach. It's not my favorite sketch in the world but I am proud I did it in such a short amount of time. I won't find out for a month or two, but I'll keep you posted! Thanks for looking!

Sketchbook Excerpts: 1st week of school

These sketches help describe last week a bit:

It was the first week of teaching art and it was hectic!
I worked all day until I went to sleep and I couldn't sleep
very well because my mind was full of work.


So I worked really hard until I crashed.



Then I got sick and watched a lot of burn notice.

Now I am reminded to take it a bit easier. I was glad for the 3-day weekend. Hope this next week goes a bit better.
