Chocolate and cream color palette for autumn + an interview with me!

cream and chocolate color palette for fall

I love autumn. The breathtakingly beautiful leaves, the crisp refreshing air and of course the apple cider. Red and orange come to mind when I think autumn but I love the idea of dreamy creamy off white and chocolate brown too. Here are my picks for that color scheme should you agree that a more subdued palette suits your mood this season:

  1. Bronte lace shirt by Marc Jacobs
  2. Belted ruffle coat by Rebecca Taylor
  3. Desert boots by Madewell
  4. Totally turnlock Natasha messenger bag by Marc Jacobs

I was recently interviewed by Nadine over at Creatively Thinking about my illustration, inspiration and advice for artists who are just starting out. Check it out here!

Here’s a daily drawing I haven’t yet shared. Part of this series. So much going on right now, I have not drawn or painted for days. When the dust settles I’ll get back into the swing of daily drawing! Maybe tonight.

Hope you have a great Wednesday. XO.

It’s been a sad week for me. Henry’s started daycare. He’s not loving it so far. It will take time to adjust but he’s so used to me holding him and giving him so much attention all the time. I just hope the adjustment is fast for both of us. I hope he does not feel the way I do, my heart is breaking. I have not had time to do a lot of work this week since I went back to teaching. Still I found the time to paint some paper with kid’s tempera paint and play around with it to make some new pieces. Here’s one of them. I’m so excited to spend the weekend with my family. I just want my baby in my arms! Hope you have a lovely weekend.
