Wear some Flowers!

Ways to cheer yourself up. I wish I could do this with my hair, I have to make do with a flower or two pinned to my shirt. Perhaps I just haven't quite got the technique right. Speaking of which, I am struggling with my materials, I think the paper I am using isn't helping, but I am also doing battle with getting the structure of my drawings to work properly. I think more time would help - I seem to be rushing about getting other things done and am really rather nervous about managing a picture every day once I get back to school next week. Planning is going to be tricky. I did say some of these pictures might end up being design scrawls for my jewellery, and/or doodles as I think around my ideas. Perfectionist tendencies begone! Give some room to yourself for playfulness, fun even.
