Quick Updates and Sketches

So after that massive lie in January promising I would "keep up with this blog this year", I'm finally following up with another post...ten months later!

This semester I'm actually taking a figure drawing class so I can't fall behind on posts even if I wanted to. No more excuses!

When I become obsessed with something, it will usually come out on paper.

So here it is everyone, Harry Styles of One Direction.

I'm sad I don't have easy access to a scanner. So for now, my iPhone camera will have to do.

New toy came in the mail!

In the middle of midterms, I receive a package from Amazon that I ordered a month ago. I knew that if I opened it, it would be the end of my studying. Reluctantly, I surrendered it to Euna, who guarded it until after my exam.

"What is the package?" you ask. It's a Wacom Bamboo Tablet!! Ahhh yaaaaay. So I finally got to play with it today after my exams and here is the result:
