#NatStatWeek.

Yes... it's been a while... again :) 

Life has been full but tbh a blog is fairly easy to put together so I guess it's more about focus. Things change for me, working hours, after july so with a bit of luck I'll have the blog running more consistently - I might have to as some of what I hope to go into will rely a little more on my communication skills!

Regardless: NatStatWeek! A weeklong celebration of all things Stationery, definitely something I can get behind... Last week I was delighted to be able to draw at the London Stationery Show for Scriveiner (big fan) and it was all of the fun. I drew a few images, including the third in a trilogy of text hashtag/day designs and finished it off with some slower paced toning work on the train home.

I LOVE drawing text... Each time I tell myself I should plan it more and consider the words a little more fully and then each time I start with a blank page and find out what happens as I'm doing it. I did plan this one a LITTLE though.... Only changing the colour, page orientation, pen and so on in the final image. 

One day I'll try and collect some of my word pages in a more concerted fashion but for now here are two that I found which relate to the above image. I *think* I have a video time-lapse of the Fountain Pen Day image, will add that when I find it.
