August Paper Doll - Set 4

Almost caught up on August!! One more set to go and then I'll move on to September.  If you want to see a cool overview of the project so far, check out my Pinterest board for it here.  It's kinda neat to see all of the color schemes together and see themes pop up again & again! Maybe I'll put together a calendar....

This is far & away the biggest project I've ever taken on.  Some weeks, I'm ready to go & excited about drawing.  Other weeks....Less so.  I'm tired on my screen, tired of the dolls, tired of the color schemes.  Just a whole lot of "blah"

I hate to admit it, but this was a bit of a "blah" week.  I found the themes tough. Sure, I could've skipped it but then it would have nagged at me!

So the themes this week were: "into the forest" which is a pair of pants and a tree patterned jacket, "makeup" is a bright pop art inspired dress with lips on it, "catch" is a fishing vest with a rod and hat, "kitchen" is a cute apron, "combination" is a patchwork dress, and "bus" is a bus patterned dress.  Those last two are my favorite.  The patchwork dress was inspired by a denim dress but after I colored it, it reminded me of Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas -- which I love!! And the dress for "bus" was inspired in part by Ms Frizzle from The Magic Schoolbus cartoon and in part by the teachers who dress up for the first day of school.

One more sheet to go! Given that I have a doctor's appointment and 4 days of soccer this week, I'm HOPING to get it up by Friday! I'm not happy unless I'm busy!
