50 States. 50 Sketches Postcard Project.

Still trucking along sending postcards to people I know! Sketching at coffee shops while friends, who went to school in Indiana, study and read. My sister gave me insight to Indiana also with the song Fly Over States by Jason Aldean. Enjoy!

50 States 50 Sketches Postcard Project

Getting closer to halfway, getting better at sketching and doodling, getting better at knowing my states. But I am also getting to the point where I am running out of people to send them to. So I turned to my Facebook friends again and got a great response. Wyoming and Maine are still up for grabs though.

and as I am ... hopefully... halfway through the postcard sketches, I received one back! It came from my New York recipient G. Stearns. It was fun to pull this from my mailbox!

My designs are getting better- which is why I started this project in the first place, to become a better sketcher, so I can write a children's book someday. I've been to both of these states and felt like I knew enough to fill the postcards. I think they embrace the states!

50 States. 50 Sketches Postcard Project.

These were pretty fun and somewhat challenging. New York had a wide range of things that reminded me of the state from "The City" to Upstate but I didn't know much about Minnesota- or all I think of about Minnesota are lakes, outdoors and the Mall of America. Enjoy!
