Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm a little bit late but I wanted to say HAPPY THANKS GIVING! (for those of you that celebrate!) I had an awkward but wonderful dinner with the family. I didn't want to cook this year so I took it upon myself to make some fancy place settings (with help from Zoei of course!) I ate way too much as always! I'm not sure why thats a thing people do, but I'm not complaining! 

Zoei did all the brush lettering! She's gotten really good lately, I still need a ton of practice. But I did the little white flourish-y bits! I think it turned out quite lovely. We topped it off with random greenery that we chopped off some bushes outside of work!

We each made a center piece as well. We just gathered a bunch of stuff we found outside. They look like a bit of a mess, but I really LOVE the way they turned out. Plus we didn't have to spend any money! Which means more money for black Friday sales!

I have a feeling i've got a lazy weekend ahead of myself! Let the holidays begin!

List of Thoughts + LINKS

1- I made this lil' peach babe as a postcard a little while ago. I kind of really love how she turned out and it was difficult to let her go. So it goes.
2- I've been using Native Deodorant lately. Let me tell you as far as all natural deos go this one is the best! Sometimes it feels like magic. As a person that sweats quite a bit I'm pleasantly surprised how well i've adjusted to it! Can't wait to try the other scents.
3- I finally found the perfect tattoo artist in UTAH! I'm trying to schedule something and I'll keep you guys up to date. Needless to say i'm terrifyingly excited!
4- I'm kinda sick of pumpkin flavored things, but I've to admit THESE pumpkin caramels look amazing! Maybe I can convince someone to make me caramels mmmmm.
5- I found THIS lil' Atlas Obscura post quite delightful! I've always thought doppelgängers were hella interesting after several people have told me I look like other people, which is weird but interesting! One day I'll write a zine about it.
6- I'm not excited for Thanksgiving and its kinda bumming me out. I know I still have a week to get excited about it, but I'm not holding my breath.
7- The feeling in the air just breaths of heaviness and my heart doesn't know how to digest it.
8- I bought some of THESE and I can't wait to fill them up! So teeeeeny!
9-I'm in love with THIS Instagram! She's been popping up a lot lately and I love her work. There is something so dreamy and appealing about textile art. UGH its givin me all the feels!
10- This cold chill is comin on strong. Time for some fluffy socks!

October Art Journal

This month got away from me to say the least. Fall has not beed a very good blogging month. BUT if you want to keep up with my on-goings I always keep my Instagram up to date (@remikeahi) On the bright side I have been keeping up on my art journal! This last month got a bit wet. I was using a lot of wet medium on really thin paper. So in short it became a giant mess but turned out kinda lovely is a messy way! I'll definitely have to start a new book cause this one is ruined-finshed-beautifully messed up!

AAAHHH its almost the end of the year!! *sigh*

Song and Doodle #69

I'm still practicing and getting the hang of this whole iPad drawing thing. I like the way this one turned out! I'm trying to download some new brushing and practice my typography. Anyways today I wanted to share this amazing new song that I've fallen in love with! Don't Let The Kids Win by Julia Jacklin. The first time I heard this song I busted out crying. For multiple reasons, but mainly cause it is an incredibly human song. Being human is such a weird, amazing, sad, joyful experience and this song catches all of that! Its incredibly relatable and I just adore it. Have a listen, catch all the feels!
