One of my favorite patterns recently--my "Christmas Quaffs" collection hero pattern! I painted all those drinks in watercolor. Phew! #repeatpattern #surfacepattern #surfacepatterndesign #christmaspattern #festiveseason #watercolor #illustration #drinks #cozydrinks #tistheseason #heathert

Isn't it the little things, though? Even finishing one flower design, or marveling at your pretty village... I'm grateful that we had much-needed rain last night. What little thing are you happy about today? #inspirational #surfacedesign #floral #procreate #illustration #art #owl #heathert

#mixedmediaprocreate #tuesdaymakers Every Tuesday (i.e. Teela Cunningham)'s new course, Mixed Media for Procreate, is so much fun! Love the results. Certainly nothing quick--I think this one took me about 20 hrs. #procreate #mixedmedia #branch #paint #digitalart #heathert #dayoff #art

Hahahhh! Much better on the "simple" spring flowers front. #createwithcatcoq #springflowers #springflorals #surfacepattern #surfacepatterndesign #repeatpattern #blueflowers #bluespring #heathert #simplicity #art
