So at the end of a day where I was feeling sickish (possibly another summer cold or something, though not nearly as debilitating as the one from May), inspired (I realized something about my workflow in Illustrator, though I didn’t exactly have all the time I wanted to explore this development), and quite busy (you know, life) all at once, I sat at my desk and sketched around while texting a friend.
