Stay Cool! (And Calm)

My Favorite Heatwave Outfit And Essentials

I’m melting here in my workspace. I accidentally broke my ventilator and it’s sooooo hot! One more hour and then I’m off to enjoy the evening sun. Stay cool and hydrated (and calm) out there! 🍋🍋🍋

This is a drawing of my favorite heatwave outfit and essentials to keep me cool. If you like this you can follow me on Instagram and Pinterest for regular updates or shop my illustrated postcards and other papergoods on Etsy.high

Summer Plans

The last 2 months have been so busy that I almost forgot to make summer plans! Most days I happily spend behind my drawing desk. I also don’t have much new clothes to draw because I’m still trying to buy less and only what I really, REALLY love, preferably vintage, like some of the “old” favorites on here. If I buy something new, I have to get rid of 2 similar items, which is not always easy, but still makes me feel good about minimizing my stuff. I did get some new art supplies, which always makes me very happy! ☺️

Stay cool!

Trying to stay cool and productive during this heatwave is a real challenge! These are some of my “heatproof” favorites at the moment.

Camping, not Glamping!

I just returned from a short but lovely camping trip to the beautiful Dutch island Schiermonnikoog. Since we had to carry our own luggage the whole journey it was definitely more of a camping than glamping experience, and this is basically what I wore the whole trip.
