Well here they are, some of my final sketches from while I was in Jerusalem. Even though I didn't have any art classes this semester, I feel as though keeping this sketchbook has really helped me grow. I wanted to challenge myself in the stylization of my characters, giving them more emotion, movement, and stories of their own. Looking back and comparing last semester to my previous sketchbooks, I am very surprised and impressed by the improvement.
This past semester my calling was to be an FHE mom. I had the best "family" to work with. One night, they convinced me to draw each of them, originally to make t-shirts but that plan fell through. We then came up with titles for each member and what their role was in the family. I think we were pretty accurate in the descriptions. Please say hello to my little family. I love them all dearly.

What you can do with a sheet of paper and a pencil is A...MAY...ZING!!!! And, of course, I saved "Eden, the Mother Hen" to my camera roll. It captures you perfectly.
