We did it! 50 years ago tomorrow, Apollo 11 landed on the moon! Such an awesome achievement, it is amazing the things we can accomplish with team work, persistence, and imagination!

Last week we said goodbye to my grandma, who we called Gigi. One way Gigi spoiled us grandkids was with Beanie Babies....LOTS of Beanie Babies! We decided it would be a fun tribute to give away some Beanies at the funeral, so I drew up a little sign and some tags to put on the Beanies (I will post some of those pics in my stories). We will miss you, Gigi. ♥️♥️♥️ . . . #sylviadraws #illustration #illustrator #cartoon #grandma #tribute #art #artist #flowers #portrait #illustratedportrait #cute #drawing #sweet #sketch #digitalart #vectorart #love #missyou #atlartist #freelanceillustrator #cuteillustration #childrensillustration #doodle #doodlesofinstagram #artofinstagram (at Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz9Lc7TAij0/?igshid=5p511j0b6bz9

After visiting the Miyazaki museum, I was so inspired by his sketches. They are so loose, yet specific. His linework is full of life. I felt inspired to get better, and to draw quickly, loosely, and with energy...which is really how I love to sketch, but I feel I have lost touch with the technique over the past few years. I am taking the suggestion of my husband and looking to the reddit r/oldschoolcool for inspiration. This photo of Maud Stevens Wagner, the first known female tattoo artist in the US, really captured my interest. Swipe to see the sketch without any added color as well as the original photo. . . . #sylviadraws #art #artist #illustratorsoninstagram #illustration #illustrator #photoreference #sketch #sketchbook #sketching #womenindesign #womeninillustration #drawing #atlartist #inspiration #oldschoolcool #backtobasics https://www.instagram.com/p/BzBFjRBAHYf/?igshid=17l872h7hm2iw

We have been so busy (and exhausted!) since we arrived in Tokyo on Monday, so I am sad to say I fell behind on my travel doodles. Also, so many of the highlights are just....so impossible to capture in a doodle! Here's some highlights from the past week. Tomorrow we fly home! So sad to leave Japan, but happy to be coming home to our own bed and our pup! Japan, you have been amazing! 🎌🤖🍜🦔 . . . #sylviadraws #sketchbook #japan #travelsketchbook #traveljournal #theydrawandtravel #tokyo #shinjuku #ghiblimuseum #totoro #robotrestaurant #japanesefood #ramen #taiyaki #wagyu #hedgehogcafe #traveljapan #illustration #illustrator #illustratorsoninstagram #womeninillustration #sketch #drawing #art #artist (at Shinjuku) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByuzUhuAY8H/?igshid=rduf5oel9ojb

Yesterday we explored Nara and explored Amerikamura in Osaka and had an absolute blast! We are on our way to Tokyo now and I drew this on the bullet train, hence the wobblier than normal handwriting! 🚅🦌 . . . #sylviadraws #sketchbook #japan #travelsketchbook #traveljournal #theydrawandtravel #osaka #nara #naradeer #japanesefood #temples #kushikatsu #nodoubledips #amerikamura #traveljapan #illustration #illustrator #illustratorsoninstagram #womeninillustration #sketch #drawing #art #artist #shinkansen #bullettrain (at Shinkansen (Bullet Train)) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByhYh3ngAh6/?igshid=99rmfjju0u23

Some highlights of our time in Osaka thus far! We went to the Hanshin Tigers baseball game last night, which was so much fun...and then today we spent exploring Himeji Castle (and eating some amazing food!) Soon, we will go out on the town for some more eating in Osaka. 🏯🍜🍦 . . . #sylviadraws #sketchbook #japan #travelsketchbook #traveljournal #theydrawandtravel #osaka #hanshintigers #himeji #himejicastle #udon #icecream #blacksesame #japanesefood #cupofnoodles #cupofnoodlesfactory #ikeda #traveljapan #illustration #illustrator #illustratorsoninstagram #womeninillustration #sketch #drawing #art #artist (at Osaka) https://www.instagram.com/p/BycXpQjAgLF/?igshid=cuarprfyl7v9

We are getting so pumped for our trip to Japan! I am hoping to do a lot of sketch journaling on the trip, so I thought I would warm up a bit by highlighing some things I am super pumped to eat in Japan! A few other things on the list that didn't make the drawing: matcha ice cream, Lawson's egg sandwich, yakisoba, teppenyaki, and unagi! What should we be sure to eat in Japan?? 🇯🇵🍜🍙🍛 . Disclaimer: I will not be eating any Shiba inu's in Japan, though they are so cute that I COULD eat them....I just really wanted to draw a couple of shibas! 🤗🐶 . . . #sylviadraws #travelsketchbook #sketchjournal #traveljournal #japan #traveljapan #ramen #drawing #sketch #sketchbook #tombow #copic #takoyaki #okonomiyaki #sushi #dango #curry #katsu #onigiri #yakitori #japanesefood #theydrawandtravel #fooddrawing #illustration #illustratorsoninstagram #illustrator https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx0oE6tFtO3/?igshid=12z25k4hw9652

Recently I drew these sweet pups, Hagrid and Buckley, for @atldogart . She wanted simple portraits that could be printed on cups for her wedding! Swipe to see a pic of the pups themselves as well as a couple of images from the wedding. It is always so fun to see the creative ways that people personalize their weddings, and custom printing on cups, glassware, or koozies is such a great way to add a unique touch!

Detective Pikachu was SO FUN! I think I was smiling from ear to ear pretty much the entire time. Just wanted to have a bit of fun with some pencil sketching on this one...I will admit, I tinkered with it a bit in Photoshop after. 😁 Reminded me how much I love simply sketching with a pencil, starting loose and then refining as you go. ✏️⚡⚡⚡ . . . #sylviadraws #pokemon #detectivepikachu #fanart #bulbasaur #doodle #sketch #sketchbook #drawing #illustratorsoninstagram #illustration #illustrator #dynamicduo #bff #atlcreative #atlartist #artist #pencilsketch #pokemonfanart https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxi6BJNlK2T/?igshid=16et7t2zbv9pz
