first day of school

Hey friends!! Excuse my absence.

It’s been a Wake Up/Go to Work/Time for Bed routine lately and one day just blends into the next.

I have been doing some doodling and painting but nothing is finished except this sketch.

It’s another assignment for Sketchbook Skool. We were supposed to draw a memory of our first day of school.

I can’t remember last week let alone my first day of school but I did make some sketches of odds and ends that I do remember from school.

And a note about Sister Mary Scary…she wasn’t scary because she was mean. It’s just that she was larger than life and I was just my normal shy self. I did my best to keep on her good side though.

  1. I remember crying a lot on my first day! Cute drawings. :) I bet the mean boy with freckles grew up to be a nice guy. I have a soft heart for redheaded boys. I have one of my own and they sometimes get picked on. :') Hope your days get less hectic and you have more time for doodling!

    1. haha...the mean boy with freckles turned out to be a good friend. He was the youngest of 5 or 6 boys...i imagine he had to be a little mean to survive that many brothers!!

  4. It is comforting to know that your daily routine sounds currently like mine. I love your first day of school memories! They are as well similar to mine. I had the same hair as you had and my teacher was also a sister called sister Assumpta and she wore the same dress. It's so lovely to see the memories illustrated by you :)
