Drawing book edges for five hours!

Today is Sunday time to look back in the rearview mirror and talk about my week . I am linking up to the Sunday Post hosted for years by Kimberly@caffeinatedreviewer . 

In my private life

Happy Sunday!

Not much has happened this week except for a lot of work, changing my tires and going to the physiotherapist for back aches.

Becoming old sucks!

Tomorrow will be another control at the hospital (cross your fingers) and some more stretching for my back. Everything very sexy LOL

But todday I was determined to unwind and take care of myself in drawing book edges.

Usually I would have painted them in one go but my project is a little bit ambitious as I have a big drawing going across three books of the series.

To make matters worse, I have a repetitive pattern that asks symetry and precision…

So it took me five hours so far and I drew this!

Just one reel this week as I was pretty busy…

Two reviews last week!

The first one is for an amazing sequel!

And the second is about a very lovely and funny romcom.
