surface work

this week i've been doing a little 2D surface work for my wedding accessories and my dress. here are some photos.
i was trying to match the swatch; i think it came out pretty close. i'm not sure how to get the 'dusty' gray to fully match, but it should work.

i'm dying this for my dress, but am second guessing it; it needs more worki like how much darker the first photo looks; i just need to keep working it.

where did may go?!

it seems like just last week i was in ohio for a family thing in late april, next thing i know its memorial day weekend! haaaaaaaaa!!!!!
