cookie?


"C is for cookie, and cookie is for me!" :D

so my aunt got us subway cookies recently, and they were so darn gooooood... *disappears in a cloud of sugary, buttery bliss*

tumblr girl tattoos


just a fun little doodle i made of the most common girl tattoos i see on tumblr (minus all the quotes and fandom related stuff). as overused as these designs have become, i have to say they're still very pretty. :p

made with black ballpoint pen in my notebook.

another little doodle i made with black, light grey and yellow fine liner pens on starbucks napkin. :)

the perks of being able to draw


a little fan cover i drew for my all time favourite book, the perks of being a wallflower by stephen chbosky. 
call me a hipster or a typical teen or anything if you must, but i absolutely adore this book. <3

mini-mandala


an itty bitty mandala i drew in my notebook with dark red, black and yellow fine liner pens. :)

mad love


not exactly fan art, seeing as how i've never actually watched the movie, nor do i have any idea what it's about. the dvd just happened to be lying around a friend's house, and i was bored, so... :p

made with 2B pencil and gold gel pen. :)

waiting for you, it's been a long time coming...


absolutely love this new song by one night only. 
made with black fine liner pen and gold gel pen. :)
