Summer of Sketching Week 8: Travel (+ Cool News)
We are nearing the end of the summer, when just about everyone I know takes some time off time to travel, rest and recharge. I'm doing the same, but afterwards I'll be starting a new chapter of my life (...dramatic silence...).
After 5 years of living and working in New York City, I'm relocating to South America with WeWork's Latin America Design Team!
I'll be based in Buenos Aires, Argentina continuing my current role of Senior Graphic Designer on team Lunch Money (we are hiring by the way).
It has been a dream of mine since 2010 to work as a graphic designer in a Spanish-speaking country. It feels surreal that it's finally happening! Not totally sure what the future will hold but I have my eyes closed and fingers crossed.
What that means for this blog:
I'm SO STOKED to share all the new Latin America projects coming up. But even more than that, I'm excited to take in the new cultures, get uncomfortable and learn a little more about myself.
This blog will evolve organically but I promise to keep it fun & inspiring.
I'm going to keep showing up here every week with tips, updates and other good stuff. When summer is over I'll be transitioning back into writing regular blog articles / newsletters that are not tied to a specific side project.
Last week's prompt was MUSIC
Do you have a playlist that you like to listen to while drawing? If so, send it to me - I'd love to hear it.
Check out a few of the pieces from this week:

Week 7 Prompt: TRAVEL
This week I want you to create a piece inspired by a trip that you went on in the past, or one that you want to do coming up.
Have fun and post your sketches on Instagram with #summerofsketching.
