Quick Sketches of my Favorite Oscar Dresses

This year I did something a little different

while watching the Academy Awards.

I did quick sketches of 

my three favorite dresses...

of course while munching on snacks

and playing some Oscar Games
(see the links below).

These were just quick studies - not meant to be perfect by any means. 

I enjoyed whipping them out!

I was inspired by this 
infographic of Oscar Dresses.

And  guess, what?

I'm on Instagram now and invite you

to follow me there

where I'm undertaking some new creative 

directions and posting my artwork.

What were your favorite moments of the evening?
