In addition to being a nanny, one of my pre-idol jobs was that of an illustrator for this adorable clothing company called Kate's Closet, unfortunately they are no longer operating. But there was a time that I was up till 3 am at the kitchen table covered in pencil smudges bringing this lovely little character to life. I had no formal experience or training as an illustrator, it was a crash course at combining hand drawings with graphic design. It was a challenging job, but a fun one. Drawing was my first love... before music, before hair, it was all about drawing!
Anywho, I was looking through old files on my computer and came across this first rough sketch of "Kate"...
it's absolutely beautiful! you should start doing more... xo, carla
