Vacations

Vacations are great. Except if you live abroad. Because then, people expect you to go to your home town / country during your vacations.

It's as if people thought that because you're abroad, you're living a vacation everyday except when your with them. I'm looking forward to explaining to my family next year, that I might just skip seeing them because I want to travel to countries I have actually not been to before.

I was thinking about all of this yesterday while drawing these little beach people.  These new aquarelle pencils I bought are fantastic! Aquarelle was never something that grabbed my attention (I think it's mainly due to the blurry look of it). I wanted normal pencils and bought them by mistake. The texture of the color is what I really like about these.
