How is the summer almost over? One of the World's Most Fashionable Paper Dolls returning home from Madrid. @maxhosa sweater, @celine sunnies (total light blockers, ideal for headache-y mornings and sad afternoons) Always a massive bag for reading material and a picnic and extra pens. Love this leather bag from Aakasha on @etsy The pleats on these #fiorella pants are also for storage. They hide a travel wallet for passport and cash. #travel #madrid #spain #airportstyle #tikidolls (at Adolfo Suárez Madrid–Barajas Airport)

In #carolinaherrera and a #vintage #bakelite necklace of yellow cherries, headed into Mercado de San Miguel. My travel companion called it a "glass box full of food," like that's a bad thing. The produce looks amazing but I'll skip it and go straight to croquetas and Gilda's. #spanishstyle #spanishfood #drawntoadventure #tikidolls #bespoke (at Mercado de San Miguel)

The AVE train from Barcelona to Madrid is perfect. Arrived Atocha Station unrumpled in #delpozo trousers, a recoloured #stellajean shirt, and #jarjewelry ribbon brooch. I've been reading Lenin's kisses by #yanlianke all afternoon and now I'm off for a #vermut and a nibble. #drawntoadventure #tikidolls #bespoke

My makeup was destroyed by a splash of water to the face on the log flume. But the children are happy. #motherhood #familyvacay #tibidabo #barcelona In a #clairmccardell #vintage romper, a #lanvin necklace from a couple seasons ago, a #headwrap, and this year's tote of the summer from @shopclarev and @everymomcounts. I love the project and I love the font #everymothercounts #drawntoadventure #tikidolls #bespoke

Barcelona street style is hard to spot in the throngs of tourists. They fill the streets like a demobbed army of white people in sensible shoes. I saw the glow of this lady's hair blocks before she was close enough for me to see her gold necklace. The print dress, shoppers, and white court shoes were everything. #prints #sensible #ladylike #foodshopping #barcelona #streetstyle

I went to Parc Guell to see a bit of Gaudi and I think my favorite parts of mosaic were done by his collaborator, Josep Maria Jujol. I want to look at more of his work to see if I can tease out which bits he did. The terrace benches are decorated with patterned broken tile that is really beautiful and subtle in a way that much of the other trencadis in the park isn't. The aspect of Gaudi's work I'd not known about was his engineering. The park is full of slanted columns that look decorative but are canted that way to support the load. I'd no idea, until I got up close, how practical his work was. #barcelona #modernisme #artnouveau #architectural #engineering #drawntoadventure ps. On the topic of creative collaboration, this World's Most Fashionable Paper Doll was cut and colored by Tiny Tiki Papier. She is dressed for an apres-touristing picnic. #kidsart #tikidolls #bespoke

I drew for about 8 hours yesterday. Lots of ruined paper and only one drawing to show for it. But! I also only once dunked my brush in my tea. #behindthescenes #artlife

I often draw the same picture over and over until it feels right. Usually within a day, I can’t tell what was wrong with the first one. #process
