IF : Dip
Here is my entry for this week's Illustration Friday theme of "dip" ... it goes out to my wife, Jodie, who is convinced the time is right for swimming, sun-ing and in general heading to the beach. I say it's still spring.
This is all vector, mixing some Brush strokes, the Blob Brush, the new (but still lame) in-line Gradient tool and a tad bit of Illustrator's Raster Effects thrown in for fun.

- My sketch entry for last week's Illustration Friday theme of "undone". I had a lot of fun drawing with this one at my parents' place in Pompano on Friday and am really tempted to make a cleaner, tighter vector version (especially with all of the suggestions that Joey made) ... but I am wondering if ...
