meditation

I used another glitter pen, and it did not turn out as well as the last one when scanned.. oh well.

Ok, I said I would think about goals for my art, and I did write down a couple.

1st, is 10 Cute or Creepy paintings. I haven’t done much painting, however I have some acrylic paints, and this gives me a way to explore it without it feeling too serious.

2nd, is 10 Landscape paintings. This one… there’s a few reasons for it. I want to stretch myself by trying to make what I see, rather than whatever pops into my head. I also understand that most of the things I make are rather niche, and when you combine that with how hard I find it to put myself out there, it’s rather difficult to make any money. Do I think landscapes are going to be a magical fix all? No. I do think I would feel better about taking them to a local art gallery, which would be a step forward.

Other than that… minorly contemplating something to help with putting myself out there, however I am an anxious bean and it will take a lot of courage on my part, so I’ll see how I’m feeling about it next time.

Hope you all have a wonderful week!

A Moment of Peace

My scanner and I had some disagreements about colors again.

This piece was inspired by my backyard, the growing season coming up, a call to artists at my local art center, and my own wishes for a moment of peace.

In other news: I finally have some author copies on their way, should be here next week. My vinyl cutter is set up and I’ve been having some fun designing things, and now have some fun little sticker things to play with and figure out what to do with. I now have cards with my website and YouTube on them. And my garlic is sprouting!

Here’s the link if you want to watch me make it https://youtu.be/ku1i0_trsQE

Hope you all are well, and can find your own moments of peace!
