@FedExCanada once again your absolutely incompetent service has screwed up a package I was waiting on. Stop hiring people who don't ring or buzz, leave a slip first try, and drop off the package with a random stranger at a store streets away. No one should ship with you.
Going to be on some gnarly meds for 2 weeks to address recent GI issues, so I may have spotty availability & not get a ton done during that time. Just going to do my best. Thank you everyone. โฅ Huge thank-yous to my patrons especially at this time for their amazing generosity.
If you visit me and I hand you a pile of my sketchbooks to look at, I am not just trusting you to handle them, I am inviting you to look into Me. And the Me that lives in my art does not die. Not even when I do. That's how I feel about it.
Random bits & bobs from the archives. Sometimes think about getting a personal art site up (once more common) I can manage myself; was fun to peruse artists' own galleries including doodles that disappear over time in the flow of socials but remain interesting & worth seeing.
I don't get the attitude that has developed around art having an expiry/artists being expected to have something new every few days. Art you enjoy is just as nice to look at years later; a collection of it even moreso. Wandering around in the record of someone's journey.
Celestial Insects 3 is looking more like a spring release next year, though I am aiming to have some other new things sooner! But I think everyone's patience will be well worth it.
Good news for the people who wanted a whip scorpion/vinegaroon, by the way.
WIP from last year I keep meaning to get back to. I want to do the final version traditionally in black & sepia inks with some watercolor... keep changing my mind on what size.
