Started working on a series of small desert-inspired paintings that I'll be taking with me to the Reno Tahoe International Art Show in September. Today I get to sand. (Btw if you're sanding acrylic paint, always spray the surface with water, don't dry-sand!)

The May 2023 art journal is now public!

This was when I switched to a screen tablet for art for the first time. Progress for an Aasimar character painting, a couple of artworks that I wasn't happy with and thus don't show, and some good news after the stress of my tablet breaking.

Sneak peek into the early stages of "Tisiphone"! Core ideas taking shape in #krita , soon to be on canvas.

My first attempt at printing my linocut design on paper, before trying it on fabric (hopefully tomorrow). This is not too bad and I'm pretty happy with the details, especially the bee which I love.
Ps: cutting this lino block took me about a million years and also...muscle pain in my arm

My #scrollBook advances ... I love the effects of the variegated embroidery thread. I love the stories and thoughts stitched into the fabric. And working on it is a perfect thought cleanser. A textile #Artjournal ... @embroidery @textilearts @fibrearts @fiberarts
