    A Blargggh Type of Sunday

    I had a longer drive this morning coming back from visiting family, and the traffic was so very unenjoyable – people going way, way over the speed limit and weaving their cars across three or four lanes of the interstate, and several going quite under the speed limit. Like ugh, why. And usually traffic isn’t quite so bad the route I go, but all the lanes of the interstate felt packed with cars. Booo. And I didn’t have enough coffee this morning, which is my own fault. At least today was a D&D day, but my character was left off at the end of the game rolling death saves 🥲.

    In Between – Part 3: Wandering the Halls

    I finished this third piece in the In Between series at the end of this past April. I used my iPad, but I am still fairly new to painting with it. I felt like I was fighting against the technology, and unsure of how to use it. Oh, and being indecisive about the color palette – that slowed me down quite a bit. 😅 I’ve bookmarked some online courses for Procreate, so perhaps I’ll get a bit less awkward soon.

    Practicing in Between (Part 1 & 2)

    Winter’s begun and the longest night is here. I’m ready for fresh starts, a new year, and lengthening daylight slowly inching back towards spring. I’ve been practicing art quite a bit, and am so close to filling two sketchbooks: a multimedia one and a smaller drawing one (hopefully a sketchbook share video is coming in the near future 🤞). Today I have 25 sketchbook pages to share in this post (!!!). And I came up with the idea for an ongoing series that I’ve just begun, with a new original character!
