Doing the wash
Tools, get it?
So as a painter, my big tools are not those but these.
I say over and over again “clean your tools” to myself at myself. I work with ink and paint and to be honest the ink destroys a lot of my brushes but I still love it.
They are my little babies and I should treat them to a pleasant wash from time to time. It’s a charming moment of the looking glass.
Honestly save your good brushes by washing them less but when I do wash them, do it well.
I have an issue of using half a soap each time I wash all my brushes. They seem to enjoy it.
The main point of all of this is that the big step in being a professional painter is wash your brushes but not to much.

Working on some new ideas
I miss making art GIFs. They were a big part of my art twenty years ago. Roots

Painter’s Breakfast
Hola Galeras,
Hope you are well.
Just a nice show with an idea.
I learn more each time.
I have this way about me that I feed off of my inner voice trying to talk me out of things. It mostly is a passive thing but some times I’m enraged by the self doubt. I cut bits of it away to see the problem and try to find solutions either on paper with paint and ink or writing it out. This painting was fighting me and then I spoke with Alec and it came to me.
The engine is parts, so paint it in parts.
I like how it is going now. I was tempted to destroy it and start something else but I’m stubborn.
Sometimes painting in the dark helps me see ways the light can’t show me.
More to come mi Gente.
Getting back to making abstracts
It feels so weird Galeras to make art and not think about it. It’s a reflection of a meditation I made up for myself.
You should all subscribe to my YouTube channel.

The full roll is up on my Patreon. There are over a dozen rolls up on there of all my art in processing. It’s really interesting to see the layers build.
Making wrapping paper
Each one I make is different per person.
