Inktober day 5

So much making.

I’m excited to be working on a fun book with these paintings. I think I’ll merge it with my 6 of 30/ Inktober.

Here some links to more of my art.

Into the sun

into the wilds

The time to let all things dry and bond.

Those leaves are the rest of time in a rapper. A moment of space enclosed with a life print, laying in the sun to vanish. The darkness creeps in hours before my mind can grasp it. We are the epicentre. Paint is the epicentre. Ink is the epicentre.

madness

my Summer plans made it!

I have never had a green thumb really ever and yet my studio has kept these babies alive. I know it’s a cactus but I’m back at not killing them from neglect.

I just feel they are beautiful.

that is all.

Do you have studio plants? What are they? How old are they?

Inktober day 3

I’m happy this keeps going and really happy I’m enjoying it.

Seeing the sun undressed.

Let the sun in and greet her with a hot cocoa.

I’m finding it important to do little rituals in the mornings. They just start everything right.

The cats do it, the dog does it, why not me?

I enjoy the chaos of creativity but maybe I’m out growing that lost feeling? I think so.

The build up

Inktober for most artist’s is exciting and often insanity for all of October. We see it as this often impossible task. So my secret is to treat it like just a fun drawing session with my brushes. I try to do as many as I can in one setting. I know those aren’t the rules but the hell with the rules. Life comes at you some days sideways. The idea that you have enough time to think and prep for 31 days is stupid. I for one have commissions to do in addition to Inktober that are important also. I’m sure a lot of us do. We are all very talented.

Just breath and promise yourself to try and that is what is important. If you are even doing it for a day then that is a big deal and I would love to see it. Leave me a link to your art so we can see it. Share with us.

I use my patreon all the time to share my mind, my heart and my art. Come and see.
