Arte vlog

Hola Galeras,

The week starts big. Huge even. The thing I imagine is that the week is going to go well. Mochi is feeling better. She is not in perfect health, but neither am I. We are the same that way.

The art is coming along. I like the way the details are coming. I’m used to banging these out fast, so this is hard for me.

More into the wild.

Conversations with artists

Hola Galeras,

I’m trying a new tool in my art box. I want to include you in the discussion.

I’ve been an artist for a very long time. I want to help newer artists with questions. When I was younger I always wanted help with the little steps so I want to be that guy now.

I feel like a lot of help was given out that day. We are starting an irl group called the Sletchbook club. It’s fun to just sit around with artists and shoot the shit, and draw.

Naturally there has been push back. It feels so easy to say “but this”, when you are starting out. I had every reason at one point on why I didn’t have an art book out. It came down to fear of failure and cost. You have to let go and make art. See if it feels good and roll with it.

More to come.

Weekend roundup

Hola Galeras,

When I was young, I wanted to be a vampire and then a video fighter character. As you can imagine, I’m retired now from both.

Every moment feels big looking back from this week. Mochi got better and sicker and better, maybe. I listened to my voices and started painting the snake woman. Tom got jealous of Mochi’s new food, so we gave him a little snack, and he is addicted now to liver worse. I have kept up with being positive forcefully, and yes, it is hard.

I have so much to paint on this one, but I’m planning on making it for the whole month of April.

I keep playing with the idea of playing Hollow Knight, but hard games ruin my calm. I don’t want that feeling.

Art Vlog

Hola galeras,

So this week is going to be a long one. Mochi has another vet visit on Friday. A lot of meds, but no more home shots. Which was a thing for two days. I feel good about the start of the painting. So that’s a fun thing to look forward to. I’ve been posting a lot on Patreon.

Hola Galeras,

So this week is nuts. Mochi is sick and I’m tired. We dropped her off at the vet because she has kidney problems. We should get her back home tonight or tomorrow.

Sorry this post is late. My site has been giving me troubles.

I’ll have more information later.

I finished the painting also last night.

Painter’s Vlog

Hola Galeras,

This is the week. I’m ending my 43 year tomorrow. Which is to say it’s my birthday.

So in celebration I’m bringing back my art wallets.

Enjoy

Pre sale will start tomorrow. First runs are limited.

Wednesday Walk

Hola Galeras,

The walk was nice. I went to the park and collected my thoughts from a recent meeting. Mostly, we talked about art school and if it was worth it. I didn’t feel like I needed it so much, but I did learn a lot from my new friends. So it’s a mixed bag of sorts.

Starting the week

Hola Galeras,

Last week before the end of my 43s. I see a vast ocean of time and a man in a boat pushing back to water out. I’m honestly not sure how to feel about any of it. 43 was a lot, but not all bad. Good moments live in me too. I am free of so many things now. The weight of the condo is gone. Out one window into another.

Weekend round up

Hola Galeras,

Such a long two days. I don’t know why it felt so heavy. Maybe I flew high above the clouds into the sun? Either way, it’s over, and I can rest up a bit. I have so many plans this week.

I wish to cut a lot of sheets of paper for my backstock. I have a huge roll I cut them from. It feels better cutting my own sizes, but also it’s so very much cheaper. I’m trying to focus on making my life easier for myself this year. Not always waiting until the moment and just acting. The blackholes seem to be strinking in my path.

Each week, I just want to connect with all of you. An alligator sitting in a coin pond, smiling at the wishers making wishes.
