Just a dandy lil’ guy making art, kicking ass, and trying to hang out with my pals.
I want to challenge myself to do a bunch of quick still life paintings to build up my confidence and skill.

I’ve been procrastinating on a few paintings for months now— they feel daunting. I’m just timidly repainting the background and not pulling anything forward.
But then I remember, I’m entirely self taught. I lack so many basics. Of course it’s hard.

Working on a calavera linocut. I’m loving the creativity this time of year: costumes and decorations. There’s so much to celebrate, especially ancestors and people who have passed.

Just completed a three week fitness challenge! Super proud of myself. Of course I made a #VisionBoard in my #BulletJournal to accomplish it.

Keeping a daily drawing diary for #inktober. Yesterday I screened The Substance for some friends (and had a dentist apt). Today was a kickboxing class. Stay tuned for tomorrow.

I don’t usually do self-portraits, but I just came across some from last fall. I love how I was experimenting with color.

Drawing practice while work is slow. Exploring how bodies can react in relationship to each other.

I just got soft pastels. Anyone have any tips for working with them?

My color theory week long intensive wrapped up yesterday, but we didn’t spend enough time talking about values, so I gave myself a value study homework assignment.

Final project for my color theory class! A previous instructor of mine once said, “collage is just painting with paper” and I haven’t stopping thinking about that. Based on Gustav Caillebottte’s Man Drying His Leg.

Figure painting for my color theory class. King of Wands was my tarot card for the week, so it inspired my subject choice

Art classes are challenging because of working under such a strict time constraint. With more time, I could have given this so much more depth and detail, but a good quick sketch with paint.

My bullet journals / art journals are my magni opi. It’s what pulled me more seriously into art. It’s my favorite medium. But because my journal is so personal, I don’t share much of it here. Here’s a little collage, as a treat.

One of my favorite poets died today. Andrea Gibson set the standard for me of what poetry could do. Their lines constantly string through my head. Rest in power dear
