Screenshot of text I’ve written that reads: I really want to rant about the way the world is going and how the creative industries are being destroyed and how those two things are so closely tied together and I want to complain about how hard it is to just exist and create right now and how it feels like you always need to be 'on' and the pressure to always be making content and be visible that's pushed on us by this capitalist fast tech-driven world we're in right now and how it's stifling creativity in the worst way and how it feels like you need to choose between being visible and actually making good art and experimenting and being a human being but I am exhausted and all my energy has been drained

A few gouache paintings I painted for #pleinairpril that I never posted on here 🎨 I lost a family member halfway through April & found it too hard to continue painting every day, but I’m glad I got to do a few paintings for it :’)

Painting I’ve been working on 🍃 I’ve been studying Ghibli paintings so this is inspired by those a tiny bit. Trying to paint for fun again & get my confidence back :’)

I’m available for BG Paint & color/vis dev work :)

I had a chance to finish this gouache painting, a Plein Air from a hike at Eaton Canyon trail in Altadena while we were in LA in October.

I’ve added it to my INPRNT site as a print, and will donate any profits (minus site fees) to LA wildfire relief/recovery/supporting those impacted.
