Art takes time and that’s ok. That’s the way it’s supposed to be. The joy is in the process.

Line art time.

Contrary to what most of us have been taught, being busy isn’t a badge of honor.

Making art is like reading a good book. If it’s interesting and fun you will always find the time to fit it in.

Make time for what matters.

Progress can be slow at times. Life gets busy, things get in the way and that’s ok. Art isn’t a race. As long as you’re moving forward that’s what counts.

Lots of trial & error on this one. Sanding was easy but my pencil lines were practically invisible once I traced my art so I switched to chalk.

Learning adapting (& napping) is the artist’s way.

Stay tuned for updates.

Cya next time! Follow for more.

I had originally planned to take the top off this table and replace it with a larger piece I’ve been working on but it got far too labor intensive.

So time for Plan B:

Repurpose the art.
If you can’t bring the table to the art, bring the art to the table.

Hey who wants to make something fun?

I know I do.

I picked up this old coffee table for 40 bucks (plus a small donation) at my local thrift store. Let’s see if we can breathe some new life into it.

What’s it going to be?

Follow to find out.

Did you know alligators:

- Can grow up to 15 feet, & can live for over 50 years.

- Sex is determined by the temperature of the nest during incubation. (Warmer temperatures typically produce males, while cooler temperatures produce females).

- Are fun to paint

The work I do these days is all digital. It comes with so much urgency. I grind through deadlines one after another like they are on a conveyor belt.

Feels good to step away from the madness and create with my hands again.

Probably should have cut before I painted but #art is a learning process. Sometimes you get it right sometimes you settle for the work-around.

It’s all good,

Why do I feel cheated when I realize I’m looking at AI imagery?

AI feels hollow because artistically AI images lack a very important component. The part, as humans, we desire most, connection.
AI might make pictures but artists make connections and that makes all the difference. #makingart #artist

Working in a linear fashion is just an illusion reserved for the socials.

At any given time I’m working on ten or more different projects.

Which means finding pics & posting them is always an adventure.

Project complete! (Follow for more)

A wise mentor once told me…

“If you honor the process not the clock, that’s where you’ll find the most joy.”

Contrary to the demands of social media, it’s ok that art takes time. Enjoy the process.
