Painted this tiny handmade sticker on washi sticker paper using Holbein Artists’ Gouache with Caran d’Ache watercolor pencil for details. Based on a "Ginori 1735" teapot that my friend recently purchased in Italy. #illustration #stickers #gouache

I’ve been reading about Hayao Miyazaki and delving deeper into his body of work. This book is next to be explored.

Playing with typography on envelopes. Saw this font in Graffiti Alphabets by Claudia Walde. Done with colored pencils and black and white liners.

Did a study of Teto from "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind" manga. This is based on a panel from Volume 1. Worked out the sketch on paper then traced it and did the final adjustments in Procreate.

Nice 1982 Austrian stamp from the flea market stamp stash I purchased. It is from the "Modern Art" series and the engraving is by Ernst Fuchs (who, fun fact, had 16 children!).

Read in a calligraphy book that fountain pen ink is not recommended for dip pens as it is too thin, hence got myself this "Marshmallow Creamy" by Sailor.

Received this great Spanish stamps combo: 1967 apples stamp and the stunningly detailed 1977 stamp for 200th anniversary of the mail routes to the West Indies. These stamps are denominated in peseta.

Incoming sparrow postcard from India! A lovely addition to my "snail mail sparrows" mini collection. Did you know that March 20th is the World Sparrow Day?

Did notation and mini illustration for a Luz de Agua song I like based on a poem by Juan L. Ortiz. Notation probably not 100% correct but at least readable. 😂 Sending this out as mini mail art.

Recarved the owl from prior posts a bit bigger on a free sample of gomuban (Japanese vinyl) from @mcclains.printmaking.supplies, and today tested printing it on my Woodzilla press. Will be adding these 5x7 prints on Etsy once they dry.

Got these Riso stickers by Barbie Kim at RisoLAB’s latest PrintSlam sale/exhibition. I try to attend these and purchase something to support fellow artists - same way I was encouraged and supported when people bought my silly prints during prior PrintSlams. #risograph #riso #stickers
