Some homey Christmas things with my old camera. 🎄
Found my way back to art after a few weeks on the job. I got pretty emotional about it — felt like a little homecoming.💕 The daily commute is tiring but it trains my ability to prioritize & focus on my needs. Also been reading The Artist's Way as I continue to reorient my creative approach.

Sometimes mom putters around my studio and s̶t̶e̶a̶l̶s̶ asks for art to keep. Mom privilege mandates that she gets first dibs. 😅

Q for artists: what's your most efficient way of tracking time for your work? Esp those with versatile mediums/styles?
I used to use Toggle but I often forget to turn it on/off as I work. A bit of time-blindness also happens. I honor deadlines but dunno how long certain pieces really take.🤔

Work in progress on a couple of cute cookie thieves.🍪 Also went back to working on a pentablet after years of being on a pendisplay. I've missed the controlled experience and good posture. 😅

Well. There's definitely a wide and deep chasm that was crossed there. 😅
But I'd say, figuration aside. My color and compositional arrangement are similar, no?

Just staved off a potential flu.😮💨Anytime my systems are down, my motivation for previously set goals dim & I worry I'll just wanna quit it all. Relieved that this is not the case yet. Mind + body just needed full, uninterrupted rest.
HP/MP sure looks REAL different in my late 30s. Shocking.

Been playing w resins on/off for a while now, but I recently joined a workshop to get a real foundation in it. Made my first mini river table and learned all about prep & post work. The possibilities are so exciting!

🔖Post backlog: "Animal Metaphors" made during my jiujitsu era.
Recently watched my nephew compete and it made me miss sparring. Being real tho, I don't maintain that raging fire necessary for fight-sports. Sticking to climbing walls for now.

Been feeling fatigued and distracted these past weeks. Grim world news, weighing career opportunities + irregular day routines are all contributory factors.
Abstract work has been a consistent balm during this time. I've not painted this much in and drawn so little. It's quite soothing.🌱

Scenes from an Island Home — 4 x 47in. acrylic and oil on palochina wood. Made this painting for a client who sorely missed the Philippines. Hoping this brings some tropical warmth to her new home in the UK!
