Here are some #mandalas from my #coloringbook Mandalas and Punctuation Marks. Fun and interesting. I drew a bunch of mandalas in Art Deco and Art Nouveau styles. Not sure if that was ever a thing. But it was fun.

This is Orion. I drew this as a little giveaway thing on a promo. It was never in my coloring books, but still a piece I'm pleased with. #coloringbooks #illustration

The number of book marketing humans writing to me is, um, notable. The number of them who send a DM only to delete their account later... that part is also notable. This is where I say 'no judgement' with a tone.

The whole day sneezing. Not sick. Apparently just surviving an unusually warm Wisconsin winter.

Bluesky needs a little 'edit post' button. OR... does it have one that I missed?? I just posted something where I meant to say I do NOT do something, but instead I was typing fast said I DO something. Something that I don't do, dangit. Okay. Very minor rant, given the state of the world.

The problem with my phone / problem with me : I'm getting notifications on many platforms with people giving advice. I cannot figure out what they are talking about. I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. I would prefer them to recommend apple fritters from different bakeries. They ARE NOT.
