After months of insurmountable art block, I injured my ankle and now I am forced to sit and draw.

#Sketch of my daughter napping on the couch to Howls Moving Castle.

Actually ended up rendering this #watercolor #portrait of my daughter more eventually, using some #guache. May have overdone it, I dunno.

#Oilpastel #drawing from 2021. I've been stuck in a big creative rut, not sure where to start or how to find my flow state again.

I don't recognize myself without my creative practice. Gonna keep uploading old #art just to let it go out into the world, and hope that makes room for me to make new.

I have decided to post my art somewhere, even though it is scary. Starting with these postcard paintings of West Sonoma County, CA
