I paper mached cats as a gift, matching their IRL markings. I wanted them to be a mix of cute and kinda insane 😆 and one is holding its namesake #papermache #folkart #catart

Having a fun foray into using neocolors ii’s! I haven’t been in a painting mood but it’s been nice to draw. This one is of Safford Peak in Tuscon

Ahh the joy of a sketchbook palette!

Had a linocut night with friends. I was so focused on making sure the black vs white space was correct… I forgot that the letters would be backwards 😂 #linocut #happylittleaccidents #cats

What I like about this cartoon I’ve made is how versatile it is 🤗 However today it is especially for the Democratic reps who despite 67% of their base wanting to abolish ICE, continue to roll over and do nothing, squandering the little bargaining power left.

The kitty made me laugh out loud 😆 thank you 🐱🗡️

Today I am calling my reps about abolishing ICE and am about to experiment with watercolor 🎨 🫶

Art is resistance. Keep making it! ✨

Yep 😩 a guy I saw has AI generate the scene… and then just paints it exactly. So disappointing. They are not upfront about it either, I learned when researching the courses they offer- so they are teaching others to skip the part where you develop skills & interesting technique 😔

Early stage artists: question whether it’s the right time to start selling. (Presumably it’s not your main income). Selling takes a lot of time and can influence how you make and value your art. (This is why I’m not selling new work for the foreseeable future 😄🫶)

A little study to get back into painting 😌 Morning scene of a cup of espresso on newspaper 📰☕️

This latest painting will be hanging with me for a while. I was contemplating family, loss and existential loneliness while painting… and this super bright painting popped out 😅😅 just your normal everyday thoughts. 🌞 (I’m fine just missing some people 🫶) #art #painting #desert

Freshly framed! I love the way a frame pulls together a finished painting 😄✨ #frame #painting #art #acrylicPainting #melon #cataloupe #stillLife

Desert scene ready to be framed. I wanted to play with making the shadows purple, which is slowly becoming my favorite color to use when painting 😊💜 #art #painting #acrylicPainting #desert #desertArt #cactus #cacti

New little painting ready to be framed! Inspired by the cantaloupes from our garden, soo much tastier than from the store 😋 #melon #cantaloupe #cantaloupes #stillLife #art #foodArt #garden

Such a vibe #cat #cats #lazySunday #lazyday

When the urge to doodle strikes! Always gotta carry at least a pen 😄 #doodle #doodles #doodling

My dad regularly tapes a quote on his mirror, (ex. in last slide). My version is stickers 😄 Lol as a teen I thought this dorky but now I love it. A little gut check on how you’re living day to day 💪💖 #stickers #motivation #inspiration #quotes

I quietly launched my Etsy recently, & while I was at a family reunion a stranger purchased something. I was: a) very excited, and b) totally panicked that I couldn’t ship it immediately / that I hadn’t put the shop on vacation mode bc I hadn’t expected that at all 😆 They were understanding 🙏❤️
