The new Hasselblads are so dang out of my range! I can't even swing a used one. This is the first time using the oil brush in @procreate on a final illustration. I have to admit i didn’t want it to end.

Having way too much fun with textures and halftones in Procreate.

Allover fish pattern using some old and new ocean themed drawings.

This is the second oil painting I have ever made, and the first time I have attempted to create mountains, trees and bushes. I used just 3 colours for this: Raw Umber, Phthalo Blue and Titanium White. I learned a lot and had tonnes of fun at the same time.

Taciturn. I don't know any other creature most temperamentally disinclined to talk than fish. I have a few at home and they are a very quiet company.

A thought I've been having lately- To make peace without forgiveness, I do it for my own mind, my own future, and you need nothing from me too.

Missing people watching in public, and the smells and sounds of a coffeehouse. Pencil drawing with some digital painting.

Leonard was my first 'extra cirricular' patron in 1969. I never forget it. So I am posting him first, a recent pen and ink drawing.

One of my favourite series. I'm trying to strike the right balance between the abstract and the realism, and I think I try to do that through my use of colours. It's the most rewarding feeling when you use unexpected colours and they come together somehow! Acrylics, watercolour pens and posca markers.

Inktober drawing.

Mixed media drawing of a genius loci - the protective spirit of a place. Part of an upcoming series for prints, cards, and stuff!

Hello, this is me in sunglasses. My name is Tricia (they/them) and I live on the east-coast of US in Maine (which is up by Canada). I look forward to the cooler weather. My goal is to draw more insects and moons in the future. Hope you have a great day~

A friend suggested this. I’m really glad he did.
