Something unicorn-shaped(ish).

I just got home from skiing in Beaver Creek and had lots of airport and airplane time so I made this piece.

New art supplies! Of course, I don’t need an excuse to get to work but if I had to pick a favourite then that’s my one, without a doubt.

I often have weird dreams that inspire my artwork, and that one I had last night where I took over a jungle (or was it a forest? I don’t know) sure got me inspired.

A creature of habit until the end, that's me.

A tribute to The Fall and the genius of Mark E. Smith. Not much I can really add to that!

Inktober 7 - Candles. That's week one done! Only 24 prompts left to go :P

Says it all and yet, nothing.

Art therapy is good therapy.

Working on this save the date makes me super happy.

I'm trying to decide between color or black and white for this beach scene that will have layered bright flowers.

The hangover song, heheheh.

I do like a good mondegreen, that much is true. See the radio edit of Royksopp’s ‘Remind Me’ for more details (I might not be mishearing the lyrics, but it’s still quite the earworm): https://youtu.be/XEQcWbbkyPY

Channelling my inner Trekkie, as it says on the tin here...

What else is new here?

I had fun playing with some new markers last night.

I think I'm getting the hang of painting florals with gouache. It helped to decide on a palette and pre-mix the colors.

I'm playing around with a new color palette on this one. I may try a few now that I know about the recolor tool in illustrator!

With thanks (again) to endless listens of Devendra Banhart and other awesome folk like himself...heheh.

I'm making an effort to finish what I start in my sketchbook.

The kids jump, and call, and send koo wees up to the koo wee sky! When I draw happy characters like this I find myself smiling and I don't even realize it. I hope that happiness comes through in the art. - From "Graham's Up the Tree"

So Mum goes for the phone and these guys slip out the door to see what Graham is doing up in the tree... I can't believe they'd just leave their food behind like that. I mean... look at it. Mmm.
