Standing on a block (while two men sit up top),
The horse is deep in thought, wondering "Where can we walk?"
He's distraught 'cause he knows that there is nowhere to go,
And it does no good to tell them, they'll just say "I told you so."
WIP and having a blast. What could it be? The answer coming in the near future.

Rabbits thorns and moons. I usual don’t know where I’m going when my pen touches down. The illustration took me for a ride and I’m not gonna lie. I kinda enjoyed it. As it progressed, it felt like an album cover so why not?
I drew this mechanical horse. I had this idea of making my favorite animal with gears and plates and all kinds of weird stuff. Eventually it grew into this large drawing. Mechanical Horse - Mixed Media (Ink and Procreate) - Janelle Dimmett 2026 - www.janelledimmett.com
A slice of cake topped with vibrant red raspberries drips with rich sauce onto a dark purple plate. The background features a blue lattice pattern, complementing the dessert's vivid colors.
This is a commissioned doodle illustrating someone’s dreams. This was drawn with a fineliner on A1 paper with no pencilling or pre-planning. As you can tell!
Samuel Beckett (1906–1989)
On a late-night walk near Dublin harbor, Beckett found himself standing on the end of a pier in the midst of a winter storm. Amid the howling wind and churning water, he suddenly realized that the “dark he had struggled to keep under” in his life—and in his writing, which had until then failed to find an audience or meet his own aspirations—should, in fact, be the source of his creative inspiration.
“I shall always be depressed,” Beckett concluded, “but what comforts me is the realization that I can now accept this dark side as the commanding side of my personality. In accepting it, I will make it work for me.”
