Starting next week, I'm going back to college. I'm very excited for my courses, especially art & writing. It will be a great opportunity to explore my curiosities, improve my art skills, and grow as a person. I will share my art assignments if my instructors allow it. I would also like to write a little about each piece, which may be required for my assignments anyway.
Lately, I've been inspired by fantasy & fairytale artwork. I think fantasy & horror will make good focuses for my pre-BFA portfolio. This was a little experiment with a fairytale aesthetic. One of my goals is to use limited art supply sets & swap out colours as they run out. I feel the first colours I picked out fit with aesthetic well.
I'm proud of this drawing, especially the dress & the night sky. However, I can see some areas that I should've done differently. I'm not happy with the proportions & foreshortening of the limbs. Also, I shouldn't have used a background colour for the flowers. I added the colour to cover up a smear from the watercolour. I should avoid making large areas of solid colour, especially with my coloured pencils. I am learning & improving.
Depicting a serene landscape, the mountain rises majestically with its reflection mirrored in the tranquil lake beneath. Surrounded by lush green trees and a pale sky with a passing cloud, the scene evokes a sense of peace and natural beauty. The use of bold outlines gives the image a whimsical, almost cartoonish feel.
I saw someone's post about making a zine from a week’s worth of phone photos. I decided to do it by month and in a booklet.
Turns out, most of the pictures I take are cats.
Here is the beginning of August...
At seventy-five years old I strive to remain engaged with modern technology though I admit it can be overwhelming at times. The internet evolves rapidly and cryptocurrency in particular often feels like an entirely foreign language. Sadly I discovered just how confusing it can be when I became the victim of a sophisticated scam. I received an email claiming I had inherited Bitcoin from a distant relative. The correspondence appeared legitimate complete with legal jargon, official seals and documents that looked authentic. All I was required to do they said was pay certain processing and legal fees in cryptocurrency to release the funds. It seemed credible and not wanting to lose the opportunity I complied. By the time I recognized the deception I had lost nearly $40,000.The experience left me devastated. Beyond the financial damage I felt humiliated, ashamed and unsure where to turn. Thankfully my grandson intervened and introduced me to Salvage Asset Recovery. From my very first conversation with them I sensed a genuine difference. Rather than treating me with condescension they approached me with patience, empathy and respect. They assured me that countless people of all ages fall prey to such schemes. That compassion was the first sign I had finally found trustworthy allies.The team at Salvage Asset Recovery carefully outlined the recovery process in language that was clear, concise and easy for me to follow. They set realistic expectations, explained each step in detail and promised to provide consistent updates. True to their word I received daily progress reports and thoughtful explanations. That steady communication restored a measure of calm and gave me confidence that I was not alone.What impressed me most was their relentless professionalism and persistence. The investigators at Salvage Asset Recovery pursued my case with remarkable diligence skillfully tracing the stolen funds. Their determination never wavered and it was obvious they genuinely cared about restoring what I had lost. Their unwavering focus reignited hope at a time when I felt utterly defeated.After weeks of effort they achieved what I had considered impossible. Salvage Asset Recovery successfully recovered $35,000 of the $40,000 I had lost. The relief and gratitude I felt cannot be overstated. Thanks to their expertise I regained not only a substantial portion of my savings but also my faith in honest principled people.If you have ever been defrauded I wholeheartedly recommend Salvage Asset Recovery. They are compassionate, dependable and unyielding in their commitment to justice.

A boat floats at the center of swirling, vibrant blue waves, creating a sense of motion and energy. The contrast between the warm tones of the boat and the cool hues of the water highlights the image's dynamic composition.
Got started on the classic show again and got the urge to draw out the greatest evil that ever crossed our screens. Though with the twist of showing the Great Evil in a more desolate, ruined presentation.
What do you guys think?
...as my daughter says. Watercolour on watercolour paper. Mixing all the greens was real fun. I enjoyed every minute of creating this piece. And, of course, the first person I showed it to, found some fault with it...
For Julesthetic Day 26, today's aesthetic is techcore.
For this day, I decided to make this little mosh pit based on a cell phone with various apps on a tech background
Band logo and linocut artwork for a band. The image was actually cut from Lino and printed from which a digital scan was taken to make a silkscreen for printing.
