I do these in alcohol inks but I have pages and pages of doodles in B/W and Colored Pencil or Markers in my sketch books of these far away things....oteresa

I have been lucky enough to have the opportunity to paint a design on a rather large gorilla! I am so excited to do this. It's taking an age but getting there slowly. When he's all done he will be going on show at Paignton Zoo.

Turned this guy into a sticker. I have him on my laptop because he makes me laugh.

Not quite what you think you see, look closer, creating that perfect moment at the end of the day

It's starting to feel a little bit fall-like around here so I'm playing with some new colors.

There's a phone in Graham's Up the Tree and kids will have no clue what they're looking at or how those "buttons" work.

Mysterious castle

Platinum's 3776 Century nib is even bigger than Pilot's 912 nib. Used both on this little boom box pizza party.

Oil pastels on board. I used terpenoid to blend the pastels like paint on the canvas. From my latest art class.

For this piece I used acrylic paints and acrylic markers. My inspiration was my love of tattoo flash and traditional/neo-traditional tattoo designs. I grew up flipping through pages of tattoo flash catalogues and the art inside was a huge influence in my own art. Some of these pieces are my versions of popular designs and some are originals.

Forsythia is in full bloom, and the cherries, magnolia, and dogwoods are next. Spring is here!

Vine Charcoal and Oil Pastel make for a messy, smudgy experience. A certain amount of messiness can make a process feel more real and human. When things aren’t perfectly polished, it reflects a genuine effort, imperfections, and growth. In personal life, letting go of the need for everything to be tidy can promote a more authentic existence. The hat is a Stormy Chromer. It also evolved out of a mess. More on that later. Peace.
