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

Two girls I doodled some time ago, and now turned into these two pages in one of my journals

Trails of the movement of mind.

Let me Skull your thoughts

This page, in one of my own handmade journals, I made after my surgery for Colon Cancer. And I get a lot of comfort from Yana, my sweet cat.

For #day11 the #inktober word is #cruel. Wearing natural fur only because it looks good on you is not a reason for animals to be sacrificed.

the next piece for #inktober environmental issues series continues with #day10 word #flowing. It's quite hard to correlate a situation with a word, but this is how flowing and plastic waste ended up looking like. How much plastic waste do I produce in a day? In a week? How about a year? Nature is full of plastic waste and is overflowing everywhere. In the rivers, seas and oceans... Next time they ask you at the supermarket if you need a plastic bag, think again...

One of the most difficult practices is being ready to accept anything and everything that comes, without judgement, staying in the moment with our experience. This is a powerful practice. I tried to express some essence or feeling of it.

"Dementors are among the foulest creatures that walk this earth. They infect the darkest, filthiest places, they glory in decay and despair, they drain peace, hope, and happiness out of the air around them." - J.K. Rowling

A fun experiment with some left over pieces of matting/framing cardboard. Watercolour, white and black markers.

This #inktober I decided to focus on environmental issues. Because every life is #precious let's think about all that illegal logging.

Making some Christmas ornaments

I've been separating out some floral arrangements and experimenting with colors.

One for all those Inktober folks out there! Rest assured, despite what the verses say here, you're as mad as march hares in the best way possible. :)
