Title: Never Forget. A quick piece I made today. I wanted to go abstract so the viewer can put their own meaning into the piece, but each paint stroke I made I had September 11th in mind. Digitally painted with watercolor in Rebelle 5 on a simple white canvas and sent over to PS.

My first try of lino cut

Tidbits of things overheard in the pub earlier this week when I was short of inspiration = this.

Yesterday’s Magnetic Fields gig and current affairs fuelled the flames for this one, as did pink dolphins.

My girlfriend's words inspired this one, for which I’m forever grateful! :-P :-D

I wanted to capture an introspective feeling and show the Detroit River's expansiveness. I went with a late summer sunset vibe with lots of warm pinks and cool blues.

My average 8-9 hour slumber in a nutshell! It's a miracle I function, quite honestly.

Going through a phase of drawing and painting "tall things"... drawn in Copic Multiliners, dash of colour added in Affinity Photo.

Shea Coulee is an amazing performer and personality. Her recent work and Instagram feed were the inspiration for this piece. Each layer is digitally painted, but I love the overall screen print feel.

Felt inspired by this week's drawing prompt. Went with a Star Trek scene. Earth Spacedock from the movies always leaves me in awe. Tried to show it with its doors opening so you could see there is an inside. The starship's scale and perspective are off, but that is meh.

Named after a malapropism of my doing, one that makes my girlfriend snigger like mad it seems. :-P

A girl in bubbles inspired clothes based on a drawing prompt. Bic pen and copic marker on my sketchbook :)

Me in blossom inspired clothes from a cute prompt on instagram. Bic pen and copic marker

Just some warm up doodles. Bic pen in my sketchbook!

I finally finished this piece for my Aunt. It was based on a goofy picture she sent me. I am pleased with the depth I achieved and can see improvements. I am not most experienced with portraits or anatomy/characters.

Before I got into digital painting, I was putting together digital collages. I love digital collages, but most of them are a bit too literal/pop art for me. No diss on pop art; I create a lot in that style. But, I wanted to make a smoother, more blended collage for my profile pic.

Inspired by a recent experience I had during a trip to the bank, and just reflection on “masks” we wear in general I suppose.

Sharks in questioning waters.

I keep coming back to this Vice headline I saw and took a screenshot of this time last week, which inspired the title of this piece. Seems like a relevant metaphor to me (and others I know) for so many reasons right now! Thankfully nothing too traumatic in my case...

It might be that Spirit arranged it for a little personal time with you.

Winding down on a Wednesday with more of the same... all the sharks!

Rabbit-eared whales because... well, why not?

Reminds me of a Buddhist proverb: Patiently I will bear harsh words as the elephant bears arrows on the battlefield. Words are powerful. They stir emotions. We are the managers of our emotions. It is not what happens to us that is the issue, it is our opinion of what happens to us that is the issue. Peace.

Kept myself occupied during a quiet day at work earlier by getting a head-start on things here, and my word it was quiet! Well...ish (towards the end that is).
