#art #WIP

Working on a new piece! 🦁🐑💛

I'm still in the composition/layout phase using #procreate, but this one will be a large scale graphite drawing if all goes according to plan 😄

(Also, this drawing will be a part of an upcoming Kickstarter that will launch a months from now 🤫)

Just got word that ✨🌙 Nocturne 🌙✨ will be included in 'Infected by Art V.8! It's such an honor. Thank you so much to the jury at @InfectedByArt and to everyone on the team. 🥰🥰🥰 Congrats to everyone else whose work will be included I can't wait to see it all together!

I'm hoping to be more prolific and efficient but forgiving if life gets complicated.

What changes have you made to increase productivity?

By the way, 12 x 18 prints are now available on my web store if you need more nature in your life! 🦉🌼

'Always' For #inktober 2016, Severus is one of my favorites. When I was #hogwarts age I had awful insomnia and my dad came up with the solution of playing the audiobook CDs thru the night to relax my brain to sleep. Even as a grown up it still helps and is so special to me ☺️

Baby Mandril in ballpoint from 2011! Was #inktober a thing then? I remember drawing this while volunteering for a professor in my last year of college the year I started dating my husband @Vinylpengu ☺️

Is there work in your portfolio that timestamps something special for you?

#inktober '16. At 8 months pregnant I was so proud of myself for finishing tiny 2x2" drawing. It's one of the few older pieces I still really enjoy. Somehow this one got me my first job in food packaging too 🙃

Have you ever gotten -really- unexpected results from your work?

These good bois were from #inktober '16 and were a pivotal piece for me. In my first professional portfolio review by Karla Ortiz at a workshop in Montreal this was the first piece she complimented with the encouragement to keep at it and saying she'll probably see me around
