#art Linocut advice, please. Ok, so I did a little soft rubber carving, but didn't like how crumbly and super soft it was, so I finally got my linoleum blocks. But they are grey. I trace my art in graphite and rub to transfer onto a block to carve, but graphite is grey. Will china marker work? What do y'all use?

Was playing around with my portrayal of Persephone, made a coloring page for the kiddo, thought y'all might like one too.

And for the last of today's store updates, I have a pair of drawings that will always make me smile, because I used my 9 week old rescued stray kitten as an art supply.

There are mousepads, so a kitty can be catching your mouse, and a fishy shaped pet food mat. Go crazy cat ladies, go!

Persephone and Hades, The Lord and Lady of the Underworld are now for sale. These are the first of several drawings I've been working on for a few traditionally drawn colored pencil pieces for art prints, rather than things I drew so I could have a cool tote bag or mug.

Is this "liminal"? I know liminal mostly refers to places in transition from one state to another, like a closed school waiting to open again, but this feeling I want to express is more stationary, closer to anxiety or detachment. Looking at the world and not being able to take from it cues if you are safe or not, because normal things have not always been safe, but you're fine and not actually afraid or anxious. You can't come to rest, but you are resting.

In case you are a creative person who likes the aesthetic of the tarot without the desire for the woo-woo, I assure you, tarot is not just used for fortune telling. Go ahead and grab that cool deck you saw, you can use it for creative prompts for art or writing, or for journaling and introspection.

I haven't played with watercolor pencil since I was a teen. Saw this set on clearance a few months ago, finally got around to using it.

Not a bad day's work.

So, I did what I do and took my repeating tile of Venus Flytrap cells and recolored it in vivid and unrealistic ways. Those can all be desktop wallpaper, if you feel so inclined, or let me know if you kind of want it on some Redbubble stuff, I can totally provide that for you.

Drew a repeating tile using old school methods, like the crone I am. Venus flytrap digestive glands from inside the trap, on a leaf with no pigment. That's my desktop wallpaper now.
