Dumped out all of my sock yarn hexagons and counted them. I've knitted 111. I need around 300 to sew them all together into a blanket. Still haven't decided whether or not to do half hexagons to make the edges straight.

I did this one in layers. The pink layer was actually first. It's an acrylic paint pen. The red layer is an ink brush pen, so it didn't really mark over the acrylic and ends up looking like the background.

I honestly thought this was going to be a lost cause. It looked so crappy when I started that I almost tore the page out. It was a lesson in trusting the process.

I pretty much always do this with ink. That may change now that I've experienced colored pencil changing the whole feel of it.

I've been working on this all week. Just letting emotions flow with the paint first, then the ink. I think it's finished now. It has that feeling of "one more line would be one too many".

My new cards are here! This tarot deck was made by the same woman who made the Southern Gothic and Southern Botanical Oracle decks, and the design matches with those decks. I also supported the Kickstarter on the level to get the playing cards added.
I'm probably going to disappear for a few days and then excitedly talk about the cards when anyone finds me!
Inktober, day 31 - I made it all the way! One drawing or painting each day. Happy Halloween to the little dragons seeking treasure!

Inktober, day 30. "Ghost in the closet". I was halfway done when I thought, "Who has this much space in their closet?"

My dorodango is finished! Made from dirt from my yard, water, and a lot of jokes about rubbing my balls.

Dorodango update: The mudball is as smooth as I can get it. Just minor differences that you have to pay attention and feel for. The cracks are filled in, and I like how it looks like a turtle shell, but I don't know if the lines will stay or blend in as it dries more.

Inktober, day 28. Sometimes the difference between "art" and "a mess" is presentation.
I just randomly painted sections of the paper. Once it was dry, I went back and outlined where colors change.

Inktober, day 27. I've got a lot of pain today, so this is like notes for a future drawing. It's looking at a portal from a side view, so the portal is a line between two worlds.
#CoSoArt
Mudball update : It's as round as it's getting. Now I'm sprinkling little bits of dry dirt on and gently rubbing it. The dirt acts as a fine abrasive, and it also gets massaged into any tiny cracks and holes to fill them.
