Oooh hello new visitors! And thank you for the spotlight feature @omi!! 💕 I'm glad everyone likes my color studies so much. I took a looooong break this last year from The Practice of little paint studies to work on books and other things ... but I'm anxious to get back to it! (And maybe sneak in a little development for new characters and stories??? WHO KNOWS!!!) I'm not giving up doodling little guys, but I'll leave what I'm working on for the smol frens a secret for now ;D
How do you feel about taking breaks from things you love doing? I felt a little burned out on painting last winter, which was why I decided to stop for a bit ... that, and I felt like changing styles from "paint" to "cartoon" to work on comics was a little hard on my brain ... but in that absence I kinda saw the process and routine with new eyes? Coming back, I am trying to be more careful about finding new things to keep myself interested and fresh.
Anyway, just some thoughts ~ I have a deadline this week ... Thanksgiving is next week ... I'm excited for pie!!
Hello everyone!

Hi friends!
Happy ... late June ??? Did this month go by fast for anyone else ??? I swear it was just May haha. Anyway, here's a little recap of how things are going for me!
It was my birthday month!! I took a whole week off work and spent some time reading, slow-pace creating, and my brothers took me to a local natural history museum + planetarium. It was so much fun!!
I got some edits back on a new book project and everything looks great for next steps. Related to this ... I should probably start writing my next script soon, too ... but I'm taking a little breather while my ideas firm up ... such is the pipeline of stacking projects!!
Hope you've been well and spending some nice summer days refueling and energizing💕
Is anyone doing artfight this year? I signed up with my OC acc ... I'm feeling ready to attack some pals!! >:D
