As you know if you read a few posts down, due to my health I had to close my larger chronic illness niche blog. It was just too hard to sustain with any consistency at all. Pretty much the same deal with everything really. But I didn't mention I haven't really been able to read… Continue reading I miss fiction writing
On a whim I decided to give acrylics a go. Since I have no idea if I will like it I just got this small beginning pack and these small little canvases. Just to give it a go. This is for a few layers in and I had already cleaned up one time- because it… Continue reading Artwork: Acrylics
I have been focusing a great deal on my art right now. Mostly because I can't actually focus on much of anything. And I can just zone in on drawing. Long-COVID and my Work-In-Progress Novels I have two novels I am really into at the moment. I am completely inspired to write them. I have… Continue reading My focus is very specific right now

Update on the local mental health art exhibit we have locally here. I have a piece of art in it. The style isn't the style I am now working in but it is still a nice piece I think. I have a hard time saying since I am so new to all this and my… Continue reading Mental Health Art exhibit
I have a piece of art in a local exhibit at the art foundry here for mental health awareness month. It was really cool to be accepted for it and I have always supported mental health awareness month. I have a diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder and while that is managed at the moment there… Continue reading The Art of Mental Health Exhibit
I have been playing around with some of my sketches to make some digital art to sell for wall art. Because these sorts of sketches are simple in design and you can play around with them pretty easily to make some cool art. All of which are on my Zazzle store. Woman in Dress style… Continue reading Some digital art
I have not really had any practice with clothing so I thought I would practice some of that for a few days. Here is the first sketch And the second sketch I played around with Anyway, I want to get the shading and flow of clothing practice in for some other works I want to… Continue reading Artwork: Sketching clothing
I have been playing around with different mediums lately. I found some pastels which have been fun to play around with although I only have a small selection of colours. And then is still really like ink and charcoal mixed. This one was actually charcoal and then layered over that was white and gray pastel.… Continue reading Artwork: playing with mixed mediums
Since my laptop has a touch screen I have been tempted to try some digital art. I have never tried anything like that before and I always thought it would be awkward. I don't have a stylus so I was just messing around... finger painting really. I do want a stylus since then I can… Continue reading Artwork: Digital art
I am digging working with ink as a medium lately. But I also like experimenting with charcoal... I just have never been really taught how to do much with it. I should take some tutorials on YouTube or something. But I mean, I haven't actually been taught anything about anything. So nothing new there. Sort… Continue reading Artwork: Ink and Charcoal
I have been drawing with ink a lot lately. Sometimes in black & white but recently playing around with colour as well. Attempting new things mostly. I did this one for Halloween. It turned out a lot better than I thought it would actually. I've never drawn anything like it before. So that was cool.… Continue reading Artwork: working with ink
So since I have been doing my vestibular rehabilitation therapy for vertigo I have been getting worse every day. I thought today I would relax with some art since I can't really focus on much of anything at all. I thought some art would at least be something I could Do that would relax me.… Continue reading Artwork: Black & White portrait in ink
I have been extremely drained lately from my vertigo. That should hopefully change in the near future since I am doing vestibular therapy. But it does mean a real slow pace on pretty much everything lately. I did do a short sketch in ink recently. I have wanted to practice some ink work and plan… Continue reading Artwork: Face sketch in ink
It has been difficult to do any artwork lately with my vertigo acting up. So it has been a bit of a struggle to do much of anything. Nevertheless, I try to do a little bit of something I enjoy everyday. My latest art project is waterproof ink and watercolour. It is just something I… Continue reading Artwork: ink and watercolour
I have these watercolour pencils that I decided to give a go with today. They are interesting. I don't really know much about watercolours yet anyway so it is all an exploration. It was just a quick piece because I have been exceptionally dizzy today. Just my vestibular condition acting up. See more artwork: FacelessMigraine… Continue reading Artwork: Watercolour pencils
I have a thing for faceless images. Something to do with masks and the unseen. And the Look of the Other that sees but never actually Sees. Likely because I'm chronically ill with invisible disabilities. I am very used to judgement but also just not being seen at the very same time. But it is… Continue reading Artwork: faceless
It was a particularly lazy day for me. Did a little editing and art after recovering from a migraine. See more art Light touchInk art doodlesFigure pose in two mediums
I've been doing some work on my figures with different practice on poses. As well as exploring other things to develop my skills. This has been a great hobby during the pandemic for sure. When I am not writing it gives me an alternate creative outlet to explore. This is the most recent pose in… Continue reading Artwork: Figure pose in two mediums
So it is the end of the year. A year of my new hobby in drawing. It has been an interesting progression I think. I spent a lot of time of figure work because I enjoy it but not the entire time. For Christmas I did get some art supplies and some art books. And… Continue reading Artwork: Practicing figure poses
