My art archive, Feb 19, ink drawing from my sketchbook. A little harlequin juggler.

Well, that was fun. Had oral surgery with serious sedation, but man, that guy was quick! The whole thing took less than an hour. My face is swollen, my mouth is still bleeding a bit, but I have Tylenol with codeine so I’ll just sleep the rest of the day.

My art, Feb 18. Ink doodle from a sketchbook, looking vaguely like a horse, for Year of the Horse. I think it looks like a smudgy charcoal cave painting.

My art archive, Feb 17. Doll made of torn fabric. She wears matching satin ribbons with ornaments, earrings, and a jewel in her hair.

Art archive Feb 16. Lost Glove, photograph.

If you see this, post a rabbit 🐇

I’m having trouble keeping up with posting every day from my art archive. But here’s something for Feb 15th. A digital mosaic, a Roman goddess.

My art archive, Feb 14, (I may have missed a day) an embroidery for Valentines Day: Two Hearts As One.

My art archive, Feb 13. A black cat for Friday the 13th. Simple ink sketch with a little digital color.

artists! quote with something silly! :•)

My art archive, Feb 11. A small etching, an experiment with aquatint and open bite etching. Image size 2 inches x 4 inches. "Pohaku" means stone or foundation in Hawaiian.

This is a revelation. And it makes so much sense.

Art archive, Feb 10. More of my tiny etchings, 1.5 in x 1 in. A woman on the beach in a pareu, and a woman lying prone in a pose reminiscent of Gaughin’s paintings in Tahiti.

My art archive, Feb 9. Etching, 1 inch square, Girl In a Chair. Loosely based on me in my yukata, sitting in a big comfy chair.

This is brilliant!

What matters is how we show up. Mutual aid. Small acts. Open hands. Shared hope. Kindness spreads fast when people help people. Let this inspire you. Be the reason today feels lighter for someone else.

My art archive, Feb 8. The rocks at Joshua Tree in California are amazing shapes. There’s something humorous about this little (1 inch square) etching.

My art archive, Feb 7. Another of my favorite etchings, River Bend. A masterpiece of fine-line etching and aquatint. The solid black of the river and the gradation in the upper section are the most difficult to accomplish in aquatint.

My art archive, Feb 6. One of my all time favorite etchings, Punx.

My art archive, Feb 5. Another gourd, this time showing the painted inside. Spirals have always been one of my favorite motifs.

This is amazing. I love tiny things. www.facebook.com/reel/1470554...

Today’s art, Feb 4. For a while I made these painted gourds. They were lined with washi paper and painted on the inside. This one I made for a friend to give her brother as a wedding present. I have to admit, it’s gorgeous.

I made the mistake of having doctors appointments two days in a row. I should know better. I’m exhausted from stress. It’s going to take days to recover.

Today’s art, Feb 3. Drawing from a photo of a mummy, a female wearing boots. I don’t remember where I originally saw this, but there is a note that S.W.U.S. so I guess it’s Southwestern US?

My art, day 33 (Feb 2). The Red Forest. This was just an experiment with various techniques that I can’t even remember now, but it’s pretty interesting

I Carry A Torch For You*

Day 32 (Feb 1), my art. One of my favorite prints. It won a couple of awards in print shows, but only after I changed the title from Tea Party to Miss Otis Regrets. (some of you will get the reference)

This is who runs this account.

Day 31, my art. So far I’ve managed to keep posting for a month. I wonder if I can make it to a year. Digital mosaic, Chicken and Egg. This is based on a mosaic from a Roman dining room floor. Romans loved chickens and birds as motifs.

Timely! 🙌🏻 Lizzy & The Triggermen sing Irving Berlin's anti-Hitler protest song 1941. 🎵 When they lay him 12 ft deep I'll be there to laugh not weep Satan thought up a plan Dressed as a man & since he began the world is Hell for you & me What a Heaven it will be When that man is dead & gone 🎵 💯

Hilariously brilliant!

My art, day 30. Digital version of my miniature Egyptian etching.

Interesting article, but my favorite line is '…as a side effect he believed the gun would "convince the Turks of the benefits of Christian civilisation".' www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-engl...

the foreign descriptions of what is going on are hilarious and terrifying www.youtube.com/shorts/SfzuV...

Yay, we finally have WiFi back! After about 24 hours.

Day 29 of my art, another drawing from one of my old sketchbooks. I feel the mood.

I love this! www.facebook.com/reel/8066174...

My art, day 28. A paisley shape from when I was learning Procreate. I don’t use it much anymore.

The internet (or rather Spectrum) has been down in my neighborhood since last night. Now they’re saying it will be another three hours. It’s not like they can blame the weather…maybe they will say it’s ash from the volcano.

My art, day 27. From the sketchbooks, musicians and mummies.

Sounds like a dream (temp) job for a lot of people. www.facebook.com/reel/2055323...

Day 26 of my art. More shoes.

Day 25, a couple more of my shoe drawings. I still may make a "The Year in Shoes" calendar.

The volcano is raining cinders and ash on Volcano Village. People are being evacuated. www.facebook.com/reel/1568389...

Today’s art (day 24) Just some silly doodles from my sketchbook; Ribbon People and Two Pears.

Day 23 (bit late), Valentine theme embroidery, Winged Cupid, 4 inch diameter.

Day 22, another Valentine themed embroidery. Love Letter, 4 inch diameter. (For sale, DM me if you’re interested)

An anthem for our time.

Day 21. Since it’s coming up on Valentine’s Day, I’m going to post my Valentine embroidery pieces. These will be for sale, DM me if you’re interested. This one can be personalized with an initial in the center. 4 inches in diameter, comes with loop for hanging.
