Gouache on paper, plant shapes 🌱

Some skies. We do pretend we live on a mountain. But it’s just a hill.

Soon I will move these paintings around. #wallof100paintings

And these are books I have started, half-used, or haven’t begun yet! I will get to them. I think of these when I buy new books. But I buy new books anyway. Bc it brings me joy and delight, maybe too much fulfillment.

These are the five journals I am using currently! 😬

Someone had asked me how many completed journals/sketchbooks I have, and these are the ones I filled out in the past several years. I have also a plastic bin full of diaries dating back to 1991 so I’m not including those lol. I have always taken to a book. #painting #artjournaling #sketchbook #collage #creativelifehappylife #getmessyartjournal #carveouttimeforart #collage #artjournaleveryday

Very big one. 5x5 feet? Painted over an old painting I had hanging in my living room. My favorite part is the light spots, but those are just from the sun. Better add those in. Very helpful for working large: Marabu art crayons.

My little angel of a sweet hearted little pug. Tonight she passed away. She meant a lot to me, she was my tiny little companion. She would snuggle with me on the couch. She made everybody laugh and feel a lot of joy bc of her very long tongue and constant snorting. She was tough. She was afraid of the smoke alarm and fireworks. She would eat anything, including all vegetables. She snored sweetly, a perfect warm little loaf of bread. She was from Tumwater, Washington. She did not like the rain. She was my baby and I am so sad to say goodbye to her. Rest peacefully Roxy, Sugarbag, Uglianna, Miss Madam, Snarla, Lil Pug, Honey Pug, my velvet piglet.

One of the 18372 sketchbooks I am currently using is this altered book 🌟
