RIP Drew Struzan.
May we meet again, in the clearing, at the end of the path.

While I patiently wait for this tariff situation to fix itself, so I can get book two printed, I'll share some art from the Ancient Ones series.

Titled Morningstar. I created it while trying not to spiral out during the pandemic. I felt like the escape also meant freedom to get back to art.

My Ninja Turtles card from Magic the Gathering was revealed!

Art from the Magic Card “Turtles Forever”
The four teenage mutant ninja turtles appear in a multiverse crossover. Donatello appears to be from the old live action movie, Raphael from the Fred Wolf TV cartoon, Leonardo from the Magic the Gathering TMNT universe, and Michelangelo from the Mirage comics. They are fist bumping and noogie-ing each other in front of a bright cityscape background. Ninjas lay scattered and defeated behind them.

I sorta do the same thing. Not as diligent.

No matter what you decide to do in life, you're going to piss someone off - no way around it. The secret is to make sure you're mainly pissing off the people who detract from your goals. One of the most liberating things you'll learn, in life, is that you don't need everyone to like you to succeed.

My friends and I have a saying, you either contribute or you contaminate. Focus on the positive. No one likes a naysayer.

"It’s funny to think about the things in your life that can make you cry just knowing that they existed, can then become the same thing that make you cry knowing that they’re now gone. I think those things come into our lives to help us get from one place to a better one."
- Ted Lasso

“If you are willing to look at another person’s behavior toward you as a reflection of the state of their relationship with themselves rather than a statement about your value as a person, then you will, over a period of time cease to react at all." - Yogi Bhajan

Grisella's Treehouse 🌿
Watercolor + Gouache
For my book-in-progress, all about the Woolbeasts.

I keep pulling the 9 of coins lately. I'm certainly not feeling it at the moment, but that's a perspective thing. Deep breaths and deep gratitudes. Take a moment to look out at the garden.

Watercolor painting in bright greens and oranges and purples: A purple tree curves around the picture with huge orange fruits growing from it. Dotted around the branches are small blue creatures. The fruit in the foreground appears to actually be a treehouse with balconies and windows. A lady stands at the main balcony with a cup of tea. I would like to live there.
