A photo of a pink linoleum bloc. On it are pencil drawings of two crows, various blades, two figs and a frog climbing mushrooms. Nothing is carved yet. A photo of the same designs as before but completely carved, each design cut out of the main bloc. It also shows two crowns that have been cut from the left over linoleum. You can see the little cutouts bits in a box in the corner.

One of the things I am proud of is how consistently I have been sketching in my diary. As I am reaching the end of this notebook, here are some of my favorite pages (once my water bottle opened in my bag, so some of the illustrations got altered 🥲)

🦇+🪲= latest collab with @buyanisle.bsky.social
This Bat Beetle is such a cool piece!

How does a collab works? We draw together back and forth, and then we tattoo at the same time if the spots allows it!

Done at Patchwork Art Studio

Happy New Year! ⭐ I spent my day outside, witnessing the incredible Canadian nature and landscapes. Gotta be back to sketching in my journal, that's a resolution for sure ✏️ !
A photo of two orange mushrooms on wet grass. They are very curly and textured. A photo of the sea view. The grey cloudy sky stretches to a far away city line. The shore is rocky and full of floating timber, you can guess some islands and pines in the distance.
