Delightful little work in progress on the desk that I have been way too busy to hyper-fixate on like I’ve wanted to.
In other news, I think I want a wolf cut.

Keep a “secret” sketchbook that really is just for sketching and not for sharing on social media. Make it messy, copy other people’s art, and draw from life. It’s just for you, just for practice! (Don’t be intimidated by what some people call sketchbooks that are filled with insta-worthy work.)
Artists, QRP with a practical art "hack" you use. Let's share some wit & knowhow.

Just a few days into 2026 and I’m already way off the intended track. I found an old project I’m now fixated on finishing real quick before I start the three projects I’m actually supposed to do. But hey, I’m inspired!
