California artist (and former classical flutist) I’m passionate about the arts, animals, and nature.
Recent pages in my tiny sketchbook, these were all done with Posca acrylic marker pens. #sketchbook #artist #art #artprocess #artjournal #posca #acrylicpainting #sketchbookflipthrough

This is my new 4 x 6“ sketchbook dedicated to acrylic studies. The small size gives me a low pressure place to explore lots of different ideas very quickly. 🥰 PS-Once dry I put a very light coat of wax medium over the pages so they won’t stick! #art #artist #sketchbook #acrylicpainting #abstractart

Flip through of some of my sketchbook work this week. It has become my calming space where I go to try to relieve some of my news-induced anxiety! #art #artist #sketchbook #acrylicpainting #watercolor #abstractart #abstractpainting #artjournal #arttherapy

I spent most of yesterday working on this concertina #sketchbook. An ongoing project that I dip into every few months or so, it still has a long way to go before I call it done. But it’s fun to revisit it with fresh eyes & just let my ideas flow.

I made a stack of quick black-and-white sketches yesterday of various views at Yosemite. Trying to figure out how to move forward to make collages, but I really love the simplicity of black-and-white! #sketch #blackandwhite #artistprocess #artprocess #art #ink #inkdrawing #inksketch #artist

I’m currently busy making monoprints with acrylics on my gel plate, trying to get lots of different colors and textures. I will cut them up to use in some future collages (or at least that’s my plan), so I can never have too many options!

I just finished filling this sketchbook with floral paintings, mostly done in watercolor, and a few in acrylic. Very happy to meet my goal and finish this project. Onwards to my next art endeavors! 🥰
