  • Happy Accidental Success Day

    Happy Accidental Success Day

    I was trying out a different way of getting an inkjet print onto a gel plate, and I am still testing the best way to achieve this, although I think I’ve narrowed things down to a successful process, but I need to test it out a few times. That said, I successfully transferred an inkjet…

  • Yummy Texture

    Yummy Texture

    Today I had a lot of fun making mixed media collage fodder using my gel plates. There’s lots of texture and I upcycled a bunch of used teabags I had been saving, and I’m really happy with the way most of it turned out. I got a nice surprise as the special paper I ordered…

  • Attitude Girl and Wonky Horse

    Attitude Girl and Wonky Horse

    Today’s twenty minute timed sketch. I don’t think I have quite caught her *look* but I’ll go again with this one as she has an energy that I want to capture. I was quite busy in the studio today, and had a more successful day than most have been recently. I started out with a…

  • Mark-making and stamp making

    Mark-making and stamp making

    I have not been playing very much recently, and I have missed guddling in my supplies, starting several things at once, jumping from sketchbook to sketchbook, and following my intuition. Those are my favourite kind of days. Of course I often get to the end of the session and think “yes but what will I…

  • Don’t Draw A Cat

    Don’t Draw A Cat

    If you’ve set the timer for twenty minutes and there’s a human in the picture, because you’ll forget about the human until there’s four minutes left. I haven’t had a lot of chat recently, since the Supreme Court ruling attacked my trans siblings and their right to exist. Today we have the results of local…

    Six Drookit Hares

    I revisited this little project today, making a batch of things that are the same but not the same. Til the morn, Suzanne 438/500

    Today’s twenty minute sketch is a mood. Til the morn, Suzanne 437/500

  • Beauty Spot

    Beauty Spot

    This one needs more than an hour to do the beautiful age lines justice, but this is a good first go. Til the morn, Suzanne 436/500

  • Grey Beanie

    Grey Beanie

    This is a reference I have drawn previously, but never painted. I don’t smoke, so that’s not why I like it, I just like her attitude. I’m definitely feeling that as I’m watching our institutions destroy our Equality legislation. Protect The Dolls Til the morn, Suzanne 435/500

  • Clown

    Clown

    When you start painting a self-portrait and it’s not going the way you like you can either push through the discomfort and ugly phase, or act on an impulse and smear a clown face over it, and that’s what I did today. I could write some things about going beyond the reference, but this was…
