Spring clean-ups, bees, and blooms

Well, I spent all day out in the garden yesterday and got a sunburn… I really should know better by now… really, I should… Guess I’m cancelling this week’s IPL face-zapping. And while I’m whining, I think I have a cracked filling. Guess I know what phone calls I...

Whole lotta art stuff going on this week

Another week down. I was at a monotype workshop today, pics on that other post. Speaking of Ricky B., it was time to set up his very own Instagram, even if there’s not real followers yet: https://www.instagram.com/ricky_b_rat/ So, on that note, here’s the favorite Ricky sketch of the week:...

A few monotypes of Ricky B. Rat

So I took a monotype printmaking workshop today up in Ladysmith, same place I took the gelli printing workshop last month. (Explanation of monotypes here. We used Akua inks on plexiglas plates and used a press.) Last time I took a monotype workshop, it was at MISSA and I...

(Insert Pithy Title Here) Weekly Update

Week flew by and I feel like I’ve done nothing… which isn’t true, I think I planted some stuff in the yard. Still sorting out the fraud bullshit I mentioned a while back and that seems to zap my energy. Speaking of zaps, I went for an IPL on...

Prints, rats, and blooms

So, today’s weekly update blog. I spent today taking a gelli printing workshop today up in Ladysmith. I had picked up a couple Gelli plates last year after I took that monotype class at MISSA and intended to get to using them, but kept getting sidetracked. Then I spotted...
