Since I’m now working from home 100% of the time, I transformed my home office into a retro book shop cafe. See more details in my IG post. :)

Some hot book sketchbook doodles for a cartoon I posted a little while back.

The extreme heat and the smoke made for little activity in the yard. There are Wren nests in the making, one of them almost done, and I feel terrible for these tiny creatures that have to be outside in this mess, and I hope they all make it and this will be short-term. There were a lot of fireflies last night, and I made another stacked image. Nature is so beautiful, and humans just seem bent to destroy it. Good night, may tomorrow be a better day for the world ❤️
