(Taken before I got my new computer, obviously— if you’ve been following the saga this week in stories you’ll know it’s been... a lot! And still continuing to be a lot! Stay tuned for more updates!) It was requested that I share an un-staged photo of my workspace, so here you go! Hopefully it seems pretty similar to what you normally see here, since I don’t like to be deceptive. Just a few more papers and whatnot on my desk, but otherwise I’m a pretty tidy person 🥰 . . . . . . . . . . #studioscenes #inthestudio #studiogoals #workspacegoals #insidethestudio #studiolife #doitfortheprocess #wip #workinprogress #onmydesk #artistprocess #artistworking (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLM5kHglAet/?igshid=11tikdowpk50b

Made this cute little card for my mom for Mother’s Day (now that she has it, I can show you!) Can you guess which plant inspired it? 🤔😂 . . . . . . . . . . . . . #studioscenes #inthestudio #studiogoals #workspacegoals #insidethestudio #studiolife #doitfortheprocess #wip #workinprogress #onmydesk #artistprocess #artistworking #plantlife #succulentlove #succulentaddict #plantsmakemehappy #plantgang #plantparenthood #gouacheillustration #gouachepainting #gouacheartist #moreillustrations #illustrationhowl #illustrationlove #illustreak #illustratedimpact #illustratorsoninstagram #lifeofanillustrator #illustratorlifestyle #illustratorlife (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAIpSgvlipV/?igshid=1qjf4c6pa9er7

Important question: if I made a postcard set with these moths (like my Travel West series) would you buy them? . . . . . . . . . . . . #illustrationforkids #childrenbookart #childrenillustrator #magic_of_illustrations #picturebookillustration #magicillustration #gouachepainting #gouache #digitalpainting #originalpainting #illustrationoftheday #artfinder #gouacheillustration #mothillustration #doitfortheprocess #wip #workinprogress #onmydesk #artistprocess #artistworking #womenwithpencils #visiblewomen #womenartists #womenofillustration #womenwhodraw #femaleillustrator #austinartist #atxartist #personalwork #cutemoth (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9rjz2oFY0D/?igshid=1w47b19nxtatr

🦋 I don’t paint traditionally very often anymore, but it’s always nice to pull out the gouache tubes for old times’ sake. It’s usually a little nerve-wracking, since I’ve grown comfortable with my control-z and Photoshop layers, but most of the time I’m pleasantly surprised to find I’m not *terribly* rusty with a real brush. Swipe to see this moth up close! . . . . . . . . . . . . . #gouachepainting #gouache #digitalpainting #originalpainting #illustrationoftheday #artfinder #doitfortheprocess #wip #workinprogress #onmydesk #artistprocess #artistworking #womenwithpencils #visiblewomen #womenartists #womenofillustration #womenwhodraw #femaleillustrator #austinartist #atxartist #supportlivingartists #femaleillustration #icandraw #artguide_illustration #weareillustration #illustration_society #illustragram #contemporaryillustration #moreillustrations #illustrationhowl (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4u0Ai7lmfl/?igshid=n0soqts04qva

I don’t paint traditionally much anymore, even though that was what made me “unique” from my peers, when I graduated college. The convenience of Photoshop slowly took over my professional life, because it just made so much more sense for my clients, my projects, and my time. . 🕰 . But I feel torn about it still, when I see my tubes of gouache sitting there, neglected. I embrace the technology that’s allowed me to grow as an artist, but I think I need to spend some more time with the roots of my illustration career. (Plant themed post: see what I did there? 🤣😅) . 🌱 . Do you have a skill you feel bad about abandoning, art-related or not?
