So I guess you could say I've been a bit busy. Life kinda got in the way, but I'm back now and I'll be posting more up as I scan them in. #myottawa #igersottawa #instaottawa #coloringbook #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #practicemakesprogress #doitfortheprocess #artistssupportingartists #hacktheflow #poweredbycaffee #flowreach #ottawaartist #icad2020 #collageart #woodcanvas #catchingup #artinthetimeofcorona #covidart #psychedelicart #robot #patternartist #bagels #artiststudio #artgoals #linework #guache #artexperiment #artprint #wallart #emergingartist (at Ottawa Capital Of Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGde8IrFURb/?igshid=1806cpcyn1na3

Early summer when we were stuck at home (the og part one, not this sucky sequel) I decided to try my hand at @gypsy999 #icad2020 challenge. To the best of my knowledge I was only able to make it to about 3 weeks in however it gives me the opportunity to try new mediums and subject matter. Due to the fact that they have to be done on Index cards it means that you arent spending as much time on them which means you dont get too invested while you're trying new things #myottawa #igersottawa #instaottawa #patterndesign #patterninspiration #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #practicemakesprogress #doitfortheprocess #artistssupportingartists #hacktheflow #poweredbycaffee #flowreach #zenflow #ottawaartist #emergingartist #artshow #practicefailure #sketchbook #surfacedesign #flow #ottawaart #artinthetimeofcorona #wereinthistogether #artprint #wallart #slapart #stickerart #pause #icad (at National Capital Region (Canada)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJtfluulDne/?igshid=sc92tobt24cg

Experimentation with colour again. This was completed winter of last year.

Experimenting with creating colouring pages. I used an index card, highlighters, a deli pen, and made photocopies. If there's a will theres a way :) #myottawa #igersottawa #instaottawa #patterndesign #patterninspiration #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #practicemakesprogress #doitfortheprocess #artistssupportingartists #hacktheflow #poweredbycaffee #flowreach #colouringbook #zenflow #ottawaartist #coloringbook #emergingartist #artshow #practicefailure #sketchbook #surfacedesign #flow #ottawaart #artinthetimeofcorona #wearamask #wereinthistogether #artprint #wallart #slapart #stickerart (at National Capital Region (Canada)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJoplnclh9A/?igshid=1tq24dvfscejh

In the before times I was experimenting with flourescent paint and gel pens. It's nice to just play with colours and see how far different mediums can go. This was acrylic paint, watercolour pencil and gel pens on lined school notebook paper. The importance of selecting the correct medium. That is what I feel like I've learned this year. Make sure to have paper that doesnt warp when you put water colour on it, make sure to have paper that doesn't pill when you use certain inks. It's important to have consistency in ones pens as well. Certain inks dont photograph well. Others can be blotchy. I started with Deli 0.5 gel pens, (half the time the ink had dried up)slowly switching to gelly roll(when I erased the pencil lines underneith the ink would erase too.) Now I'm using Sharpie S-Gel which seem to address both issues decent enough. As stated previously, in the month of January I will be posting images of art that at the time I wasn't sure if I should post, (as in they didnt turn out how I had hoped) but now I see them as a lovely step away from the usual expectations, and has let me challenge my style and Improve. #myottawa #igersottawa #instaottawa #patterndesign #patterninspiration #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #practicemakesprogress #doitfortheprocess #artistssupportingartists #hacktheflow #poweredbycaffee #flowreach #sketchbook #notebook #florescent #trippyart #pychedelicart #practicefailure #artinthetimeofcoron #ottawaart #ottawaartist #stickerart #slapart #emergingartist #artshow #artexhibition #wallart #wanderlust #nothingisordinary #albumartwork (at National Capital Region (Canada)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJmcv_5lQC_/?igshid=125gzdv1od3fo

Hey do you remember when it was summer and the sun still graced us with its warmth? I guess we gotta try this winter thing.
