#madeupanimals

Day 6 of #10dayartchallenge I was nominated by @debrenee13 to post 10 works (old or new) for 10 days with 0 explanation, and nominate another artist with each post. It’s all about promoting positivity and sharing our passion for our art/craft. I’m not nominating anyone, but please take this as an open invite to jump in if you’d like to play along #penandink#penandinkdrawing#inkdrawing#madeupanimals#danielsmithwatercolors#artjournal#sketchbookdrawing#madebymixy https://www.instagram.com/p/CgMJfT-INa3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Arriving to the point I call *done* can be so sticky, I gallop up to about the 80% mark then I find myself noodling about in a labyrinth of ideas that I can’t get out of. (Partly because I like it in there). All this to say, here’s another sketchbook/art journal I’m having trouble getting out of. The pages are heavy with collage and paint, torn out, torn up, glued back in another place. This is a book I began in January 2020, so not only is it a year and a half in the making, it’s been *this particular year and a half*, which as we all know is outside of linear time… For all these reasons, the much promised flip through is still a way away, meanwhile here are some horsey friends who have shown up in the pages. #madeuphorses #madeupanimals #overstuffedsketchbook #mixedmediacollage #allthecolours #reallynearlytherenow https://www.instagram.com/p/CRTFLVWFkIE/?utm_medium=tumblr
