Watercolor. Artist trading card, 2.5x3.5 inches.

Finished! Only two remain in my pile of old (ive been ignoring you for too long) ink drawings. These mushrooms were part of a set of three and now they are all done. I will make a seperate post with them all together. . . #mushrooms #watercolorpainting #windsorandnewton #inkdrawing #sakuraofamerica #illustration #illustration_daily #art #instaart #dailyart #atc #artisttradingcard #mailart #artistofinstagram #canadianartist #smallart #natureart #naturelovers

I finished up this Cabinet of Curiosities atc (check out my previous post for the ink drawing). The theme is japanese cats. :) . . #cabinetofcuriosities #cats #atc #artisttradingcard #japan #fanart #art #illustration #watercolorpainting #miniature #mailart #artistofinstagram #illustration_daily #hellokitty #kikisdeliveryservice #origami #manekineko #micronpenart

I have all of these drawings inked! I swear I have had a few of these waiting in the wings for over a year. Did I mention im having trouble getting motivated? Im fighting the good fight though, and im going to feel so much better getting these finished. Onward and upward! . . #workinprogress #inkdrawing #art #artisttradingcard #procrastinationatitsfinest #lifeofanartist #atc #aceo #mailart #mentalhealth #depressionrecovery

Life stress has made me neglect my social media! Here is a clip from an #illustration I did few weeks ago for @kebarronwrites and her book #eyeofverishten #icegolem #icemonster #fantasyart #watercolorpainting #art

Now I have 2 little nests. #graphitepencil #graphiteart #birdnest #alvindraftmatic #mabdraftmaticpencils #eggs #illustration #blackandwhite #drawing #arttrades #dailyart #instaart #albertaartist #yycarts #mailart #twinchies #illustratedatcs

There is nothing quite so pure and satisfying as a straight up graphite drawing. #drawing #graphiteart #graphitepencil #instaart #dailyart #nest #eggs #birdsnest #illustration #blackandwhite #square #albertaartist #yycarts #2x2 #natureart #canadianartist
