And here's the sketch.

Damn thank you, that was indeed a typo.

That feeling of being excited about something, then suddenly feeling guilty 'cause it’s simply something that brings YOU joy, especially when there're so many more important things going on right now. My messed up mind wouldn’t let me sleep last night so I tried to paint the feeling outta my system.

Trying hard to hold on to a sense of positivity and notice the small, quiet moments that still matter...even while everything around me feels like it’s falling apart and I find myself sitting here on my own.

My breakfast is spreading a little love today.

I’ll gladly accept partial responsibility for that transformation!
But you probably had the wolfaboo spirit in you already, I might’ve just… nudged it out of the forest a little. ^^

That Ragnarok painting was such a joy to work on. I still remember creating it together as if it were yesterday and it continues to hold a very special place for me.

Love these little critters.

So happy for you!

I still remember making those refsheets back on DA and never imagining that people would still remember them years later. Knowing that you’ve followed these characters since then means a lot to me, to hear that they've been part of people’s lives for so long.

Found a bunch of nice treestumps.

I’m still undecided whether the paintings I recently finished will end up listed there, or if I’ll save them for the next con, MMC this year. I had to skip that con last year because I couldn’t figure out a way to get there, so I’m really glad that it looks like it will be possible again this time.

I headed out for a hike through the forests that stretch around the ranch, to soak up the sun and do a small art photoshoot along the way. Stopping here & there to capture little moments, textures that caught my eye and gather a few new images for my work, take some product photos for my shop.

There’s been a lot of work in the garden: after 15 years here, several trees have died and had to be cut down, as they’d started to pose a real risk of falling onto me or my trailer. And I have to continue with all the things I have to fix on my trailer, which I didn't manage to finish last autumn.

Spring is on the way.

I also finally finished some proper art after almost four months without, aside from a few postcards. I just couldn’t find the time or energy to scan and post anything. It’s been one crash after another from constantly overdoing it.

Love this!

So cool!

Same here.

I also do a bit of post-processing, though usually very minimal. Mostly some contrast and saturation to bring out colors that were already there but not very visible. It helps me with painting studies.

I have been at this spot several times, on most days the sunrise was not really spectacular so i'm really happy I was able to catch this shot.

Yeah, 16° here at least.

Treestump with mushrooms.

The temperatures are finally rising.

I love your traditional art so much!

Temperatures are supposed to go up tomorrow. So looking forward...

Wow!

It is well isolated despite two of my windows. I unfortunately don't have battery storage for my solar panels, otherwise that could work.

Just knowing people would show up and help already warms things more than the oven does. Thank you, really. But I really wouldn’t want you driving on the icy roads here. Two days ago things melted a bit, then froze over again and now everything’s basically one big ice field.
