thinking about our real spaces (like how this painting is currently up in a real, visitable art show in LA!) vs. our digital spaces / social media. Lately, i feel a little disoriented in both realms!

on other platforms, there is currently a plea to #FixTheAlgorithm — Anyone else feel like they just never see posts from people they specifically signed up to stay in touch with? IG recently announced it would suppress still images, like those posted by artists and photographers, and show more strangers in your feed. so if there’s an artist you love on here and want to stay connected with, please go to the trouble of ❤️💬 their posts.

The exchange of creativity and ideas and connection with each other is inherently the value of these spaces, not being a conduit for endless paid advertising. Right? thoughts?

I love how every stage of a painting looks *so* different, from scraggly sketches to the color block puzzle of underpainting, but it ultimately lands in a place of feeling “finished”. Magically!

Loved working on this painting commission — I created it to balance with an existing collection of my paintings in their home!

PS- the giveaway in my last post closes in about an hour!

Did you pick up a weird little niche hobby during the pandemic? I became a fountain pen person.

part mindfulness / part mad scientist, i find joy in refilling the ink barrels, mixing my own colors, and hearing the scratching of nib on paper. this is who i am now! All the drawing and writing i do can now be quantified based on the frequency with which i must refill. Are you a fountain pen person, too? What is it about this medium?
