Hey there~ I’ve been on hiatus, even on DRAWING ohmygosh. I decided a couple of weeks ago not to draw ANYTHING until I had some stuff done because I was procastinating too hard lol (still doing it tho) and… Tonight I’m specially upset and tired about everything so I just needed to do this… “sketch”.
I hope you like it, cause I do! it turned out more beautiful than I expected!
Starting the new year with a clean slate. Looking back at the past year in art I found little in the work that really expressed the things I wanted to say. People make art for different reasons. I have always been issue driven, emotive and immediate with my tools. Trying to simultaneously convey the head and heart chatter of the moment, through color, gesture, scribbles and words. To my way of working and thinking; The more aesthetically conformed the work, the less truth it contains. So my desire and intention going into this new year is to stop thinking in terms of desire and intention. Stop trying to “fit in” so to speak. Be a better more honest painter. Not sure such a thing exists anymore, but giving it a go all the same…. Sending out the good vibes to everyone for a healthy and blessed new year. So much work to be done. ❤️❤️❤️ #honestart #newyear #paintergrrl This piece finished: Leap of Faith: Giants. 48x48 mixed media. #abstractpainter #markmaking #cincinnatiartist #contemporaryart #headshot #poetryinmotion #truedetective #mindsleuth #modernart #searchingforcamus #strangersinparadise https://www.instagram.com/p/CJjTPnJh1rO/?igshid=1gfkshm6dozz1

I felt deprived at the lack of long haired! Aki in the main series, I really would’ve liked to see the conflict in her during her days between when she ran off from home and before she joined Arcadia Movement. I know her long hair is probably a wig given as she only wears it as the Black Rose witch, but I still would’ve like to see more as apart of the series.
