I've never thought of it like this... Boy, do I feel robbed! ๐Ÿ˜ก๐Ÿ’ธ๐Ÿ’ธ๐Ÿ’ธ I, theoretically, shouldn't be struggling as much as I am at the salary I make. I'm empathetic for everyone making less or don't receive similar benefits. ๐Ÿซ‚ #taxthebillionaires #taxtherich

New stickers arrived! I got my Love Freely design printed as 3" holographic stickers. I think they turned out awesome! Come by booth 33 at the Lawrence Spring Fair in May. ๐ŸŒˆโœจ๏ธ #new #stickers #holographic #rainbow #typography #minimal #shiny #pride #LGBT #queer #love #Spring #fair #holcompark

I've been accepted to the Lawrence, KS Spring Artisan Fair! Mark your calendars: May 3rd, 9a-4p. ๐Ÿ—“ They updated sign-ups & I got to pick a booth. Booth 33. New art & stickers are on their way. ๐ŸŒฑ #spring #fair #smallbusiness #shoplocal #comingsoon #upcoming #LawrenceKS #Kansas #Lawrenceparksandrec

I have a sprinkling of gray hairs now! Plucked 2 just to be sure. Found a thinning spot, too. It's pretty obvious cause it's the front, right forehead spot. I'm officially getting old.... ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿพโ€๐Ÿฆณ I'm 35. When did you start getting grays/thinning? #life #gettingold #aging #grayhairs #graying #midthirties

My Ari #sketchbook arrived today!! ๐Ÿ˜ Forgot I pre-ordered it, so it was a very nice #surprise. It's really good quality & the packaging kept it in perfect condition. Love the extras & forsee myself using the stencil pouch for stickers. Ari is so cute! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿฉต Thanks @jaiden-animations.bsky.social #merch

Jaye & I went to #Naka-kon for the #firsttime ever! Went on a Sunday & only walked the #convention floor. The #crowd & noise were much less than #PlanetComiCon, making it #chill & relatively quiet. On our way out, there was this giant #Gengar blowup #costume. I had to stop for a #pic! ๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿ’œ ๐Ÿงต (1/2)

Hi! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿฝ I'm CJ. ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿฝโ€๐ŸŽจ I like #skulls, #rainbows, #plants, & #animals. My #style is #abstract #minimal, but I've fallen in love with #boho art. I'll be working on incorporating boho #themes & #colors into my #art. linktr.ee/cjramirezart #illustration #acrylicpainting #photography #queerartist #handmade

The 14 days are finally over! Took the #heartholter off last night & I'm so happy. Went through a total of 3 #patches & they all itched/created #irritation. After, this is what my chest looked like. Dry, red, #itchypatches & some scabs. Bandaids/med tape #irritate me too, just not as bad. #Allergy??

So true! My #mind is so full of things that my #body can't keep up. ๐Ÿง  There's not enough time in a day or energy in my body. #Fibromyalgia plus #ADHD makes getting things done very #annoying at times. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ I don't know the original artist, but I found this on Pinterest last night and had to save it.

I love๐Ÿ’“ #cruises so much! ๐Ÿšข One price, all the #amenities, multiple #destinations, & the option to dive into the #entertainment or completely #relax in an adults only area. Almost no planning is needed; just pick, pay, & go. One of the best ways to #vacation! ๐Ÿšข linktr.ee/cjramirezart #photography ๐Ÿ“ธ

I've been feeling like I'm not making ANY progress with my art business. Between fibromyalgia, ADHD, further physical and mental health evaluations, helping Jaye with Japanese, my 9-5, family drama, and keeping up with daily routines, I frequently feel burnt out. ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ ๐Ÿงต (1/4) #update #artbusiness

Happy Friday! Lazy post today... ๐Ÿฆฅ ๐Ÿž If the weather is nice where you're at, get out in nature this weekend. Who else wants to go to the zoo? ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿฆ“๐Ÿฆ’๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿฆฆ๐Ÿฆš๐ŸฆŽ๐Ÿฆญ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿชผ Find this photo of sprouting grasses here ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿฝ linktr.ee/cjramirezart ๐Ÿ“ธ #Friday #lazypost #nature #photography #photo #Spring #sprouting #weekend

#Sticker lovers, what do you do with your #collection? ๐Ÿค“ Here's a look at what I did with some of mine. I had these completely blank #sketchbooks, so I filled their covers with #stickers. Note that they're tastefully & intentionally placed; not just stuck on randomly. ๐Ÿค“ What do you think? #hobbies

Wrapping up this look back at one of my smaller #sketchbooks. (3/3) Finishes up #Inktober 2018, looks at some #doodles, goes through Inktober 2021, & ends with more #sketches & #notes. For Inktober '21, I used my #metallicwatercolor set for each one. #drawings #metallic #watercolors #illustrations

Going through one of my smaller #sketchbooks. (2/3) Finishing off #Inktober '17 & goes into '18. I always tried to make something #creative or #different. Sometimes, I took more time thinking about the idea than just #drawing something. This habit eventually led to burnout & I had to give it up.

Here's a look at one of my smaller #sketchbooks (1/3). ๐Ÿ“– At the beginning, there's some #doodles & #sketches. Originally, thought I was just going to make t-shirts. That's changed! As I flip, I start going through #drawings from Inktober 2017. ๐Ÿ“– #memories #art #artist #skullkid #mermaid #blackcanary

Flipping through a book of compiled #works from my #college yrs โ‰ˆ'09-11. I think they're from the same #class or from lvl 1 & 2 of the same class. Worked on hand/eye coordination by #drawing w/out looking at the page & on #perspective. We took an item, drew it, & reused it to #create diff #patterns.

๐Ÿ’“ 2 wks ago, I had a #health scare that made me go to the ER. Woke up w/ my #heart pounding & it lasted for 10-15 mins. Long story short, I've had this happen before, but I was always awake & could calm it by lying down. I have a 14-day #heartholter. Hopefully, it catches something.๐Ÿคž๐Ÿฝ #cardiovascular

๐ŸŒž linktr.ee/cjramirezart ๐ŸŒž The sun is coming back & it's warming up. Spring, get here! I wanna see blooming flowers & green trees. I wanna hear birds singing & bugs chirping. Winter is fine, but I love the warmth. ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿชป๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿฃ๐Ÿฆ๐Ÿฆ—๐Ÿฆ‹๐Ÿ #spring #seasonal #sun #sunshine #art #typography #design #bright #cheerful

๐ŸŒˆ linktr.ee/cjramirezart ๐ŸŒˆ All things rainbow or rainbow inspired! I love #rainbows & all the different ways you can make/use them. Anyone else used to say rainbow was their fave color as a kid?? Now my fave colors are blue-greens & black. ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿฉต๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ–ค #art #lgbtartist #skulls #typography #photography #neon
