I'm catching myself sketching art for a book cover... of a book that I haven't finished writing the first draft of... Is this procrastination or planning? #artvswriting #illustration

My players today: (post in alt text if you can't read the screenshot.)

Running a game in an hour and a half... and I know I'll have fun, but I'm kinda at the "i don' wanna" stage. it's been a week, and I'm tired. #dnd

Post some cat art of your own if you see this!

Art vs. Artist 2024... it's been a year, that's for sure! #ArtVsArtist

I'm tired of hurting. So here's something cute I painted a while back to make me feel better.

Friday's substack post talks about how we need beauty... currently more than ever. it's why I schedule a painting get together with a friend every Friday... #art open.substack.com/pub/deromill...

Our void, Coal, has what we call his "hug" in the crows nest of the cat perch... SOMETIMES he pokes enough out of it that we can tell he's there...

Sketchy eagles that feel like I do today...

To those of you who celebrate the US holiday, Happy Thanksgiving, from our cats and me.
