I LOVE printmaking, and always failed to have the patience to do the complex prep and execution these great art forms often require. But I LOVE IT.

I don't know why my maga brother and his maga brethren don't get that there is no war but class war.

I'm trying to get myself back on my daily walks up and down the #monon trail. That's where all the sources for me tree paintings came from, last summer's walks. It's easy to get stuck in a work rut and not get out. This image is to inspire me a bit more.

From photo my silly granddaughter took of me walking behind her parents' tattoo shop. I had my most saggity baggity jeans on and they were a lot of fun to draw. The easiest kind of "real art media" style -- if you're into that -- in Procreate is this pen & ink wash style.

Portraits of humans are incredibly difficult. A difference of a millimeter in an eyebrow, or corner of a mouth, etc., can completely botch an expression, or an entire likeness. Here's my dear late mother on vacation in the 80's. The source photo she looks a bit pensive & sad, so that comes across.
