What Smells Like Blue?

I finally broke out the lovely indigo blue-colored printmaking ink. I got it about three months ago and promptly forgot about it. It's a little more difficult to work with than the black ink for some reason - the consistency is a bit different (or at least seems like it to me), but I did manage to make it work!

Blue lino prints are available in my shop HERE

(I will be adding more...)

(If you're wondering, yes, the ink is smelly before it dries)

Maceo

Last night I lost my beloved Maceo. I've had him since he was six weeks old and he just turned 17 on April 1st. I miss him dearly already. Rest well sweet boy.

The Heian Book Report

I've started re-reading my Heian-era Japanese Literature books (all English translations) and thought I'd write a few thoughts about each while it's fresh in my mind. I started with Hojoki and Tsurezuregusa . So, this is just my announcement, you can read a bit more about my Heian Obsession here and I will post all of the book reports to this page .

Day 6 - Lizard

The drawing of this lizard was interrupted by errands today but luckily I remembered to come back to it. The hubs walked in while I was working on it and said " ugh " (and actually flicked out his tongue much like a lizard)...which I suppose means that it looks real enough ;) ~January 6, 2022~ The Gallery for this Draw Something ( anything! ) Daily Challenge can be seen HERE
