Sometimes simple is best. A quick face sketch on a ripped piece of packaging paper, that I have stuck in my journal.

With everything that's going on right now in the world, #art is the one thing that consistently makes me happy. I've also chosen to express only uplifting messages in my art.

Here's my latest video tutorial.

Toronto. March 2nd, 2024.
We are so easily swept from the game board when nature sees we've cheated.

Last few days to get a new LinnStrument for 10% off from Roger's store: https://www.rogerlinndesignstore.com/Default.asp

the way it feels

CW: graphic, distressing, very mild male nudity

Looking for the light at the end of the pain. Sometimes it seems it's not there at all.
(Please don't worry. I might not be fine at the moment, but I'm safe and I have help. Creativity is my way of coping.)
