the whole tiktok situation is EXACTLY why media literacy and education on propaganda is so important. the notifications about tiktok going down and then coming back use VERY propagandistic language, and with a literal fascist coming into power in the us tomorrow we need to be even more critical of the information we’re consuming and stay on the lookout for political stunts like this

Billionaires are beyond evil. Their greed and labor theft is a blight on the world.

They give absolutely nothing back.

June 20 2024 Sea Glass

This is another marker doodle, though without using micron pens this time: only markers for the colour and outlines. The black feels less intense, so I'm less of a fan of this style.

The colours here are another case: "What ones have I not used recently?"

Alcohol-based markers, acrylic pens

June 17 Nautilus

With this "zentangle doodle," I was aiming for something sea-like, like rocks underwater or a nautilus shell. In the end, the orange and pink colours were too vibrant for it, but I still like how this came out. The cells alternate in a consistent order, and there are five colours and three patterns. You might have to look closely!

Alcohol-based markers, fine-liner pens, micron pens, and acrylic pens.

June 15 2024 In The Garden

I saw a few artists try this kind of doodle, sometimes in a drawing style called a "zentangle." I used earthy colours again, and in keeping with the theme of making everything look shiny, I added white highlights in white acrylic.

I like the organic look of this one.

Alcohol-based markers, micron pens, and acrylic pens.

June 10 2024: Flower Field

I saw something similar on Instagram and got inspired to attempt something of my own. I tried to make it feel like a pattern one could find on cloth or gift wrap and in spring-like colours that might be found on impatiens flowers.

Ink, alcohol-based markers, acrylic

June 08 2024: Citrus

I've been testing a new style, using a light and dark version of each colour and white acrylic pens to create a shine. The effect makes the pieces look bubbly, like gems or stained glass. Maybe I was hungry after creating this, but I could only see cut pieces of citrus fruit.

Markers, ink, acrylic.

June 06 2024: Candy Cubes

I was experimenting with some markers and limited colours. The colours remind me of candy mints, hence the name.

Ink, alcohol-based markers, acrylic pens.

June 2024: Purple Lake

These are fun: they're starting to remind me of looking at plants under a microscope.

Watercolour, marker, acrylic pen.

May 2024: Rainbow Bubbles

I got my hands on a compass! I tried something a little different with this project: using the same watercolours as "rainbow stream" since they were painted around the same time. I made more circular designs with this, to keep with the bubble theme.

Watercolour, marker, acrylic pens.

May 2024: Pond Water

I used three watercolour paints and watched how the colours interacted with each other with varying amounts of water. Once that dries, I draw in some large lines with a marker and, for finer details, a micron pen.

Much of it is intuitive, and there's really no way to mess up. It's like a stream of consciousness.

Watercolour, black prismacolor, archival ink.

May 15 2024: Turbulent Waters

Working with water is fun. Watercolour is perfect for "seeing what happens" and then going with the flow—pun intended. The second and third images are close-ups that will be used on Instagram.

Would anyone want a print of this? It does not necessarily have to be at full size; it could be cropped to fit postcards or smaller prints. Let me know if so! 9" x 12"

Watercolour, ink, marker, and isopropyl alcohol.
