April saw me back on my oil pastel kick for the most part. I think my favorites in this batch are the planet paintings, and then the blooming cactus.
In other news, I can sense that the parameters I grew to accept with my art are shifting. I am drawing and painting more than ever, the poetic muse is running on full blast, and these last few weeks I’ve been feeling more and more led to continue exploring hybridized storytelling like The Blade and The Club from last year. I can’t explain where this sudden creative writing/illustrating push has been coming from, except to point to my prayer that the Lord would place me square in the middle of the creative niche He intended me to occupy…. Perhaps this is the way toward it?
In the meantime, I want to take a moment to say Hello!! to all of my new subscribers (over 30 in the last month!). 🙂 So happy to see you here!
And lastly, a short poem:
His chatter bubbles
Every which way; I hide my
Smile in my teacup.
(On tea walks with my son, 10 Apr 2025)
