I’ve got my fingers crossed. Something good has to come out of this madness.

I think AI will only cause us to develop a deep appreciation for beautifully imperfect creations made by human hands. #thoughts

I can see the vision in my mind but bringing it to life artistically is rough when you’re plagued with perfectionism. πŸ˜” #thoughts

It’s been a minute since my last post. I’m still alive and kicking. πŸ˜‹ Working on something to burn on these round plaques. So far it looks like I’m leaning towards birds and butterflies.😊

Respecting Your Limits Sometimes even small things take a moment to complete. At first glance, because it’s small, the size can be deceptive and full you into thinking, β€œOh, this will be easy and I’ll finish it quick.” Ha! In the world of creation even the small and rather simple might throw you for a loop. I have to admit, I like working small and making small things.

Having limitations can sometimes create more room to be creative than having infinite space and options. ☺️

Made this mini comfort bird. I kept seeing these in carving tutorials, so I decided to carve out a little one for myself. It’s about an inch and a half in length and fits perfectly in the palm of my hand. It’s rather soothing to the touch. ☺️ #woodcarving #crafts #handmade

I think whittling is becoming my go to activity for when I’m feeling anxious. …it’s like carving your own little action figures. πŸ˜‹ After doing this 🌲& 🐧 I now feel ready to do those pendants I’ve been mulling over. #art #crafts #woodworking #woodcarving #whittling

Carving and sanding shapes today. One is going to be a wood burned pendant for a keychain, the other, for a necklace. 😊 #crafts #woodworking

In a effort to get better at stippling trees, I’ve started a series of small ink drawings. This is my first one so far. 😊 #drawing
