Cozy vibes in the sketchbook with a sleeping fox, two adorable hedgehogs, a fluffy squirrel, oak leaves and acorns, and a quote from Anne of Green Gables. #autumnvibes #cozyart #sketchbookart #cottagecoreaesthetic #animalart

Sketchbook page inspired by the garden at night under a full moon - black cats, death-head moths, moon flowers, magic keys, and a witchy quote. #paperrepublic #sketchbookpage #pencildrawing #witchygarden #cozyart

Still pen and ink - technically - so I think it counts for Inktober. Although I did add a bit of metallic paint. Bunny rabbit and spider for a dark cottagecore meets spooky season vibe. #cozyart #animalart #paintingprocess #cottagecorevibes #spookyseason

I’m bored with Inktober and itching to paint. Turns out I only had about ten days of structured art challenge in me. Can’t say I’m surprised. #inktober2025 #animalart #deawingprocess #cozyautumn #drawingchallenge

Let’s draw all the different things today. My dog watching me through the back door, my cat sleeping nearby, some mushrooms, pumpkins, frog, snail, bumblebee, and lots of little butterflies. All things that make me feel cozy. #inktober2025 #cottagecorevibes #drawingprocess #cozyart #arttimelapse

Trying to keep these quick and loose and not get too bogged down. Today for #inktober2025 I’m drawing a couple dogs that remind me of my own pup, a German shepherd/belgian malinois mix. Dogs are not a usual subject for me, I may give this another try. #drawingprocess #doglover #dogdrawing #animalart

Some days just don’t go as well as others. I was definitely frustrated drawing today with this fountain pen. I’ll consider this my warm up before going back to work on my oil painting. #inktober2025 #cozyillustration #fountainpenproblems #coyart #dailydrawing

Back to the animal studies - today ravens. Perfect for spooky season, but also way up there in my top five favorite birds. #cozyart #inktober2025 #corvids #drawingchallenge #ravenart

Spooky πŸ€” black cats squeezed into assorted glass jars for #inktober2025 day 6. I didn’t have a lot of time to fill the page today, so opted for these less detailed, but adorable kitties today. #cozyart #spookyseason #catlover #catsareliquid

I don’t use the β€œofficial” inktober prompts. I already have more ideas than I can ever execute within my remaining days on this planet. Why would I draw something that doesn’t inspire me and light me up? #artprocess #creativefreedom #inktober25 #womenartists #cottagecorevibes

I had to bust out the colored pens. This one is for the book lovers. An odd assortment, but just a few of the books I’ve read this year. (I KNOW Gainman is cancelled.) Because it’s October and β€œspooky-season” I added a big black spider stalking a fly. What do you think? What should I draw tomorrow?

One could argue that a practice that brings beauty into the world is more important than ever. I know making art helps my mental health. Even if you aren’t a creative yourself, maybe watching someone make art can help yours. #creativeprocess #cozyart #horsedrawing #artandmentalhealth #inktober2025

Inktober Day 2 - This one is for all the horse-loving little girls who never got to have a pony of their own. I haven’t drawn a horse in many years, but as a kid they were a constant presence in my art and my dreams. #inktober2025 #penandinkdrawing #horselovers #drawingchallenge #cozyart

For me this drawing challenge is really about exploring a media in which I feel weak. I’ve never been as strong a draftsman as a painter. Just something about how I think about painting vs drawing that has always challenged me. #inktober2025 #drawingprocess #cozyart #artskills #drawingchallenge

Off topic, but I’m both excited and apprehensive about new music from Taylor Swift. There’s this low level fear that I’ll hate it, it will be too pop, too much about Travis, . . . Anyone else feeling that? #inktober2025 #cozyart #cottagecorevibes #drawingprocess #tloasg

Curious rabbits among stacks of horror books and poppies all against velvety black and gold flecked backdrops. For collectors who love nature, lituratue, and art that feels both romantic and a bit rebellious. #darkcottagecore #cozyart #originalpaintings #animalillustration #cottagecoreaesthetic

Adding the finishing touches to these two paintings featuring poppies, books, and bunnies. How much gold is too much??

Studio time must haves include inspiration, paint, caffeine, perfect brush, more paint, and time to fall into the process. I’ve been filming myself painting less in an effort not to interrupt my flow. #cozyart #cottagecorevibes #paintersoftiktok #artprocess #artinspiration
