Carlsbad Caverns. Muted stone, deep shadow, and the patience of underground time.

Happy New Year ✨
This year I’m choosing intentions over resolutions.
Three for 2026, all in 15-minute increments:
• meditation
• drawing
• yoga
Small enough to begin. Simple enough to return to.
Here is my first painting of the year as a marker, 30 minutes!
Small winter palette study. I’m enjoying these colors.

Quick little study with one of my new winter color palettes. I found an old coaster that needed to be painted over. #coasterart #winterpalette

My painted bears feel eager to roam, hopefully they will soon be tucked into a book as an unexpected winter gift. I’m having fun thinking of who to send them to.

Finished five more little holiday bookmarks to give away. This is a great way to get my daily drawing in. #holidayart #bookmarkart #littlegifts #dailydrawing

Quick little painting warm up for today. Working with color intuitively--not following my December palette. Casein on paper.

I've given myself a daily art challenge. I am going to start drawing dog breeds from A to Z. One a day (hopefully) until I am finished. No time limit, random medium--might be super short, might be long. This one was about 15 minutes (maybe a little less) in ballpoint pen. Affenpinscher.

I couldn't help myself today--I've added a different palette to my art game. I needed some brighter colors today. I think working in two palette combinations might be the ticket.
