I hope your week and Monday are off to a smooth start. I’ve returned to my paints recently. I had been a bit sheepish with the gouache for a while(!), but decided to return to my desk and open myself up to whatever wanted to be done.
These fish flooded into the frame somewhat unexpectedly one night. And the coral came after (the disappearance of coral has been on my mind). These fish are reminding me to stay in the flow.

a site revamp
And… the site has been spruced up. I am tinkering with using this site as a portfolio for my work. The homepage now has some new artwork up and the portfolio has been reorganized and streamlined. The short comics and sketchbook links are, as before, primarily visual pages. And the blog is where I will continue to spill too many words on an assortment of projects. I did this mainly to give myself a placeholder and to encourage more work. Let us see what the time ahead will produce.
Wishing you many hours of creative joy this week. 🎨
just beautiful!

Very nice artwork. I love how the coral looks like fingers trying to touch the fish. Thanks for sharing!

That is awesome that you revamped your site and might use it as portfolio for your work that is a wonderful idea! I usually read blogs I follow in the WP Reader but I navigated to your actual blog site to see how it looks. Oh that painting is amazing – you are such a talented person – in so many crafts!

Thank you for reading, and for your kind comments! I cannot seem to choose any single media, but maybe if I create a home, more projects will come. 🙂
