#TBT to when I was doing something that I really loved! Why? I can’t explain it. I want to get back to this but I also have another thing (or 2) that’s been on my mind. Completely different. And lately, I’ve really just been distracting myself from doing either thing 🤪#papercuttingart #miniatures #diorama #kirigami #handmade #altoidstin

Finished getting this wall easel up last night. This was super easy and very cheap to make. I don’t do a lot of painting, mostly because of space constraints. I like this because I can arrange several canvas of varying sizes all at once. I spaced the vertical wood pieces so it would hold the sizes I work with the most in different orientations. It isn’t fancy. 😅 no pulleys, sliding rails.... I just drille holes in the vertical boards for pegs that can be rearranged to support different canvases. Swipe to see more. Btw that red and blue thing is from several years ago... one of the very first things I ever seriously painted/assembled. Anyway- I’m tired of it now, almost trashed it yesterday, but for now it’s fine here. It’s ugly, but I have a special fondness for it. This was back when I only had 4 colors to work with 😅can you guess two of them? ????? I was inspired to do this wall easel by @kulorbandit - following his progress on his studio - seeing his wall easel inspired me to come up with this project. Though they are completely different 😊 whew!!! Long post. Happy hump day! #studio #artstudio #walleasel #diyprojects #

This happened. #accidentalart #abstractlandscape #iphonephotography #instagramfilters I wish I could explain.Sometimes you may want to get it all out-

After some thought, I realized my last post of the sunflower was not my photo. It was originally posted by @lenoreannelawrenz a while back. I saved it to my camera roll b cause I want to draw it. After I posted I thought about when I took it and could not recall. Then it dawned on me!!! So, reposting today... I love the veins in this leaf. Happy Monday! #patternsinnature #green #mondaymood

Yayyy. It was a pretty productive day. I didn’t get to sort through all the bits and baubles, but most of it is put back together and sorted. I have one more big project in here but it can wait til next week. I’ve got 4 major work zones in here; large acrylic painting, paper cutting/assembling, water color/drawing and computer design... I use “design” very loosely as I’m not even close to that yet. But I’m gonna have to get to actual work soon. Just applied for my business license. Starting over can be a bummer but also a good way to reevaluate and reinvent the process. Happy Friday!

So... this is me: lots of work to do, tons of plans and ideas, long “to do” list, which includes learning a design program I know nothing about😬😬🤬🤬! I decide instead to avoid ALL of that and revamp my work shed. Thought I’d stop long enough to take a little video. This is about 2 days in. I was just going to do a little rearranging 🤪🤪 who else does this? #artstudio #sheshed #makersspace #lovewhatyoudo #lineart #mymessylife
