Taking a creative break with some *very* old watercolor pencils I've had stashed away for years. I made these doodles during some downtime at one of my cons a month or two ago. They're not great but the idea is just to play around. I feel I've had miserable art block for over a month now and it's blocking me from the work I desperately need to get done. Anyway, it was fun seeing how these pencils work. The colors are rather limited and I think I'd need to do a swatch test first next time since what they look like dry is really different from what they look like wet. There's also opportunity to add more on top like with acrylic markers or gauche paint etc.

Scans of October and November postcards, and the hi-res download for postcard ink subscribers, are up on my Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/collection/269625?view=expanded

Woo hoo! I've been accepted to the Awoostria Dealer's Den for 2025! It'll be my first time going, and I'm looking forward to it!

πŸ”œ Goals for December 1-15 Man, where does the time keep going... Running a business solo is so challenging. It's a challenge I'm absolutely up for, but wow learning about upcoming laws concerning how I need to label and package and translate my products into every language of every country I ship them into including a batch number and personal name and contact details appended to each item really knocked the wind out of me. Anyway I promise I'm working hard and more visible updates will be published soon. πŸ“ Commissions - October Patreon Postcards πŸŒ— - November Patreon Postcards πŸŒ— - Resume Ko-Fi icons πŸ—“ Events NONE βœ… ❀️ Art projects/New Designs I pushed back less-urgent projects to the second half of December. - Biquette the Goat patch design - Pop collab project - Wolf face/wolf pair patch design? - Leopards patch design? - Fish bones hat? - Second hat? 🧳 Biz Admin/ Etc - NFC trip planning ⚠️ - Order new shirts for printing ahead of NFC - Deal with $100 Florida tax fee - Decide if I'm restocking bat bandana (if so, do it) - Decide if I'm restocking wolf and thorns beanie (if so, do it)

Sorry I've been so slow these past two weeks. Chronic pain hit me particularly rough (maybe catching up from last month's stress?) and then this news about the gpsr and an unexpected $100 Florida tax late fee I just got in the mail today have really thrown me in for a loop. Anyway I am getting stuff done and hoping to wrap up postcards before the month is officially over. πŸ–€ Here's proof of life + some fun monsters.
