Writer, video editor, motion graphics occasionally pay me. Creating art and having conversations fuel me.
Not sure what to do next. I've affixed half of the fortunes I've received in my life to this board.
More details, maybe some gold lines in between some of,the fortunes?
A finish of some kind? That seems like a good idea. I'm not sure what? Clear acrylic? I'm out of my element and experimenting, so feel free to chime in.

What's happening with me and my goals in June. https://ko-fi.com/Blog/Post/June-Update-M4M6WEM9?justpublished=true
Used #Gimp to add my words to my images for my blog. I guess the next step is to try Kdenlive to merge the words to the animations I did for #36DaysOfType
Might as well keep going with this idea of moving away from Adobe. I have six animations to do it with, so wish me luck.
Using #Gimp to combine the words and images from my #36DaysOfType challenge into something I can post on my experimental art blog. I'm super excited to not be using Photoshop.
This is my goal for 2019, freeing myself from Adobe. I'm thinking I may dual boot the desktop to Linux to help me on this goal. Gotta keep windoze for the partner. :)
*breathes in and exhales slowly*
#36DaysOfType is done for me. At times the words and images radiated from me. Other times, it bled me dry. This is life. Ups and downs. Much <3 to those who encouraged me and followed the progress. Thanks.
InstaSpam comment on every post:
Is this your original art? If so, would you like to pay us to feature it on our account, which will get us more followers to extort more money from other artists like you?
Sleepy #Mastoart rant--
I should have restricted myself to using FOSS apps for #36DaysOfType. This would help me get more familiar. In university I spent an entire semester, in one class using only After Effects for the projects. That worked really well.
At the same time, creating, letting it flow, is rewarding. #3DDoodler one day, animating another, experimenting. It's been interesting. I need to not be so hard on myself. #ArtTherapy
I feel like I'm running out of steam for #36DaysOfType You can see what I've been doing on my @pixelfed account, @sikkdays
If you're here for decentralization, you might like letter M and N. Much of the rest of the alphabet has been focused on #MentalHealth

Now that I'm more confident in my drawing, I thought I'd play at sketching with my old Wacom. I'm not sure I'll ever be comfortable with digital sketching.
How do you all do this? You're amazing.
Test self portrait is meh. #mastoart #creativetoots
'm doing #36DaysOfType and like much of my art, I'm exploring my emotions and #MentalHealth. This is what I wrote about #Hustle for the letter H-- https://savethis.space/2019/afraid-of-what-we-find
Is anyone doing #36DaysOfType on #mastoart or @pixelfed ?
I had my own daily art project to start soon, but I may dip into http://www.36daysoftype.com/
Maybe to spur some creativity, though I'm sad they've partnered with Adobe which I'm trying to cut ties with.
Since I'm scanning things in my sketchbook, I've added #MantraMutt to my art blog as well. https://blogin.space/blog/mantra-mutt
#watercolor #Mastoart
Added my watercolor paintings from my sketchbook to my art site, because why not. https://blogin.space/blog/watercolor-works
#Mastoart
New #MorningMantras is up with new #Mastoart of Mantra Mutt!
This one is about forgiveness. It's short, so I can repeat it daily. No more chatty me. Time to get to work.
Also a brief update on my somewhat failed plastic clay dog tags.
Updated my art blog post on my homemade cards with the last batch I sent out. (I've got 7 more to create and send!)
I've also created a silly name for my cards, Punwurst Affiche.
Dropped the finished thing on PixelFed.

#mastoart #words #painting
Wrote something awhile ago. Put it on paper. Messed the paper up. Still messing the paper up. I think I'm making art or something.
#mastoart
Perfectionist/escapist me spent some time trying to decide if I should try Society6 or Redbubble for my #art, but what I learned here in #mastoart is that #DesignByHumans ships just about anywhere. I liked that.
Yet, I have to say that support and communication is lacking there. The latest feedback I sent them was, "Please consider less 'marketing' type emails to sellers and try community building." I feel they could benefit from a community manager.
