color pencil and water-soluble crayon. abstract, calligraphic. a lot of scribbling underlies a larger brush stroke that appears to be walking off the page, and is tangled up in streams of imaginary letters. I literally did not want to sit down to draw and I guess it shows.

aw thanks!
water-soluble crayon (caran d’ache). a creature that most nearly resembles a rat wears a lavender collar with a decorative flower on it, and timidly clutches something that could be a small rock or large piece of toast or cheese.

Oh to be a little Tardigrade walking across a microscope slide. 🫧🐻🧪
water-soluble crayon and graphite. this started with a quick sketch of my cat's feet as she sat with them all primly in a line. then a lot of other stuff went on top - starting with a big moon-shell spiral, and a stream of red and orange brambly stuff down the length of the page. the energy is pretty chaotic, in contrast to the tidy paws.

i need to be reminded that a vision of a healthy future is necessary
water-soluble crayon. on a brown ground, textured a bit like tree bark, there are spots of black that are shaped into odd beasts and creatures. accents of orange and light green.

water-soluble crayon. it pretty much looks like a very round stripey bug sitting on its very round bottom.

water-soluble crayon and watercolor, abstract, calligraphic. vaguely resembles a coiled snake with an extremely grumpy aspect, possibly wrapped around a stone or egg. I have a head cold and spent the whole day on tedious data entry, just a few minutes in studio. Share this:

water-soluble crayon. it’s a bird, with a big bill, looking up. sort of calligraphic style black outline, orange beak and feet, green and blue feathers.

The Gulf states & Israel depend on water desalination to live. If Israel & US break the taboo of bombing vulnerable desal infrastructure, they risk catastrophic harm.
Percent of drinking water from desal:
Israel: 80%
Kuwait: 90%
Saudi Arabia: 70%
Oman: 86%
UAW: 42%

water-soluble crayon, abstract-ish. a pair of figures are either dancing or fighting with each other in a scene that seems full of bare trees and flames

same, ew.
water-soluble crayon, abstract. curved red-orange lines like a sound wave symbol arc across a backdrop that has something tree-like in the middle, orange above and blue-green below with sort of drippy organic shapes

it is really interesting, thanks for pointing it out
water-soluble crayon, sort of abstract landscape. there’s a big orange shape that could be a mountain with googly eyes and a huge goofy smile. it leans on a greenish lump that might also have an eye, who knows.

Sure seems like it would buy a whole lot of everything without killing a whole bunch of everyone if we defunded the military.
oh i love that!
water-soluble crayon, decorative pattern. blue swirls and spirals, punctuated by red dots, with yellow and pale green streaks flowing between.

water soluble crayon. green cat curled up and mostly hidden behind a sort of pot with a vine curling out of it around the whole page. blue-green leaves. orange and yellow background.

ink and water-soluble crayon. A rather messy rendering of two interlaced permutations of a 7 pointed star, with a spider hanging off the bottom. I was more focused on getting the interlace right, than on the geometry.

my daily art - 7 point star weave
line drawing of a 7 pointed star, set inside a circle. the geometric lines are neatly woven, but the interior of the star and outside the circle there are lots of squiggly decorations.

Kansas just suspended the driver’s licenses of all trans people in the state.
One thing us non-Kansans can do to help is donate to Trans Continental Pipeline, a Colorado organization that helps people move to safer places. (H/t to T. Thorn Coyle for the link)

water soluble graphite and crayon. my two cats, Wrack and Ruin, playing the “lick lick bite bite” game. the one in the back (usually Ruin) has her paw on the head of the one in front, as they face each other. It’s not carefully rendered or anything; I’m still in a not-spending-much-time-on-drawings phase.

my daily art - my turn
ink and water soluble crayon. a woven knotwork floral shape (not perfectly drawn!) covers the page, with a couple of leaves below it and surrounded by little blue circles that could represent snow falling. the flower is orange, with yellow glow around it.

water-soluble crayon. close up of a face with eyes closed, mouth smiling a little creepily I think, and hair kindof mussed up. and a nice orange circle right on the tip of the nose.

my daily art - shuteye
ink and water-soluble crayon. a dark ink-wash from which emerges two figures, back to back, looking downward and away from you. there might be a large book on the ground, and a scrap of something bright colored peeking out behind a wall or tree, but mostly the colors are very subdued greens and browns.
