Came across this custom clock this morning that was gifted to me by @emmaleeartist in 2008/09 and finally got around to hanging it up in my studio!

Late night solo trip, visiting and appreciating old memories, and feeling like giving my studio time some much needed attention soon.

New website for my work! It's the same thing as the old one only different.

Still working on it and want to add some POS setup through it, but will do so one step at a time!

Let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions!

Taken yesterday, 11/2, but finally getting back into #intaglio after having an etching press for about a year! Proofs of a small drypoint done on an #akuaprintplates using #akuainks to proof (haven't tried the #charbonnelink yet.

First proof had too little pressure, second one was ok but needed to work on getting darker areas on the image, third proof is almost there... Printed on #speedballarnhem paper

Calexico
When the Angels Played

Ending Inktober with my favorite contemporary band. Was originally gonna use some "Calavera" lyrics for Dia de Los Muertos, but the lyrics didn't end up fitting the mood, but still a great song from them.

Hope they make another album some time...and apparently I do better drawing people when I'm a lot looser in my approach. Really happy with this one.

All time favorite musician. I remember @pancho.papas had started listening to his music and we found out later that our dad had the Axis: Bold as Love record but never told us until we found it in his record stack.

Was really excited about this one, but somehow I didn't stop and step back and it didn't come out looking as much like Natalie Lafourcade as I hoped, but it was fun using watercolors again

Creedence Clearwater Revival

Dad's favorite American rock band, and one I learned to like once I got to high school.

Too much hair on Doug Clifford's hair, and a bit too large overall compared to the reference photo, but happy with the rest...and the second like of the lyrics annoys me since I didn't space it enough so it wouldn't have reached Doug's head.

Also, one of my goals is to have a mariachi suit to wear at my art openings.
