Greetings, everyone ~

Within the first week or two of the new year, I like to share a digest of posts from the previous year. They include ink art reflections, practices, walking stories, videos, and more. Some are public and some are only available to patrons*. I hope you can take some time to browse the list below. While much of my creative work lives beyond these updates, you will definitely get a glimpse of what I'm up to.

The featured photo above is from my home drawing table. I had just finished one of my newer pen art pieces, tree time. The Cape Cod Canal is pictured below in Bourne, MA on my 2-week walk from Providence, RI to Provincetown, MA.

Each of you lift up every aspect of creative work. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
