#covid is a time for #selfreflection and, when necessary, edits. I do a lot of these 5min #drawings but rarely post them because self-absorption but likes the #Adobe #Photoshop #PSexpress filter on the first one. Filters help@me see possibilities in drawings that are kind of “meh” without a little experimentation. Pic 2 was drawn the day I found out only old people wear their part on the side.

My amazing Mom, @_baxrice_ turns 80 today. She’s in NC, and we decided it’s dangerous for us to visit when she can’t get her vaccine till MAY (ridiculous) but here are some pics from a couple of summers ago. (at Midway Artist Studios) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLpSNC1FRW8/?igshid=1bf6oijavkgwl

#drawing from the #news today. . #stephenmiller is the only Jew I can actually picture firing a space laser at ancient forests. The ones I know are smart, left-leaning ambitious and talented people, philanthropists, egalitarians. Not this guy. Good riddance.

In case you’re wondering why you haven’t seen any art from me for a while... this 42-min video took about the same amount of time to export/compress so I could share it. Maybe there’s a quicker way to give effective feedback virtually— words rather than video, maybe- but visual people need visual feedback. I record/post so others can learn the same tricks that I think this already proficient young artist could benefit from. This one could pass for professional work— stellar presentation!-but theyll get stronger and easier to animate if they clarify the character’s structure, maximize “flow” at every opportunity, and simplify it for the challenging task of #animation. . . #adobeExportsTakeForever #teachingartist #voicethread #remoteteaching https://www.instagram.com/p/CITVwEcFSur/?igshid=3tn0lfeba170
