If y'all thought I was quiet in posting the real reason is I'm working on a few things, between what I do professionally, my art, and my health it's been a wild ride this year. I am grateful I haven't been forced to sit on the sidelines, however it's not always easy to have to go slower. Just hold tight. There's more to come. #artistportrait #poweredbycaffee #caffeeblack #hacktheflow #redhead #gingerhair #myottawa #igersottawa #thevisualscollective #sketchbook #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #practicemakesprogress #ottawaartist #doitfortheprocess #pumpkinspice #gingerspice #artistssupportingartists #octranspo #narcityottawa #glowup #ottawatourism #autumn #patternartist #fallpower #gingerhairdontcare #bagels #Ottawaphotos #sommerset #cityfashion #citystyle (at Little Italy, Ottawa) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4s4j64FEnp/?igshid=t1z3k1jbrm31

We went for a bit of an adventure after work today. We learned that cobra chickens can't be trusted, downtown driving is filled with detours, and getting a selfie with not just one, but 2 doggos is next to impossible. Here's to more selfie attempts! #ottawaart #ottawalife #ottawaphotographer #ottawatourism #thegoodest #gambitandrogue #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #hackthecity #hacktheflow #poweredbycaffee #momanddad #royalcanadiannavymonument #royalcanadiannavy #navy #veterans #familywalk #dogselfie #summertime #exploreottawa #flowreach #cobrachicken #canadageese #maskon #stayandwander #touristsinourowncity #familyinthetimeofcorona (at Royal Canadian Navy Monument) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSk1ZUcFKH_/?utm_medium=tumblr

Out for an evening adventure. It's always magical to see parts of the city transform when the sun goes down. It has been incredible to see the change here in the past five years. From dull and grey, to creative and colourful. I can't wait to find some more gems. #mathieufecteau #sentierculturel #outaouaisfun #gatineautourism #myhull #myottawa #nationalcapitalregion #artistssupportingartists #artinthetimeofcovid #emergingartist #seeingstuff #flowreach #hackthecity #hacktheflow #origami #publicart #poweredbycaffee #practicemakesprogress #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #shetravels #hiddenreflection #citylights #citygrammers #themomentsinbetween #followthelight #urbanexploration #downtownhull #directorofphotography #reflection #gowiththeflow (at Gatineau / Ottawa) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRJVbThlR47/?utm_medium=tumblr

Early summer when we were stuck at home (the og part one, not this sucky sequel) I decided to try my hand at @gypsy999 #icad2020 challenge. To the best of my knowledge I was only able to make it to about 3 weeks in however it gives me the opportunity to try new mediums and subject matter. Due to the fact that they have to be done on Index cards it means that you arent spending as much time on them which means you dont get too invested while you're trying new things #myottawa #igersottawa #instaottawa #patterndesign #patterninspiration #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #practicemakesprogress #doitfortheprocess #artistssupportingartists #hacktheflow #poweredbycaffee #flowreach #zenflow #ottawaartist #emergingartist #artshow #practicefailure #sketchbook #surfacedesign #flow #ottawaart #artinthetimeofcorona #wereinthistogether #artprint #wallart #slapart #stickerart #pause #icad (at National Capital Region (Canada)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJtfluulDne/?igshid=sc92tobt24cg

Experimenting with creating colouring pages. I used an index card, highlighters, a deli pen, and made photocopies. If there's a will theres a way :) #myottawa #igersottawa #instaottawa #patterndesign #patterninspiration #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #practicemakesprogress #doitfortheprocess #artistssupportingartists #hacktheflow #poweredbycaffee #flowreach #colouringbook #zenflow #ottawaartist #coloringbook #emergingartist #artshow #practicefailure #sketchbook #surfacedesign #flow #ottawaart #artinthetimeofcorona #wearamask #wereinthistogether #artprint #wallart #slapart #stickerart (at National Capital Region (Canada)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJoplnclh9A/?igshid=1tq24dvfscejh

In the before times I was experimenting with flourescent paint and gel pens. It's nice to just play with colours and see how far different mediums can go. This was acrylic paint, watercolour pencil and gel pens on lined school notebook paper. The importance of selecting the correct medium. That is what I feel like I've learned this year. Make sure to have paper that doesnt warp when you put water colour on it, make sure to have paper that doesn't pill when you use certain inks. It's important to have consistency in ones pens as well. Certain inks dont photograph well. Others can be blotchy. I started with Deli 0.5 gel pens, (half the time the ink had dried up)slowly switching to gelly roll(when I erased the pencil lines underneith the ink would erase too.) Now I'm using Sharpie S-Gel which seem to address both issues decent enough. As stated previously, in the month of January I will be posting images of art that at the time I wasn't sure if I should post, (as in they didnt turn out how I had hoped) but now I see them as a lovely step away from the usual expectations, and has let me challenge my style and Improve. #myottawa #igersottawa #instaottawa #patterndesign #patterninspiration #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #practicemakesprogress #doitfortheprocess #artistssupportingartists #hacktheflow #poweredbycaffee #flowreach #sketchbook #notebook #florescent #trippyart #pychedelicart #practicefailure #artinthetimeofcoron #ottawaart #ottawaartist #stickerart #slapart #emergingartist #artshow #artexhibition #wallart #wanderlust #nothingisordinary #albumartwork (at National Capital Region (Canada)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJmcv_5lQC_/?igshid=125gzdv1od3fo

So I have been negligent on posting all the art I did this year. Luckily with a few days off I'll be able to get some scans done and finish posting some of the pieces. @wallacksart has been instrumental in having all of the supplies I've needed. This piece is painted with @holbeinartistmaterials gouache on an @apollonartistcanvas canvas. #myottawa #wallacks #flowerporn #tshirt #tshirtdesign #flowreach #poweredbycaffee #hacktheflow #practicemakesprogress #doitfortheprocess #artistssupportingartists #emergingartist #zenflow #gouache #rosetattoo #tattoodesign #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #artofvisuals #woodcanvas #artprint #wallart #ottawaartist #artinthetimeofcorona #artinspiration #artexperiment #canadianartist #analogart #rosepainting #primarycolors #artoftheday (at National Capital Region (Canada)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJea4XXFl_H/?igshid=d8ofi9xidfi3

Hey do you remember when it was summer and the sun still graced us with its warmth? I guess we gotta try this winter thing.

Remember when the weather wasn't so miserable? Even though summer exploring is winding down, I do have to admit that it was wonderful to see so much public art being added to our lovely city. #artistsupportartists #ottawaartlove #artinthetimeofcorona #wereinthistogether #muralartist #gobigorgohome #flowreach #poweredbycaffee #hacktheflow #ottawaart #ottawastreetartists #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #practicemakesprogress #doitfortheprocess #bankstreet #ottawatourism #instaottawa #igersottawa #seeingstuff #stayandwander #wearamask #essentialworker #ottawaphotographer #bagels #Ottawaphotos #colourfulmural #urbanphotography #urbanstreet #urbanstreet #emergingartist (at National Capital Region (Canada)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG0FZyAl0pr/?igshid=uw5dshfzx1a2

Why did it take me so long to appreciate you? It always seemed like a world away, but damn Hull, you have so many hidden gems! Couldn't find a tag for insta, figure itd post the tag so that I could give credit where credit is due. #outaouaisfun #gatineaumural #graffitti #ottawariver #wherethereisadreamthereisafuture #practicemakesprogress #doitfortheprocess #artistssupportingartists #hacktheflow #poweredbycaffee #flowreach #bagels #seeingstuff #ottawatourism #ottawaartist #canadianart #artinthetimeofcorona #stayandwanter #emergingartist #graffitiart #patterndesign #patterninspiration #ottawagraffitti #nationalcapitalregion #hullquebec #artofvisuals #citygram #urbanphotography #urbandecay #urbanstreet (at National Capital Region (Canada)) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGsHsgRl460/?igshid=1sgdmzqt3853p

Decided to switch it up. Purchased new wood canvases and guache paint from @holbeinartistmaterials at @wallacksart. Having fun with colour and practicing brush control.
