Same here. I'm posting from the other side. 😀

In case anyone needs it today, here's a friendly reminder for artists, who've spent their entire day working on something and they hate what they've made: Close the app. Hide the piece of paper in a drawer. Turn the canvas around. Step away from your piece and look at it again tomorrow.

Happy #KidLitArtPostcard day! I’m Kris Easler, and I know going back to school can be quite scary for some… I’d love to work on projects that combine humor and horror to address real fears and anxieties. www.kriseasler.com Rep’d by the so-good-it’s-spooky-but-in-the-best-way @jenrofe.bsky.social

Thank you! I just got really inspired by some (I'm assuming) block-printed vintage Eastern European book covers and wanted to sort of mimick that. I did a very quick color test on Procreate first, to see how the layers could interact and check the different opacities. It's a very fun process!

Starting to work on a new painting today. My 'confidence' sign keeps falling down.

Photo of a studio desk with a pre-painted square piece of paper on it, colored pencils and other supplies on the wall, a small hand-written sign that reads 'consistency' stuck on top of the supply organizer and a similar sign that reads 'confidence' fallen between two pencil containers
