What's in My Art-on-the-Go Bag?
January 24, 2023
While I was on vacation in California, I posted a photo of what I was working on:
Iโm on vacation with a bag full of paint pens and a tiny #artjournal. ๐ When my little guy takes a nap, I use the time as an opportunity to muck around in my little hand made book. Most days I donโt have a goal in mind. I simply sit down and respond to whatever is there. A few doodles. A little bit of collage. Itโs all part of maintaining an art practice โ no matter what. ๐
