Doing a little work outside (and getting some sunshine in) while waiting for Raid to settle a bit before I clean my kitchen. 🧡

Not 100% on that upper mushroom, but slow progress on my Shaggy Scalycaps.

Only about 20 minutes to tweak my shaggies (it's been busy; about to start dinner), but 20 is better than nothing.

I had an idea for a shell series w/taino cemi symbols. Shells didn't catch fire for me as an artist as much as mushrooms (or feathers). But I do have a ref book and pick out a shell now and then.

Bones down for a Lister's Conch.

Started adding shading but going to take a break.

The downside of doing the head before the body is the head looks lighter even though I used the same colors.

Guess it's a good thing it's a personal piece. *sighs*

What I managed despite my immense distraction. Pretty pleased with it so far.

Will let it simmer a bit and work on the gourd and remaining leaves Thursday. I hope.

More work on my Shaggy Scalycaps. Finished a smaller one, tried to start the upper left, but its angle is messing with my brain. I'll figure it out.

The bare outlines of my recreation. I used my original (messed up applying makeup) to get my layout. Now I'm going to my original refs to rework it.

I give myself permission to stray from the original. 😘

I don't know what it is about my mushroom art, but I enjoy taking my time on it. It relaxes me. And unlike some of my other long term pieces, it always calls me back until done.

Progress on my Shaggy Scalycaps.

Bones down for November!

This one looks a little easier than October's, though looks can be deceiving. All that patterning!

Actual screenshot of a human being (no #AI) painfully coloring in pant legs frame-by-frame… for a living!👖🎨 My behind the scenes of the day, working in #marketing for a #tech company (who would have thought?!).

Finally started my resketch of my calabaza and...already hate it. Based on a shape outline. 🤣

Being an artist is wild. 🤣

Minor adjustments to caps done. Now I have to decide which one gets spiked first. Probably the lower left.

I'm struggling with this guy. Don't think I'll finish him, but I'll keep tinkering. He's a challenge. Likely he'll end up being a head shot. 😘

Indian Fig is almost done. Need yo let glue dry before I can shade the fruit.

Speaking of shading: do I need to do more on the cactus itself?

Well begun. Feeling a nap coming on and have other projects that need attention, so stopping here for now.

Bones down for these punk mushrooms. I kinda want to spread them out more, but every photo I've seen shows them in close clusters.

Where I started; where I'm ending today. Already have some "errors" on the left side to think about. My brain sometimes gets lost when there's a lot of detail. I may not have him fully complete by the 28th. 😒
