Pivoting into the February Valentine’s Day sprit by tracing some of my heart motif sketches, that I will use in surface patterns and also various textile arts.

Stages of admin and paper and packaging ✏️✨️ The everyday boring things are beautiful I think, maybe you agree? ❣️

Penciled a John Byrne's Guardian recreation. This is easily my favorite design of superhero costumes of all time. #johnbyrnerecreation #pencilsketch #alphaflight #alphaflightsguardian #guardian #weaponalpha #vindicator #johnbyrnecreation #onmydesk

Started out as a Jim Lee SUPERMAN recreation but decided to keep the cape and costume off while I decide if I want to make it a homage featuring a different character. (Already removed the Daily Planet from my sketch.) #Superman #homage #jimlee #jimleerecreation #jimleehomage #onmydesk

Left a color composition on my art table so that I, when I see it next time, will be inspired to get started on my next colllage. Anyone else does this?
