A little work in progress shot. Wednesdays are kind of long work days for me so it can be hard to put a pin in it and get my other work done. 😭 Gotta bring home a little bacon.

OMUKADE Man-eating Centipede 🐛 I’m feeling bittersweet as I get close to finishing my Mythic Mail Japan illustrated novel. It’s been a great adventure in pushing my illustrations and my storytelling. I hope you will love it as much as I do when it’s released late this summer. 💜🥰 . I want to give a big virtual hug to my Patrons who have supported me and have been enjoying all the behind the scenes process (and tears) for this book. I love you all: 💜 Trevor C. 💜 Bryan J. 💜 Chuck P. 💜Dani D. 💜Becca F. 💜 Alexis L. 💜 Amanda H.

#MarchMeetTheMaker 🌙 On Your Desk 🐆”On your desk” is today’s prompt from @joannehawker . Since I use a tilted drawing desk, it makes it a little complicated to show you what I have on my desk. So this is what sits directly behind me. When I do my art classes with grade school students this is the background that they see. When I twirl around in my chair because I’m not entirely a grown-up, I get to look at my fun, golden leopard print wall. 🐆 I keep all of my markers, sketchbooks, unfinished paintings (we all have an abundance of those), My printer, button maker, and packaging supplies all around me on my shelves. And I also have my troll (masked up 😂🤦‍♀️) sitting beside me. 🐆 Today’s Prompt also inspired me to make a mini video of what my typical day looks like. And you’ll get a little peek of all of my animals in my morning routine. 🖤 #ursaink #MarchMeetTheMaker2021 #MeetTheArtist #MeetTheArtist2021 #FemaleArtist #MeetTheMaker #artistsoninstagram #StudioSpace #animalprintlover #studiotour #artdesk (at Calaveras County, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMApxfUMZB2/?igshid=n6ewikgfr6vr

What is your favorite stone/gem? Rock junkies unite! Azurite brought to you by a fun collab art challenge with @dulce_somnium_art . I love azurite not only because of its deep color, but because it is ground up and used as a painting pigment. Plus, the hunk of azurite from my rock collection is so sparkly and raw. 💜Follow @ursa.ink for more! (at Calaveras County, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPTfCciMDk8/?utm_medium=tumblr

WORK IN PROGRESS// Last spot illustration in my new book, Mythic Mail Japan!!! 🎉 Like my great grandmother, also an artist, I have a great fascination with Ukiyo-e style art. I really admire traditional Japanese paintings. It appears simplistic, but in actuality, this style is very difficult to replicate—especially since my personal style is semi realistic. But I love it all the same and I’m excited to feature a few Ukiyo-e inspired illustrations in my book. . #mythicmail #ukiyoe #ukiyoeart #japanesestyle #daruma #darumadoll #artistsoninstagram #painting🎨 #artistic #artworkpromotion #artoftheday🎨 #artpage #illustrationartist #digitalillustrations #digitalpaintings #digitalartwork #digitalarts #digitalarttutorial #digitalartist #californiaart #procreateartist #ipadart #californiaartist (at Calaveras County, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQWf9IHMLVY/?utm_medium=tumblr
