Been basically just working on some commissions lately when I have the time, but I finished this particular piece yesterday.
"Teacher", 5/30/2025. My first real attempt at drawing a horse. I'm actually very pleased with how it turned out.

So true. So much of what I create is to say things in those works I cannot in words, out loud, that must otherwise be kept hidden-- at least, that is, for a time. Many because I lack the language; many others because of propriety and sacred regard. But I've learned to love and harness that tension.
This album is transcendent.
It was this whole thing
I love this!
A must-read.

When I picked up a pencil and started to draw for the first time in twenty years, this is the sort of thought that compelled me, and so far I think it has served me well... "just draw". Just figure I'll tell myself the same thing for writing: "Just write".

Spent much of the morning catching and holding baby goats for vaccinations and such. Found out that they don't really behave for selfies. These two darlings cooperated.
Hope everyone enjoys their day.

"Anyone who has seen her smile has known perfection. She instills grace in every common thing and divinity in every careless gesture. Venus in her shell was never so lovely, and Diana in the forest never so graceful as my Lady."
