I’ve been busy. Working and painting. This is a mixed media painting on birch wood panel. I used gouache,color pencils, acrylic markers, and oil pastels.

My daily drawing challenge for October’s Drawtober/Inktober blah blah blah...
The first is a chrysanthemum simply because they aren't easy for me to draw. The second image is inspired by my love of fungi and fantasy. Mediums used: ink, watercolor, and pencil.

Just a corner of my desk that brings me a little bit of joy.

And still make it look like my style.

People who can create beautiful fully rendered art with acrylic paint markers are amazing. I have this compulsive obsession to blend everything so I get very frustrated with them but I'm determined to master this medium.

RichAnt The Artist (@therichant) I finished another sketchbook! I'm on a roll. I love a good slow WFH rainy day.

I've heard that people who love purple are obsessed with it, along with people who love pink, cheetah print, and leopard print. I love animal print as well, but I get ultra excited when it's in any shade of purple. #Sketchbookart #workfromhomedesk

Watching Enemy of the State (one of my Will Smith favorites), and I'm thinking about how much we're now surveilled in 2025. This movie aged like fine wine, because we are surveilled in our home, on our phones, our credit card transactions, and we haven't even left the house yet.

I’m trying to figure out what other cute doodles I can add to her imagination totem, since I have some space. I was trying to be inconspicuous while taking this pic, but there is about 5 to 6 inches of blank space left. Any suggestions are welcome.

Same. It's such a pain. I'll be so glad when they finally decide to move on to the Sims 5 or whatever and let us live in peace like the Sims 2 and 3 people get to do.

Girl we’ve wanted to split up ever since yall decided school shootings were a fair trade for the 2A. Let the divorce proceedings proceed procedurally 😂

They are my boos, my boo-thangs, my original characters. I miss them. EA forced updated my game, and I don't have the brain power or energy to go through all of my script mods to try and fix my game so I can get back to them in my legacy save. #sims4storyteller #picturebookstorytelling

I've been busy filling up my sketchbook. While I WFH taking calls. #dailydrawing

I find myself missing my childhood and young adult life more and more. The 80’s were a time. Saturday morning cartoons, outside all day during the summer and indoor shopping malls. And don’t get me started on the music. When I was a teen I was a daycare assistant. She had me hooked on soap operas.

I have yet to figure out this app. As much as I want to like this platform it just feels like I’m walking through a hallway of glass rooms where people are having conversations but the doors are closed. I pull on the handles but the doors are locked.

Sketchbook art. Still in training with my new remote job. So once I know the info I just sketch until there is more information to study.

I have been MIA. I started a new job and even though it's remote work, it's been a lot of training six weeks and counting. My body is still getting used to my new normal. No new art other than in my sketchbook. The cool thing is I'm two more paychecks from being out of the whole. So cheers to that.

The new influx of of subscribers ive gotten on substack has me mildly concern.

2012 using Microsoft paint with a mouse vs 2025 using Procreate. I almost rendered it to the point of no line art but I like the line art. #therichantart #digitalart #procreateart

I got a reminder of my very first digital art from 2010. I did using a mouse in Microsoft paint. So I doing a new version in Procreate in my style now. I can’t wait to render her skin even more. #workinprogress #procreateart #digitalart

Also, I follow this woman who showcases her beautifully decorated home. I think my art would make an excellent addition to her decor. I did something I never do. I @ her and linked a painting I thought would great in that space. I’ll keep you guys posted.

My brain is saying go paint but my belly is saying go cook.

I did three murals for a friend of mines in her salon. One of her clients wants a minimalistic version of my art style for her home office. This is what I came up with. I really hope she likes this because I really want to paint this. #procreateart #artmural

God I love her art. I wish she was on here.

Listen, like your own post! Whether zero to two people like it or hundreds to thousands like you it, you make sure you like it first! Normalize liking your own shit!

Every artist I know is really struggling right now. Financially, emotionally, their confidence, in general.

If you like an artist's work, support them any way you can. Buying their stuff or subscribing to their Patreon is great, but words of encouragement are also incredibly helpful.

Deleted my account on Twittter the moment musky bought it and haven’t looked back.

It’s hard for me to express in words the cruelty and harm being escalated towards gender nonconforming folks, but while it may seem easier to exist only out of spite please know it’s also important to be gentle to yourself and exist out of love. We can’t allow them to take our joy away entirely 😤❤️‍🔥
