I liked how yesterday's drawing turned out, so I started playing with it on watercolor paper.

Making progress with these little pieces on watercolor paper.

I liked yesterday's #inkyDays drawing so much that I did one on watercolor paper. I also made some progress on a bigger floral piece. So much drawing today :)

Working on a new drawing on watercolor paper with an abstract floral and network pattern. My drawing is next to my glass dipping pen and ink pallet.

Sometimes, I express my frustrations with my art. In this piece, the words between the ants say "I'm so tired of this fascist sh*t".

With all this new energy, I'm thinking about my bee drawings.

Since I drew a comforting floral pattern for today's drawing, I'm posting one I did on watercolor paper and have listed in my shop.

Just listed one of my abstract koi drawings in my etsy shop. I love drawing these. They're so calming but still lively.

I liked today's drawing so much that I tried it out on watercolor paper, after some small tests. I've listed it in my Etsy shop, just in case anyone would like it. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1712336558/hand-drawn-abstract-floral-network

Had such a strange but fun dream when I was waking up today.

I wrote about it on my patreon and ko-fi:

I see folks post my work, as if it were it's own, on Pinterest all the time. I don't go looking for it, it just shows up in my feed there.

Sometimes, they are even trying to sell it!

If you like my coloring pages, buy them from me directly instead.

Here's one of my most popular coloring pages, created with code and inspired by chemistry!

Another fun instant downloadable coloring page, of my art inspired by Chemistry and Physics and created with code and a particle system.

Thinking about applying for an art fest, here in San Francisco, that should happen in May.

I'm thinking I might apply, and if I'm accepted, see how I'm doing.

I might be better by then. Or I might not.

I have no idea, but I don't want to put my whole life on hold while I wait

It's definitely spring, here in San Francisco. Otherwise known as my allergy season.

At least the flowers I draw don't make me sneeze.

Starting to experiment with drawing ants and text in the same piece.

@KristinHenry@artatomic.social avatar

More experimenting with words between the ants, on watercolor paper.

This time, with a more meandering path.

KristinHenry,
@KristinHenry@artatomic.social avatar

I was going to save these, for in-person shows, but went ahead and listed them in my etsy shop for now.

I liked how the in-progress photo of today's #inkyDays drawing looked. Only half of the branches filled in.

This gave me an idea to try using two different fill colors in the branches.

It's subtle, but looks great in person with natural light.

I may need to experiment with this more.

With all the work today, over at vis.social, I almost forgot to post this photo.

I did some test prints, and most of them turned out great!

The one I expected to not work great, was ok. But not great.

Some of them are gorgeous...at least to me :)

These are created from some of my #genuary2024 creative coding experiments.

@gmschroe Thank you!
I've worked with a local Find Art Photography printer shop for years. The do mostly high end photography, but do well with my works.

For paper, you'll want a fine art paper. There are so many options in that department. You'll need to go look at the samples and do some test prints.

For some of my work, I go with ink-infused aluminum. It yields amazing color saturation.

I hope that was helpful.

KristinHenry,
@KristinHenry@artatomic.social avatar

@gmschroe these particular prints are on Canson Arches 88 Matte fine art paper.

KristinHenry,
@KristinHenry@artatomic.social avatar

@gmschroe It's very satisfying, but there is a learning curve. What looks great on the screen can look terrible in print. So give yourself space and time to figure out what works for your creations.

Do small test prints before committing to a bigger print.

I liked today's #inkyDays drawing so much that I decided to try it on watercolor paper, and with some different colors.

Light isn't playing well for photographing, so this is the best I could get for now.

It's not good enough for putting up on my etsy shop. But if you're interested let me know, and I'll make a custom listing for you.

I did it!

31 sketches for Genuary! I focused on polar coordinates and rotational symmetries with some deviations.

@fractalkitty Congratulations!!! It's a big challenge, that's for sure.

I almost ran out of steam, but did the last ones even though I didn't do them very well.

Went out to Sloat Nursery on the other side of town today. Saw these gorgeous flowering plants. Now I'm wanting to get one.

They're called Abutilon 'Tiger Eye'

Just got to see last night's Ruby Bridges interview on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. She is just so amazing.
