leaving this abstract floral (swipe to see the original it’s based on) right here for a while (thanks @carolynj for the challenge!). I’ve got big goals for myself — and I need some time and space to focus on them. I’ve been so good this year with limiting my time here, but there’s so much more room for improvement. so here I go y’all! after I meet each goal, I’ll come back and share some of what I’ve been working on before signing off again! I’m nervous and excited because it’s getting real over here. time to put the nose to the grindstone people. no time to be wasted. you can catch me by email: hello@inkandflora.com ✨✨✨ #gouache #floralillustration #doitfortheprocess #trusttheprocess #flowerstagram #surfacedesign #surfacedesigner #surfacepattern #surfacepatterndesign #surfacepatterndesigner #artlicensing #licensingartist
today for #marchmeetthemaker we are asked to share the not so glamorous part of running a creative business. if I could spend all the time I had to spare creating and making art I totally would! who wouldn’t?! BUT. there’s so much more to do in order to keep things afloat when you are self employed —-logo designing, business card printing (and stamping for me), website copy and design, email sending, blog posting, pinning, instagramming, reading, filtering out good advice from noisy advice, bill paying, income and expense tracking, equipment buying, time managing, email answering—-and list could probably go on and on. it’s all good important stuff, but there’s just me to sort through those things. totally not complaining, just sharing the behind-the-scenes-not-always-artsy side of being a creative. #motherartist #day7meetthemaker meetthemaker #marchmeetthemaker2019 #artistsupportingartist #artbehindthescenes #illustrationartists #illustrationprocess #poscaillustration #posca #illustratoravailableforhire #illustratorofinstagram #illustrationdaily #sketchbookart #sketchbookshare #sketchbookchallenge #illustration #surfacepatterndesign #surfacedesign #floralpatterndesigner #artlicensing #gouachepainting
#marchmeetthemaker day#6 I am a part time artist and a full time mama. I’ve got SIX kiddos —- FIVE of them are home with me all day, everyday. ❤️ we are a homeschooling family, so making smart, kind, life long learners is my most important job. my art practice is squeezed in between any quiet moments I can steal away to myself—-but most days you’ll find us piled together at our old farm table painting and making art together. it’s just the best life. ✨ these florals are painted from the @creativebug class with @carolynj ✨ #motherartist #flowers #femaleillustrator #meetthemaker #marchmeetthemaker2019 #artistsupportingartist #artbehindthescenes #illustrationartists #illustrationprocess #poscaillustration #posca #illustratoravailableforhire #illustratorofinstagram #illustrationdaily #sketchbookart #sketchbookshare #sketchbookchallenge #illustration #surfacepatterndesign #surfacedesign #floralpatterndesigner #artlicensing #gouache #flowerstagram #flowerillustration
it’s all in the details. watercolor and gouache leave the most beautiful trail of color and detail. no stroke of mark is ever the same and you’ll be surprised every time. #marchmeetthemaker #day5 #details #flowers #femaleillustrator #meetthemaker #marchmeetthemaker2019 #artistsupportingartist #artbehindthescenes #illustrationartists #illustrationprocess #poscaillustration #posca #illustratoravailableforhire #illustratorofinstagram #illustrationdaily #sketchbookart #sketchbookshare #sketchbookchallenge #illustration #surfacepatterndesign #surfacedesign #floralpatterndesigner #artlicensing
