castironguy #icecream but actually #sorbet … I tried the #vegan peach iced tea sorbet tonight. yummers!

8r4dsfeets One minute you’re chilling on the couch, the next you’re on a field trip to the local #icecream hot spot in town. #kindicecream

squwetchy As much as I like sketching with ink and lines, the rawness of pure #watercolour (when I can take my brush) is starting to grow on me.

squwetchy There is a fuzzy line at the start of my professional #sabbatical and I am standing inside it I think. Yesterday I was definitely employed. Tomorrow I will be freed. Today? Today I went for a long meandering walk with the dog and sat in a park with my #sketching supplies. (Then I went home and replied to some messages on my work account.) Soon every day for a long while will be crystal clear and filled with art and creating, but today. Today I drew a #bridge … kinda like a metaphor or something?

8r4d One last look as I pack up my backpack for my #lastday #downtown. The team threw a fun little lunch party with pizza and treats and we said our goodbyes and adieus. One job left: hand in my computer and see what happens next.

pixelazy Prepping for vacation I was cleaning up my phone and found this old app buried in a folder that turns regular pics into #tinyplanet artsy pics. I caught the city #skyline from a moving car window and the photo itself was pretty mediocre but it kinda makes for a funky little planet, no?

8r4d Oh, thirty klicks on a #sundayrunday will be my last loooooong #running for a few weeks while we explore a bit more of the world beyond the #yeg #rivervalley … but it doesn’t mean we can’t still have a bit of local fun.

adventuredog oh the epic bliss of a summer walk with an #icecream break in the middle

squwetchy Back in my own backyard I tried sketching the #garden bed and my tomato plants. This was a multi-step #sketch with first laying down a rough big picture, then painting, then adding shadows, and finally after it dried deciding I wanted to add a bunch more ink detail into to central subject, the bed itself, which definitely makes it pop…

adventuredog Sunshine and Saturday walks make this hot dog happy as a pupper.

More adventures in creating stuff outside ended with a quick #watercolour #sketch in the trails and a new #video to profile the whole thing. With a million big ideas in my empty days it’s also nice to grasp onto little projects that I can share in a moment of effort.

8r4dsfeets The theatre beacons but since the doors didn’t open for a few minutes we wandered around and crossed the #train tracks a couple times.
