Im thinking of quitting inktober (yet again) before i even really started on it. Idk just the thought of planning and actually making an ink drawing every day stresses me out. Although it was something that I easily did in the past. Even multiple ones a day... I think it's because of not having as much time to invest in art anymore I kinda lost my connection to it. I rarely get to sit down to actually paint. Every year I start the inktober challeng in hope to get my connection back but every time for the past 3 years I end up having to quit halfway through for multiple reasons like getting behind lacking time. This year I'm already stressed about having to catch up on the first few days that I missed.
Maybe I just had a bad start...I wanted to warm up by finishing one of least years works that I never got to complete and I totally messed it up and on top it tore apart when I tried to remove the one year old masking tape... Seems like an omen...
I will still dedicate this month to art and especially watercolor painting. But I think I will not do the inktober challenge for now. Maybe I will get to do the last half of it later but just now I need to get back into the peaceful/mindful mindset that I need for doing watercolor. Pushing myself with a challenge will not help here.
I started watching YouTube draw with me videos of one of my favorite artists there. It helps getting back into watercolors and Inks.

Sky on Sunday at dusk behind my property.*

Jungle starts at the treeline.

If it wasn't for the mosquitos, I'd sit there and just soak it in while trying to catch diabetes from a cold, icy Coke in a glass bottle.

*Didn't mess with colors but did sharpen contrast.

We lose colors...

#autumn
Colors of Autumn...

Whether you dress in all black or you wear colors, every little girl is a Princess and should be reminded of that (and yes every young man a Prince).This is a movie I have loved for as long as I can remember so decided to share it and yes it does NOT fit the theme here but Im betting at least one person will enjoy it <3

Rest in peace beautiful long hair for the record I'm keeping the colors Just going to brighten them a bit this week. Tomorrow is the day I get a few inches chopped off this.
Here are some photos from Sunday post trip ,I didn't post them before because it wasn't the right time. I plan on taking more photos next time Lucy comes around which should be on Saturday I believe if everything goes according to plan. I have to work my second job this week because we got sent home early at the restaurant today sadly or else I was going to invite her over Friday during the day. Oh for the record I got to see my best friend for the first time in 3 weeks today #goodbyehair #newhairtomorrow #posttrip #selflove #selfies #cutegirls #feltsexy #lucyintheskywithdiamonds #photoshoot #breakfreefromthenorm

I mixed two colors together today hoping to get magenta but it didn't turn out as magenta as it did purple. It looks pretty good Tomorrow I got to go to Sally's so I can get the powder for my lightener. The rest is going to be done with punky colors turquoise. #newhaircomingsoon
