I see so many posts on here wondering how to keep creating art while the world is such a sh*tshow. I've been dealing with some personal stuff on top of it. It sucks. But I've been pushing myself. I've got three "dog grids" done so far, one in my sketchbook, two I'll be posting in my shop.

Check out my shop and see what's new! A bunch of original art I painted during my 100 Days of Dogs a while ago. Great for decorating a kids' room! Check my profile for link. #dogs #dogpaintings #originaldogart dawndsokol.squarespace.com/shop-origina...

Worked a little more on the recent spread in my sketchbook. I love doing these kinds of pages because there's not much thinking while I do. I just pull out paints one at a time from a group I've gathered to the side. #artjournals #sketchbook

An #artjournal spread and my baby-boo, Ruthie. Fortunately, the monsoon is trying to make its presence known, so we've got clouds and cooler temps today. It's 92 right now! For us, that's cool.
