A square black and white line drawing of a tangled pattern with a central cluster of concentric circles that have a scalloped border. Thin, straight lines radiate from the edges of the square, converging on the central pattern. A black pen with "MICRON 02" printed on it is at the top of the drawing. The letters "WL ❤️" are in the lower right corner.

A small, square pattern drawing in black and white on a white tile with trimmed corners. The abstract design features swirling lines, circular patterns, and repetitive geometric shapes radiating from a central point. The drawing is next to a metallic silver Gelly Roll pen on a wooden surface.

A hand-drawn Zentangle-style abstract design on a small, rectangular piece of paper. The design features a large, curving, vertical chain of connected white circles with blue outlines. To the left of this chain are various squiggly lines in pink, red, blue, green, and purple, along with dots in various colors. To the right of the chain are a series of red and green semicircles in a pattern that resembles scales, and below that, a mix of blue, purple, and pink lines and shapes. The drawing is next to a translucent purple pen on a wooden surface.

A small, black, octagonal tile with rounded corners is centered on a white surface. A clear, white gel pen is positioned vertically to the right of the tile. On the tile is a white ink drawing of a skull. The skull is drawn in a loose, sketchy style and is framed by a series of three progressively smaller trapezoidal boxes that give the image a three dimensional feel. At the bottom of the drawing, the artist's initials **WL '25** are drawn with a small heart.

I haven't had the bandwidth to resume work on the neurotrophic piece. It's coming.

#WickedLizzie #Art #DisabledArtist #NoGMO #GLUTENFREE #Organic #SanityScribble #ArtistsOnBluesky #ArtistsOfBluesky #Drawing #NeurodivergentArt #InkDrawing #MicronPen #Doodle #ZenArt #AbstractArt #RedInk #FineLiner

A white square tile with rounded corners is centered on a purple, fuzzy surface. A red Pigma Micron 02 pen is above the tile. The tile has a tangled, intricate doodle on it, drawn with the same red pen. The design features a large, wavy, tangled line in the center with multiple oval and circle shapes with dots inside them, along with some flower-like shapes and other organic designs.

BlueSky seems to be doing age verification in some areas. Interesting.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Fuzzy monsters for tax.

"Strongmen" by @ruthbenghiat.bsky.social is an invaluable read right now. The whole playbook we're seeing in the US is laid bare for all of us to see.

"On Tyranny" & "On Freedom" by @timothysnyder.bsky.social are also both must reads given the current moment.

A mindful exercise is about to begin. I'll be doing it on 9"x12" #cardstock, aka #blendingcard.

I mostly work on a lap desk, it is both comfortable for hours & portable.

A White Rose.
White, black & gray inks on black artist tile.

#WickedLizzie #Art #DisabledArtist #ArtistsOnBluesky #ArtistsOfBluesky #Rose #WhiteRose #BlackCanvas #FloralArt #ink #Creative #Artwork #Painting #Artist #FlowerArt

A small, dark-colored square canvas with a painting of a white rose. The rose and its stem are painted in shades of white and gray, creating a sense of dimension against the black background. The painting has a slightly textured, almost sketched quality. In the lower right corner, the initials "WL" and a heart are painted in white. The canvas has rounded corners and sits on a wooden surface.

Playing around with stippling/pointilism. Dots dots dots! Wheeee!

#WickedLizzie #Art #DisabledArtist #ArtistsOnBlueSky #ArtistsOfBlueSky #Stippling #DotWork #EyeDrawing #MicroPen #ArchivalInk #Creative #Artwork #Drawing #Artist #InkDrawing

A square piece of white paper with a stippled drawing of an eye. The drawing is made entirely of small black dots, with a greater density of dots in the iris, pupil, and around the lash line to create shading and form. The eyelashes are also composed of dots, radiating outwards. A black Pigma Micron 01 pen is positioned horizontally above the drawing. In the lower right corner of the paper, the initials "WL" and a small heart are visible, also drawn in dots.

Quick sketch.

#WickedLizzie #Art #DisabledArtist #ArtistsOnBluesky #ArtistsOfBluesky #LineArt #Sketch #Portrait #FemalePortrait #Creative #Artwork #Drawing #Artist #Sketching

A black and white line art sketch of a woman's face. The sketch is done in a loose, expressive style, with visible construction lines. The woman has long, flowing hair that frames her face. Her eyes are large and prominent, with eyelashes that curl upwards. Her nose and mouth are also clearly defined. In the lower right corner, a small heart and the initials "WL" are sketched next to a heart.

I like to do my own fact checking. Being skeptical is a smart thing, imo.

YMMV
