Here’s two line drawings I just whipped into my sketchbook. I absolutely love them like this — simple & sweet. Sure, I could stop here & call them “finish”. But let’s be honest — this is also the moment right before I start flooding the space with pattern & ink & it’s hard to restrain my heart from doing what it wants. .. .. .. #dirtyfootprintsstudio #wip #conniesolera #sketch #sketching #sketchbook #ink #inkdrawing #linedrawing #line #pittpens #tombowdualbrushpens #art #artist #workinartist #creativeprocess #creativepractice

@dkmagarts is this week’s 21 SECRETS Spotlight! After you hit the link in my bio to check out her interview (over on my blog), be sure to check out her Instagram feed too! I absolutely love Dawna’s bad girl art that she’s been whipping up lately! Dawna brings a lot of humor & joy to the art that she creates — I find it so refreshing! .. .. #dirtyfootprintsstudio #21secretsartjournaling #mixedmedia #painting #collage #artjournal #artjournaling #visualjournaling #art #artist #creativeprocess #creativepractice

I sat down this morning to journal & the words weren’t a flowing, so I picked up my sketchbook & found It easier to say this instead. .. .. .. #dirtyfootprintsstudio #conniesolera #sketch #quicksketch #dailysketch #sketchbook #sketching #linedrawing #pittpens #tombowdualbrushpens #ink #penandink #inkdrawing #line #pattern #abstract #abstraction #abstractart #art #artist #creativeprocess #creativepractice

For the longest time I used to poo poo pink — then I went to Oaxaca & something snapped. Now I can’t imagine my painting practice without it. — & here’s another flashback painting to January 2017 when I taught my first #paintfearlessmexico retreat & created my first body of work there too. .. .. .. #dirtyfootprintsstudio #conniesolera #worksonpaper #fearlesspainting #paintingthefeminine #abstractpainting #painting #abstractart #abstraction #color #mixedmedia #art #artist #travelingartist #creativepractice #creativeprocess #pink

What is it about the end of the year that gets me all nostalgic — maybe it’s my birthday right around the bend, or the cooler temps that prompt deeper reflection, anyways, here’s an oldie I created in Oaxaca in January 2017. I got a warm gooey place in my heart for this piece. .. .. .. #dirtyfootprintsstudio #conniesolera #paintfearlessmexico #paintingthefeminine #fearlesspainting #worksonpaper #mixedmedia #painting #abstractpainting #abstractart #creativeprocess #creativepractice #abstraction #figurative #color #pattern #bold #art #artist
