May has felt like a slow month art wise.
I feel like I've done absolutely nothing, but I guess I have done stuff.
Call it play, experimenting, practice, whatever.

| Trying out new stencils in my sketchbook. |
 |
| Playing with someone's TikTok tutorial. Wish I could remember who it was. |
|
Coloring for hours while talking to customer service trying to figure out what happened to the website I manage for the Utah Surface Design Group. Turned out we were hacked. Malware. Sigh. I'm now spending hours rebuilding the site.

Had to start from scratch. Fortunately I found the pre-built theme I'd used before so it wasn't as much work as it could have been. And yes, I did have a backup, but that's a whole other story.

 |
It's looking almost back to normal!
I just need to upload the gallery photos. |
 |
| My evenings are being spent in front of the TV working on blocks for the Social Justice Sewing Academy. This is one of 12 blocks I have. |
 |
I bought myself a new toy!
I might have a little obsession with date stamps. |
 |
See how fun that date is?!?!
Anyone else love date stamps as much as I do? |
 |
Experimentation? Playing?
A little of both. |
Back side of same sheet!
 |
| I was gifted three bags of book covers to play with. |
 |
| I wove a few together to use as a book cover for a handmade journal. |
 |
| Just need to Mistyfuse them to a backing paper and then put the journals together. |
 |
| And yesterday, I pulled out my Suminagashi Marbling kit, and marbled a few papers for a book making class I hope to work on this week. These are the same Sulphite Drawing papers. |
 |
And these are Kraftex, which I will use for the book covers.
The ink is very light, and seems to be permanent.
I want to stitch on the Kraftex once they are cut to the right size. |
So there you go. My month of nothingness.
It looks like a lot when I write about it, but it didn't feel like it.
