Some monoprints I did as part of my response to the Kick-About #11 prompt "Exoplanet Trappist-1e" (which I proposed!) I wound up doing a grid of these abstract planet prints, drawing directly on the inking plate and having a good time at seeing what came up on the paper. Hop over to https://marcyerb.com/ to see the finished grid of planets and https://reds-kingdom.blog/ to see the whole group of responses to this distant and potentially habitable planet by a bunch of really talented artists!

More small squares in my life, but this time on Enzo the cat’s favorite quilt.

Another art card that went out - in response to a call for postcards about what our quarantine life looks like. I thought about all the zoom meetings and facetime calls I've been on and so my quarantine looks like a lot of small squares...

Mail art that just went out! Experimented with a new-to-me transfer medium - light pumice gel. It gave the postcard a lot of texture and a grey sheen.

Ms. Tanzie looking curiously at the grey plastic box being pointed her way. The noise of the polaroid is usually enough to preclude a second picture anyway...

Art is everywhere - chalk on our blue painted back steps by my son - or clouds in the sky as he called them. Who am I to argue?
