since school got back and my summer courses' assessment is looming I haven't had much time leftover for lots of art. but here are some etching plates and plans, as well as some posca drawings. there should be some prints incoming soon, since I have an exhibition in may that needs printings for.

bees! the digital design and the lino print, hand printed for my convenience.

even more digital art. have been doing some traditional stuff but i'm having trouble getting scans and also time.

[alexbutlerart]

more digital art, images from my sketchbook pages. i'm having a lot of fun with these.

from the same session as before, second digital piece since 2014.

[alexbutlerart]

first digital pieces since the beginning of 2014, very much out of practice but i'm happy with the results.

some final print versions w real ink and stuff - turns out I am not great w handprinting but it's fun anyway.

[alexbutlerart]

first piece of the new year, printed w stamp ink again because I still don't have real stuff and I'm really impatient.

[alexbutlerart]

last piece of the year decided to do a lino cut (yay for working in an art store), except I decided to do it w/out a press, or even real ink. so have a bootleg print of a lino cut, made with a stamp pad and very sore fingers.
