Thinking 🤔 I will have to revisit this cow 🐄 in a watercolor version or even gauche? This one is in #prismacolorpencils I do like the black and white version on the next slide. #brightboldjoy #longmontcolorado #freerange #grassfed #UtterlyOverDone (at Longmont, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHhPNm3l7u3/?igshid=1qov3prhlf35e

Our trip to #Yellowstone was such a great trip. Perfect weather in the high 80’s everyday. Even got a great farmers tan. When I’m back at the store tomorrow it will already have felt like an eternity ago. #brightboldjoy #deanallandesign #canyonfalls #GrandCanyonofYelllowstone #grandprismaticspring #2020 #september2020 (at Yellowstone National Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CE5w3bElybx/?igshid=xnm2fee8lqyy

Dealing with my personal anxiety of the 6’ of social distancing I drew my interpretation of a pandemic fairy 🧚‍♂️ not free to fly. Seeing the little personal human connection that I have dwindle even more. Surround by and serving people everyday, yet still feeling distant and separated behind a muffled mask 😷 #mentalhealthweek2020 #prismacolorpencils #pride2020 #roygbiv🌈 #brightboldjoy #longmontcolorado #denvercolorado #fairy #sixfeetapart #onlinedistance #instagram (at Longmont, Colorado) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBLhEGlFwif/?igshid=au3emr7udnq7
