I wanted to share a 'peel and reveal' animation for my latest linocut--I can't sleep because I keep dreaming of teapots. You can get a closer look at the print on my website....or visit the studio and see it in person! Hope you all are having a great weekend! #printmaking #bear #teapot #linocut #kentucky #art #mastoArt #handmade

I made it to sketch group for the first time in a while. Today's model was a figure. I chose a view with some challenging foreshortening. this was not easy. This kind of view is really hard to draw from life because the measurements have to be perfect for the illusion to work--and even the best models make all kinds of micro movements in between breaks. I did the best I could, and can tell I am improving with practice. #drawing #art #figure #mastoArt #kentucky #charcoal

I haven't been on the socials much this week because tomorrow is the monthly event when my studio is open to the public. Here's a peek at my desk right now--I've been printing notecards, including 2 new designs which I won't reveal until tomorrow. *i'm not going to confirm or deny that there's a chicken riding a bicycle hiding behind the hiker notecards. Hope to see you tomorrow! #printmaking #hiking #dog #linocut #handmade #art #mastoArt #kentucky #cincinnati #ohio
