Art Art Process (as of early 2024) I've changed my standard process since the last time I wrote about it, although mostly in fairly subtle ways. (Image heavy)
Reading Books I've Read in 2023 I kept a list as I went this year, so it's fairly complete – although may be missing some smaller books I re-read.
Art Art Summary: 2023 All of the art that I finished in 2023, including that which I didn't see fit to add to my portfolio.
Thoughts (Not) Doing Business As There are two main reasons I'm dropping my DBA.
