Here’s a tiny old piece of artwork that I just put in my Etsy store. It’s really a placeholder – I had a workshop last weekend with the fantastically talented and awesome Qiang Huang at the Whidbey Island Fine Arts Studio. It was a blast and I will post about it later this week once I get my demo paintings photographed.

What do you get when you cross a Meg with a week-long meeting and gridded paper? Prolific doodling of geometrical animals, of course. I drew rectangular creatures of all phyla, but the first one I painted had to be a stack of cephalopods.
Fun fact: this painting makes me think of semáforo, one of the few Spanish vocabulary words I remember. Not particularly useful, but one of the coolest sounding words ever.
Anthrocon Proposal
I’m back from Anthrocon, and it was a blast! I want to thank everyone who came by my table and who bought stuff there and at the art show. Also, my friends Kevin and Steff got engaged at the Art Show, and several of us contributed art to help set the mood, and it was great to be a part of that. Now, on to RAGBRAI prep and doing a dozen more originals for GenCon and Dragon*Con since y’all bought them all last week. But first, to sleep off this con crud, bleargh.
