Take a look into the first half of The Tiny Book of Calm Microscapes... I admit, that the name was inspired by the Small Book of Calm in Black Books. Because it gave me an equally calm state while painting those tiny landscapes.

I already bound another tiny book to be filled with more tiny paintings. So if you feel like something is giving you the same feeling of calm and joy, do it. It's so worth the time and effort.

Have a wonderful day!

Eight pages from a small accordion-fold book I made. Each page is based on a 4-letter word chosen from the dictionary. Each letter of the word is connected to an instruction for one unit to go on the page, e.g., "fill one section with black dots" or "draw an item sitting on your table," or "draw a planet," etc. #mastoart #tinybook #chance #oulipo

Four simple ink sketches (black and white): my Monday procrastination project. The ink wash blobs served as constraints. #mastoart #inkdrawing #tinybook #inksketch
