#2026calendarchallenge - New week, same bear 🐻

1. Used Sharpie pen to darken darks and increase contrast on bear illustration and colored with Copic markers.

2. Researched vintage illustration and text. Printed and stained with Distress Inks.

I’m enjoying finding and creating the various parts for this mixed media piece, so not in a rush to finish. I may not have 12 artworks ready for a calendar at the end of the year, but I will have some art I really enjoy. ☺️
