If you’d like to see what I’ve been up to at work lately, follow Meshcapade on Instagram.
I haven’t posted in a while. The pandemic’s obviously been hard on everyone, and I’m just proud I finally managed to finish this drawing I’d been planning for months.
There was a small window at the beginning of March where retail was reopen in Berlin, and I managed to get a frame and a passe-partout made for this piece. I wanted to layer translucent paper to create this view of the Alps as seen from Axams in Innsbruck from a trip we took in the Beforetimes. Even though I had everything prepped, I was having a tough time to motivate myself to actually start working on it, so the frame hung empty on my wall for two months, silently mocking me.
My job had a company-wide day off last week, and I finally managed to turn it out. So now I can roam my apartment freely without a wall judging me. I need to go outside more.
The final piece is four layers.
My tiny orange boy broke his foot two weeks ago, so send positive energy his way. He’s been healing very well and is currently mostly just facing the injustice of having had his entire leg shaved before surgery and having to return to the vet every three days to get his bandage changed. He’s a trooper.
I based this on a pine cone I found in Portugal a few years ago. I’ve been working from photos for so long it felt like having a celebrity in the room.
This little guy is probably to scale. So tiny. So poisonous.
I’ve had Sugarland by Marnie stuck in my head for the past four months. Making this hasn’t really helped anything.
This is Reeses and Twix, two very soft bun buns. There is not a thread out there that could match their velveteen-ness.
