Happy Year of the Fire Horse! Did you know that in addition to the 12 animals, there is a cycle of the 5 Chinese elements, too? These linocut block print Lunar New Year cards are going out to friends and family soon. I printed a couple extra if you're interested in purchasing! wayleeart.square.site
I've set up a website for my art and am going to see how far it goes! You may have seen that I've been posting a lot of painting and sketching lately. Now that @waylee.art is set up, I'll focus my art over there and keep this account focused on my comics. www.waylee.art

First @urbansketchers.bsky.social Seattle outing of 2026 for me, and I’m glad I braved the cold to paint outside! I really like how this painting of @mohaiseattle.bsky.social came out. #watercolor #pleinair #onlocation #art #painting
The Maurice Sendak Nutcracker ballet props! This house in Seattle exhibits them every year, hosted by one of the Pacific Northwest Ballet orchestra members. Sketched with mittens on to try to save my fingers, which are getting a little frost bitten. #nutcracker #sendak #sketch #urbansketchers
Happy New Year, everyone! May 2026 bring you enlightenment. 🧘♀️ Made this comic at the monthly DUNE comics jam in Seattle.
I wrote a recap post for 2025 and shared the progress I've made over all the watercolor sketches and paintings I did over the past two months, and also a look ahead to 2026. Check it out here!
Looking Back at 2025 and My Watercolor Ramp—and Forward to 2026
[NOTE: if you’re reading this in email, the post is too long to show in its entirety due to all the watercolor pics.

Painted another view over Lake Washington from Magnuson Park, this time on a very grey, foggy, cloudy morning, but with great atmospheric light in the distance and the sun breaking through the clouds occasionally. #pleinair #onlocation #urbansketchers #watercolor #art #artsky
Holy cow it was freaking windy on this day! At one point my paint brush case, water jar lid, and a plastic bag took to the air and made a run for it. But on the plus side I got this great painting out of it! #pleinair #onlocation #watercolor #artsky #urbansketchers #art #sketch
A little sketch of Pike Place Market while waiting for friends to arrive. A great thing about sketching is you can do it anywhere! #sketch #urbansketchers #pikeplacemarket #onlocation #pleinaire #art #tradart
Watercolor is starting to click! The exuberant yellow foliage of these tall, thin trees in Magnuson Park in Seattle struck me as I was looking for what to paint. #watercolor #sketch #onlocation #pleinaire #urbansketchers #landscape #art
Happy Thanksgiving! And thanks to this barred owl for hanging out and letting me sketch it! Feel lucky to have stumbled on it and noticed it camouflaged in plain site. #owl #sketch #lifedrawing
Just a fountain pen on this grey Thanksgiving Eve. It’s nice to focus on one tool. Also good b/c it started misting, so I was glad to be able to move faster! Ignore the white paint—I used this sheet as a test sheet earlier. 😅 #sketch #drawing #landscape #urbansketchers #nature #art
Took my new gloves for a test drive, and I'm happy to say that they work! Kept my hands a workable temperature on a day where I had to pull up my puffy jacket's hood. Really like how this sketch turned out. Playing with approaches continues. #watercolor #onlocation #pleinaire #urbansketchers #art
I've come a long way with my on location sketching techniques and materials since the end of 2023! It's great to look back and see healthy progress. Enjoyed a great #urbansketchers Seattle chapter outing this weekend at KEXP. #art #sketch #onlocation #watercolor #tradart
Learning lots, learning lots. Watercolor is hard! #watercolor #sketch #pleinaire #onlocation #urbansketchers #art #tradart
BTW, Short Run went great! Thank you to everyone who checked out my table and bought books! There was a steady flow of visitors despite the new location. I had by far my best show yet, and even sold out of the stock of The BOOK of DEATH Haiku Comics that I'd brought. A good sign for its future.
The BOOK of DEATH Haiku Comics
Poetry comics illustrated and translated from the works of early modern Japanese poets

I'm making an effort to spend more time in nature and away from screens. This means I'm gonna get gud at on-location watercolor. #sketch #watercolor #pleinaire #onlocation #artsky #art
