As of March 2020 many cities and states in the USA are dealing with the spread and containment of Corvid-19 in different ways. This includes social distancing and quarantines which are changing how many use their leasure time.
As a visual creative I have decided to offer what my skills are, visual distraction, in the form of coloring pages.
These pages are free. Download them, color them, enjoy! If you choose I would love to see the results on social media!
The current pages can can be downloaded at the link below.

Copper and Blood Drip
//Burnished and flashing, the wolf comes. Stalking my dreams with acrid intent. Copper and sparks falling from their tongue. Snap, snap, I am left gasping, as the vice closes. These dreams shake me, waking me, and leaving the taste of copper on my tongue. // This reclaimed skate board is reborn. Found in the Redwood groves in California this piece shimmered and thundered in. My Patreon supporters got to see this piece a week ago and follow along during its incarnation. www.patreon.com/ishaway |

If there is an image of mine you HAVE to have on another board type please drop me a note or email. It can be made a reality. //This listing is for a PRE-ORDER item! Please keep in mind that no boards will ship until mid to late July// Thanks so much for your interest! -Ishaway Etsy | Google Order Form |

Cosmic Fox
This little figure & others like them have existed around me since I was very young. They twist & arc like ribbons in a breeze. I love working on this intimate scale.

Mandala Caracal
This piece is one I have been picking at since October/November-ish of 2018. It has been slow going, but has finally clicked together wonderfully.

Dreaming: Wolf Song
It is nice having a Dreaming style piece finished in under four months. It was magical expanding on the combination of the Dreaming style with watercolors. I started this vein in Dreaming: Sol in 2018. I am delighted with how layered this piece became. This image will be with me at BLFC in the art show in May. —————-- Patreon got to peek at this piece a handful of days before the rest of the world. They also got updates along the way!

Desert Vibes
A small Dreaming style painting, featuring everyone’s favorite yapping potato, the ‘yote. This piece was picked up and put down for most of 2018 (literally, I had the inks started last February) and now it is finally done. This piece will be at the BLFC Art Show in May! ------- This piece went live on my Patreon on February 28th |

Dream Visitor
The noble visitor is finally finished. This piece has been a wonderful ride and learning experience for me. I fall in and out of love with acrylics. They are fun, and can do things watercolor never can, but they are also scary and time consuming. This piece was no different. I played and pushed with UV layers and iridescent pigments a lot on this piece. Which resulted in wonderful in person interactions. Thank you to all you wonderful Patreons for joining me on this adventure. Ay we all burst into 2019 full of radiant glory. This work has sold.

Shimmer Viper
This piece came together swiftly. This is a miniature I will have at FC in a couple of weeks! The Goulet inks were super enjoyable to work with. They are not as intense as India ink, but bleed and fade in wonderful ways. After the ink base was down I started layering with watercolor and gouache with some colored pencil details. Some of the inks have a shimmer quality when layered, which is lovely in person. |

Inktober -- Crawl
Windy nights shake things loose, or wake things up. Sometimes that sound in the crawl space is not just a rat. —— Super pleased with the vibe I was able to achieve in this beast. |
|
Dreaming: Sea Otter
This piece was done on a skateboard picked up in Seward, Alaska as part of a skateboard art show. While in Alaska one of my siblings was hunting for otter merch. They are one of her favorite animals. We literally found 3 things. One was a NWP style item, the other two were mugs. So I decided to paint an otter on this skateboard. |
|
|
Dreaming: Humpack
Another skateboard to add to the ever growing number I have painted. This one is not a standard skatedeck, but a long board. The shape of longs boards is very visually lovely to me. They glide and allow riders to move swiftly. Thus I painted a humpback whale, one of the most calming animals to watch swim. |
|
Traveler
They come, With strange tea and a penchant for stories. Offering insight we can only hope to understand. They are Travelers. I feel I am finished with this fellow for now. These Travelers are figures I keep revisiting and hopefully understanding better. I am excited to share more of them with you all. --- Patreons got WIPS, early access to this image, and more! |

Enlightened Meditating Rabbit
Meditation leads to higher thought, expanding of the mind. Seated in a lilac colored lotus the white rabbit's aura shines with rainbow iridescence. The rainbow treated metal of the halo of this rabbit, paired with the purple lotus represent spiritual growth. This soft enamel pin is: -35 mm tall -Features a single pin, with butterfly clasp Pins can be purchased at my Etsy storefront! Due to the nature of the metal treatment each pin is slightly unique, with some leaning toward turquoise shades and others featuring more purples. This makes each pin just a little different, and just a little magical. The enamel colors are the same on each pin. |

Solar and Lunar Eclipse Kitsune
With all the Kickstarter rewards now sent out I have added the Lunar and Solar Eclipse Kitsune pins to my Etsy store! I will be bringing these pins with me to my summer conventions too! |
Dreaming: Sol
The sun rises, hot and powerful.
This piece has been at different phases of progress over 2017, leading to another image in the Dreaming Series. I have been wanting to do a detailed horse Dreaming piece.
This image was a lot of fun to work on. Salt on hot press paper is always a trip.
Patreons got access to this post 2 days earlier than the rest of the world.

Coyote Woman Listening
A small watercolor started in December 2017. The imagery of the Coyote Woman has been a presence in my early life and has only continued. Some versions of the myth present a woman who agrees to marry Coyote if he can come back from death 3 times. Some I was exposed to earlier have a woman who can skin change. Watercolor, colored pencil, interference paint on watercolor paper |

Behind the Milky Way
Journey far, listen Seeing beyond the Milky Way's shadow To inhale vapors. I am here to find; Taste fennel, smell clover Where visions are born My last finished piece of 2017. Started after a strange dream and rumbling purrs of odd guides. I am setting intentions for 2018. May yours be full of fire, tenacity, and deep seated strength. |

Golden Shall
Wrapped in gold, lead Feel the paradigm shift forward The sun return grows all This year I finished a winter holiday image. I am not a practitioner of any of the monotheistic faiths; as a result the majority of holiday card motifs are ones I do not wish to propagate. So I rendered out my own. Solstice will be at 11:28 Am December 21st this year. Bring joy the light, and end the long nights. I have ordered a small amount of cards with this image to bring with me to MFF, and send out to friends and family. |

Hungry Gods...
These gods are hungry, rumble Flesh and love starved they hunt In dreams they come, hungry This piece thundered out like a hurricane. I am very glad the sketch book the rough lived in fell on my foot a couple of weeks ago so that I could render this piece out. This is a Patreon supported piece. Want to help me make more like it?

Dreaming: Orcas
Orcas and tribal tides, leaving spine tingling and ears ringing like a deep pressure dive. This piece will be with me at Biggest Little Fur Con (early June) and Anthro Con (late June). |
Death Promises
The Black Rabbit of Inel has become a source of inspiration for me... for over a year now. A figure of death and thus balance, the imagery surrounding him in popular culture is both touching and macabre.
Featured here with stinging nettle and white clover flowers, the Black Rabbit of Inel promises death.
March and April have become less painful for me (connected to the sudden loss of two pets in 2015). Working through those feelings of mourning through creative works has been a healthy release.

Out run the Dogs
The fruit of a collaborative project with a local art friend, turned collab auction. He did the digital base, I transferred to paper to ink and paint it. It has been a long while since I have done a project this large, and after a couple of less than glamorous starts the piece is finally complete. A long over due commission for a very patient client, Cyrix. |
