Hello! This weekend I got an opportunity to work in watercolor, a medium I haven’t worked in since college. It’s been a while! I’m pretty out of practice, but I thought I’d share a couple of my experiments. It’s two faces, both loosely referenced from faces of models from a magazine. By no means didContinue reading

Well, I’ve decided to call it quits with this one. There’s more I could have done, but I’m feeling anxious to start the next deer painting! This is my first (and perhaps last, haha) time doing a primary color palette. It is tough! I’ve always leaned more towards monochromatic color palettes, so doing this feltContinue reading
I haven’t been as productive lately as I would like to be. It’s a bummer because, creatively, I’ve been feeling great. I’ve had so many ideas and been filled with such inspired feelings. Unfortunately, physically, I’m still playing catch up. This is my current painting in progress. It’s of an injured deer. I originally sketchedContinue reading
Here’s a progress shot of the painting I’m working on right now, which is also of a deer. My doctor excused me to 4 weeks of “partial duty” due to my lingering COVID-19 symptoms, which I guess have become something of a temporary disability. Crossing my fingers it’s temporary, anyway. Otherwise, this is going toContinue reading
I finished this painting today. It’s officially my COVID-19 painting because I spent the entire time working on it while home sick with COVID-19. Unfortunately, COVID-19 is still impacting my life today, 3+ weeks after I first started experiencing symptoms, and I’m afraid I might end up as one of those young people who takeContinue reading
Another progress shot of this. The deer finally dried so I was able to put on a lighter layer of paint and begin adding her freckles and other details.
Here’s a progress shot of my current painting, which I’ve been spending my time in quarantine working on. It’s of another deer because, for whatever reason, deer are the only subjects I feel like depicting right now. I think a part of me feels comforted by deer. To me, they signal self-care and gentleness, twoContinue reading
Hello. A lot has happened since I last updated, so much so I feel incapable of expressing myself in paragraphs, so I am going to make a list instead. 1.) I finished that painting I started. I am selling it for $100 if anyone is interested. I can ship. It’s 16 x 12 inches, unframed.Continue reading
Just want to share a couple progress shots of pieces I’ve been working on. I’ve been feeling all the warm inspired fuzzies that come with making art as of late. Painting, particularly, has given me these fuzzies. I forgot how much I love to paint. I’m still trying to find my way through this painting.Continue reading
A lot of time has passed, and I apologize for that. The stress of the pandemic truly got to me. And I mean truly. Last Sunday, I spent the afternoon in a hospital bed while hooked up to an IV, all thanks to a 2 month OCD relapse that led to extreme food restriction and,Continue reading
