Art studio moments

I have started keeping a digital sketchbook. This is the first page.

Had a coffee break made even sweeter when this lil' cutie came by!

12 x 12" Original Abstract Acrylic Painting on Gallery Canvas. Resin finished. 2018

Another print I did for a convention

Plein-Air 1 hour painting.

Spooky sketch filled in with Golden Fluid Acrylic paint in Carbon Black. The background and other colors are watercolor.

I painted HP Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe in order to spook up Halloween. I'll probably do Stephen King, too, at some point, and maybe Shirley Jackson. Anyone have any other favorite horror novelists?

Acrylic on Moleskine sketchbook paper.

Watercolor with pen and ink koi

Its a skull that its also I guess a fish tank with an octupus inside and some weird stuff haha

Made with spraypaint, fineliners and markers

Mother Nature (and fun jungle-y textiles)-inspired work!

Sometimes I like to challenge myself and draw something completely different and full of details.... this was a bit tedious :) but I am glad I did this, it was a great workout for the brain!

Flowers in watercolor

Negative painting technique brought about this murky sea world in watercolor

A still life painted in watercolours.

butterflies # ????? : two holly blues. This was a hard one and worthy of an art block with top and bottom wings distinguishing the species, composition and pose was almost impossible. Cue two of the Holly Blues! :)

butterfly #4: The Clouded Yellow. The hardest part here is the background! It would be too easy just to paint a cloud...I have about 5-6 different backgrounds, but only uploading one here is my fav of the bunch

Watercolor painting of a sea turtle

Page 2 of the literal butterfly calendar project
