The Super Bloom is still going in SoCal! On the trail are poppies, daisies, alyssum and now the mustard grass is in bloom. My process was an iPhone photo, then a drawing with color and then collage in Photoshop.

hahaaaa... sad times... I had a friend who had recently shot himself, and while everyone else with this prompt drew birthday parties and other kinds of happy surprises, I drew this, you can only imagine how concerned my art teacher was. Also, the lack of sleep I had was wearing on me, I spelled surprise wrong so I had to go on paint and correct it. It was the beginning of the school year and my friend had killed himself just at the end of summer break, when I was so busy having fun in the sun, it was the most surprising event I have experienced. So I tried to paint a beautiful scene with bright colors with a depressing scenario so that it wouldn't really match up... aka surprise.

A.k.a. the quick sketch of an interesting post that turned into two weeks of trying to digitally paint trees. Including close up for eye detail.

It is a gold imortalization of a moment in a rest in the grass, and under the branches of a high urapan

Plein air watercolour of arisaig on the west coast of Scotland. We holidayed there a few times. It's a very beautiful part of the world.

I created this card for someone to bring to a Law of Attraction event. I drew the flower, came up with the phrase, and then set the type. The blue background is iStock.

Watercolour Pencils mostly....

Coloured pencils used to create a Victorian scene. This is my other style of artwork. Previous posts are based on reality, but I do a lot of little illustration style drawings from my imagination.Thanks for looking.

I just finished another character design! This one is traditional, but I will eventually create a digital version.

Sketch on paper to IPad,
