The Green Heron is one of the world’s few tool-using bird species. It often creates fishing lures with bread crusts, insects, and feathers, dropping them on the surface of the water to entice small fish. Green Herons usually hunt by wading in shallow water, but occasionally they dive for deep-water prey and need to swim back to shore—probably with help from the webs between their middle and outer toes.

Painting of California coastline. Painted this while I was still learning how to mix watercolors and the amount of water I used etc. but I still liked how this turned out!

A little illustration done with watercolour and coloured pencil on watercolour paper.

For those interested, here's the video of the speed draw to the drawing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0picXHN3ZgQ

Painted with the Kuretake Gansai Tambi art noveau set and coloured pencil.

I love the versatility of acrylic paint. You can change the consistency by adding water or acrylic mediums. These additions enable artists to create transparent glazes or thick impasto textures. The fast-drying nature of acrylics makes it easier to correct mistakes or make alterations during the painting process. This painting is part of a three piece set featuring my favorite plants painted on a soft gradient background.

Drawing on black paper

This is kind of a sad one :/ but I thought it would be fun to draw some fan art :)! If you didn’t know, this is Powder from a show called Arcane! If you haven’t see it, I highly recommend you watch it :)! P.S: She’s suppose to be sitting on her bed, but I thought it would ruin the background if I added it.

Current sketchbook obsession that has me feeling like both artist and spectator.

White crayon and watercolor. This year I'm giving Mom some art... Maybe.

Sketched a great photo from Unsplash and then added a touch of color. I really want to develop watercolor, but I also love the way that pencil simplifies vision. I like how this turned out and will continue to play with this.

I found a picture online, decided it looked really beautiful, picked up my watercolors and painted it.

I like to snuggle up in my hoodie because it makes me feel safe.

Goddess Lilith. (Yes, I know that her thigh tattoos are wrongly placed. Sadly, I cannot do anything about that now.)

Watercolor painting done in Procreate on iPad for dye sublimation project.
