Back to Canvases!

Recently, I made two canvases - something I had not done for a very long time.

It was nice to get back to something a little more familiar, but also amazing because I have so many more tools now with doing a lot of tangling and using new mediums.

 I hope to have these two at the Bluffton Seafood and Arts Festival October 12th. Hope to see people there!

The End of September Faces and Finding Edward.

Towards the end of this, I was truly starting to hate drawing faces. I felt uninspired. I felt like my faces were ugly. I didn't want to do them. Well, I didn't even want to post them.
I ended up picking up a book on how to draw kawaii style and started playing around with a couple of animals. I drew a girl. That wasn't so bad all of a sudden.

And then, I drew Edward.

Edward was fun. He is creepy, weird and oddly happy. I never thought at the end of this I would end up drawing a creepy little guy, but I am certain glad I did.

Flowers and face #5


This piece is called, "There Are Always Flowers."  Made with my new Sankura watercolors, Neocolor II, and Sharpie.  A lot of fun to make.

Seems like I have always been drawn to painting flowers in high school and even now in my more recent work- so many flowers.  I think I enjoy how happy they feel to paint.

On a side note, it is a good thing to force yourself out of your comfort zone, so another portrait it is!  I don't think I have ever colored a portrait with watercolors...but it was fun!

We are all connected

I made this picture last night while on the phone with a friend.  All I could think about was how we are all connected in so many ways - whether we like it or not.

Created with acrylics, gelli pad, paint marker, and gel pens.
