Work in progress, closeup and cropped. Layers and layers and more to come. #oilpaint #painter #figuration

Process. #art #oilpainter #artist

New series, new gigantic pallet. #artstudio #artist #pnwart

Painting has been my solace, it has been my release. It will always be political, no art is ever free of that fact.

Making the stained canvas backgrounds for my work is one of my favorite parts of making my work. #art #oilpaint #bsky.art #artist

@bsky.art oil painting? 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

Y’all ever wonder if the fall of Rome was this stupid? #romanempire

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” -Theodore Roosevelt

Welcome and ENJOY! That book is one of my favorites in the series.

It’s ok, for every unfollow you find people more aligned with you. Like me, what’s up! Can’t wait to see your book content.

I’ve been catching myself unable to stop doomscrolling since late January. Has it finally happened? Has my anxiety fully run amuck? Possibly. Am I stuck in a place between fear of being seen and needing people to see my work? Absolutely. What a strange time to exist.

Finished with all of the SJM books, all three series and now I’m free to move onto other things! First new book of the year 🫶🏼 #books #tbr

Truth #animalwhisperer

New year. As artists what are you working on in your practice? Mine this year is craftsmanship! I want all my work to be elegant and structurally sound in all settings. #art #artists

Day 9! #ArtAdventCalendar
From the studio today, fresh, wet paint.

One thing you will never think after reading a great book or listening to a great album or seeing a great piece of art is, “I’m really glad this person remained cautious while they were making this and guarded against being perceived as weird.”

So are we still having to still poison our own images because of content scrapers and AI? What are we doing as artists over on this platform? #art #artistproblems #artcommunity

You nailed it 💯 precise and concise!

I love the loss of control from staining raw canvas. Some of the patterns that emerge really hit me in the acid flashback. IYKYK.

I have given her a name, and I tell her to stfu with gusto.

And if that doesn’t work, I remind myself that every piece is a diary entry. It doesn’t matter if it’s “good” or “bad” it’s a record of where I was when I made it.

Gorgeous cover! 🥰

Staining more canvases for future work 🌿💚

Shots from the studio 🌿✨building texture on these canvases is the first of many, many layers.

My mood from now until eternity.
