My little space at the art Faire!!

Male nude in repose on a reflective body of water. Figure is looking to the horizon. Painting done with India inks

Experimenting with new media... this was done with INK. I used India inks and acrylic inks on Ampersand's Claybord. Painting inspired by the lovely nature boy @kynly-photo.bsky.social

Sometimes I'm the model! Great work done by @hypercaustic.bsky.social

Woo woo. Many groovy artists and DJs will be here, on the 20th. I'll be there, too... sellin' stuff and dancing!

Hi! Oh! Thank you. Yeah, you may draw me. I'd be honored.

Color study in watered down acrylics of a nude male figure looking off into the distance.

Doing stuff!! I'm having fun with treating acrylics as if they were watercolors. Hehe. Thank you for @nud3jay.bsky.social for being a great model. I love this pose... looking on at a grand, beach view.

I'd be a pulsar: a pulsating neutron star!

Love the lighting. I'd want to paint this one. :)

B-day prezzie

Wooo!! Our WNBR is being held on the 26th of July, this year. I can't wait to go. But then, this is Portland... there are many naked rides speckled throughout the summer.

Oil paintong of a male nude figure standing among the reeds, facing the horizon.

I am working on this whimsical painting. At least, I want it to feel whimsical. I'll get there. Inspired by the magical @flowerjock.bsky.social

Repost/redo because I misspelled things.

Under painting / value study of a waterfall such as one might see in the pacific northwest.

The beginning of a waterfall painting. Yes, it is a waterfall I hiked to. :) beautiful Pacific Northwest.

Thank you, thank you!!

Nude male on posing cube. Model is leaning backwards and has a blindfold on.

More practice with oil pastel sticks. :) playing with warm and cool tones.

Male figure on beach. Oil pastels over top of charcoal.

So... more practicing with oil pastels. I took a charcoal drawing I had already done and added fixative. Then I played around with the oil pastel sticks. I... I.. I'm on the fence with it.

Oil pastel on clayboard. Subject is a standing, shirtless male taking in sun rays.

Practicing with oil pastel sticks. It feels like painting and drawing all at the same time. Haha. I'm also testing out these boards that are treated with a toothy, clay surface.

Making progress. I have to wait until the oil cures a bit before moving forward... but I am still working on it!!

Male figure in standing pose with arched back. Medium is India ink, water color and gouache.

Good morning! I posted the WIP for this, but never posted the finished piece. Here it is. :) :)

Today, I shall go to my studio and finish up many more paintings. Hopefully lots of posts are coming. :) :)

Made a little progress. Hopefully it's a noticeable progression. I am firming up the shadow shapes and trying to keep proportions.

Male figure on rocks along San Francisco coast line. Drawing done in charcoal. WIP

I didn't have time to tend to any of my paintings (work work cut my day short); but, I did make progress on this charcoal drawing.

I love the framing, too. Good composition, and you're a part of the environment.

Update: into the oils, now!
