"Showdown"
Another silly thing inspired by weird medieval marginalia.

Turnip guy...inspired by some weird medieval art 😂

My latest piece, I've been super busy lately so it's been harder to find drawing time and I miss it! This one in Inktense and colored pencil with Micron pens.

First test on my new DTF equipment! Now I can make shirts and bags, I just need to make more designs that work for this 😄

Doodling with watercolors, sometimes you just need to see some happy colors 🌸🪻🌼

Just a sparkly little fish because I felt like it ✨️🐠

Little detail of my current painting, I've been super busy with work so I'm just picking away at this one very slowly...I usually plan the layout in advance but I'm just adding things as I feel like.

Have a lovely weekend, fellow dreamers 💙

Even my pickles have anxiety these days...

Throwback Thursday!
This is a colored pencil piece I did probably about 9 years ago. Leafy sea dragons just look so magical ✨️

Life is hard for a lot of us right now and the future is looking a little scary...I hope you all can find some little sparks of happiness even in the dark times.

Just finished this little cutie! Colored pencils on gray pastelmat.
"Cotton Harvest"

The frogs have returned to my yard now that it's warming up...I love sleeping with my window open so I can hear them at night 💚

I occasionally think it might be nice to paint outside...then my paint dries too fast, my chickens harass me, bugs stick to the canvas, and the wind knocks my easel over and I remember why I don't paint out there 🤣 I lasted about 15 minutes today before giving up.

A peaceful alien 👽

We're having a bit of flooding here on the Oregon coast at the moment, but it does bring out a lot of my favorite little creatures 🌨 These are a few older drawings, I can't actually remember when I drew them!

Who else is anxious for spring and brighter days? You can feel it coming! 🩷💚💜
"The Return of Magic"
Acrylic on canvas, just finished (the gloss is still wet 😆)

I finished this piece last night, colored pencils on pastelmat. I was just in the mood for spring after this long rainy winter! I haven't come up with a title yet, but this is my first hummingbird art. I could not resist that beautiful little nest 🥰

Thought I should post one of my oldest (and biggest!) pieces, an old rusty Dodge that I painted for a college art show back in 2001 or so...it takes up a whole wall in my living room. I hope to do another piece this large someday but it's not very practical 😆 I love rusty old things.

Just finished - Moira, the Goblin Healer. She's waiting for her patients and has her herbs and potions ready!

How I spent my birthday 🎂 🎨🐈‍⬛
Art, kitties, and a cup of tea!

I've been slacking off on posting for a few days, working on multiple projects but since none are finished yet, here's an acrylic painting I did a while back called "Jeffrey."

I found this cool trim and ended up making a toddler dress based on it, so much fun! ♠️♥️♣️♦️

Progress Pic of my current colored pencil drawing, I love the "fuzzy" look I can get with pastelmat, it's definitely becoming my favorite paper. This light beige makes the white stand out nicely.
