Something that I have been wanting to do is to get a zoo pass.
And I did it, why?
- Drawing from life is supposed to be best. Atleast, that’s what the “experts” say.
- AI is destroying reference photos.
- Inspiration!
This morning, I sat down and worked from my reference photos on some Gibbons.
Every artist has their own process, but here is mine and how I create fine art reproductions. Up next, I’ll show you how I get them in the computer.

Morning doodle session brought about a chonky little duck. So, I just had to make a mini gouache painting of her.
Spring is coming!
This cutie found his forever home last night!
I love making these mini gouache paintings. They bring me a lot of joy!
Oh no!!! This is what I get for not being on the up and up. Thank you for sharing!

Today is my birthday. 🎁
I’m older than I feel most days. Other days I feel older than I am. 🤣
One of my favorite quotes about birthdays is by my fave author, Neil Gaiman. “May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams and good madness”.
Thank you Neil. I think I will do just that.
Nigel
Remember the goldfish at the fairs? Sadly waiting, eating flake food and hopeful for a new start?
Well, that was where Nigel’s story began and fortunately, he got himself into the best home. One where they feed him fresh food, like blueberries!
Prints available 2/28
Love this friend!

His acquaintances call him Bert but his close friends and family call him Bubbles.

One of my latest paintings that I have been working on.
This guy has been through some phases for sure but I believe him to be complete in this moment. 🤣

I made a cute “short” video to share with you. But, I didn’t realize we are limited to 60 seconds here.
