Yes, I come bearing new art. Of course, it’s only new because I’ve taken so long to finally get it posted here, but let’s not quibble about minor details, all right? And I’ve been trying to get back into doodling some more, to kickstart my brain somewhat but it’s sadly not working. Everything I try […]

So the September 30-in-30 Painting Challenge hosted by Leslie Saeta has ended and I managed to do 25/30 paintings for the month. That’s not too bad, actually, considering I had a mild art block in the middle of the month and then life happened for a bit there. I really did want to do the […]

So I disappeared for a few (okay, several) days there. I was still painting, but not with the verve that I started the month off with. Not sure what happened. I did have a bit of an art block but it wasn’t much of one. I’d fallen far enough behind that I ended up only […]

Today’s painting was actually inspired by a photograph posted on a forum I frequent. I just really liked the look and feel of the image and asked permission to try doing an abstract version. Mine has a far different atmosphere than his image does, mostly because it’s brighter looking rather than a moody evening long-exposure […]

So here’s that background I posted yesterday, finished with some retro circles in purple and crimson. I just felt like doing something simple so I got out the circle template and had some fun. Along with my trusty crow quill pen, this is the result. Day 17 – “Bubbles” Watercolor on paper 4″ x 6″ […]

I love this piece. No, I mean I really, really love it. It turned out much better than I could have hoped when I started working on it. Another in the Flow series, I felt like using purples (as you can see from yesterday’s piece) and since the only one I own is way more […]

Today’s piece highlighted some of the disadvantages of working with very wet washes, especially if you aren’t careful to make sure the edge of your tape is sealed down properly. And since it takes longer for the paper to dry under the paint, something like this will happen : The painting itself isn’t damaged, just […]

And here is today’s piece. I did it at the same time as “Flow” from day 12 but I added lavender bath salts to create a larger texture on the page (and make it smell like lavender!). I then decided to outline those areas and fill in the background space with lines, using white ink. […]
