"I Remember" 14x11 acrylic/canvas I love to paint animals, but I think I've decided that figures are the way to go in this new age I've entered.May as well try to paint what I love and no worry so much about what will sell, right?Que sera sera #art#popsurrealism#fantasyart#newcontemporary#figurative

I do the odd pet portrait for hire. Here is "Kody" 14x11 acrylic on linen canvas, commissioned by a lovely lady back in Louisiana to surprise a friend. Obviously, Kody was a pittbull, but apparently a very sweet one. #art#petportrait#pittbull#paintingoncanvas#gottalovedogs #traditionalart

"Migration" 14x18 acrylic on board. Seems like a few of my paintings lately are about escape. Hmmm. Wonder why? #art #newcontemporary#wowxwow#surrealism#figurativeart #storytellingart#2Dart#acrylicpainting#fantasyart #annettehassellart

I've had so many paintings to do for the first half of 2025,that I haven't had time to work on any portraits.Happily, the second half of 2025 is much more manageable,so I think I'll have time to get back to them.I'm a pretty avid Kpop fan,so I think I'll draw a few of my favorites. #fanart#portraits

Sometimes, I paint just for me.I've dealt with depression for years.This painting, "Smoky" is to remind myself about that cycle of hanging on and letting go. It's complicated. I'm happy to say that I've been fine these past few years.Meanwhile, let's try to be kind to each other and to ourselves.

Here's an old painting of mine called "Greed". I stumbled across it recently and thought that it sums up the atmosphere around here pretty well.I was going to paint over it but ended up hanging it up instead.I feel like a fortune teller. #painting #acrylics #art #fantasy #dystopia

A few years ago,I took up pastel pencils just to learn something new,and started doing fanart portraits.I loved to draw/paint people,but let it go-worried about what would sell (as one does).I've decided it's time paint what I love, so here goes-wish me luck? #fanart#pastelpencil#figurative#art
