Finished oil portrait of Merle (minus the varnishing step, which will come at another time), plus some close up shots. I love painting dark fur and playing up the blues and purples that often reflect off of it. #painting #art

Just finished and still figuring out a title for this one. Painted digitally on Procreate. It’s rough out here.

A peek of something I’ve been working on digitally. I feel so much more confident with my digital paintings after this past year, hopefully nobody minds the break from traditional every once in a while. #wip

I'm frightened for us. I do not think it's an overreaction. Not remotely.

I visited the Dunn Museum last weekend, where they currently have about 75 Bob Ross paintings on display. I have such fond memories watching the Joy of Painting. I was also surprised by the number of ocean paintings he’s done!
