A fun little gouache study today. The weather was too nice to pass up! Really should have been working on homework... But I'm glad I took the time. I had p...

Started a quick doodle of Ma playing her games last night... Kept thinking to myself how much I'd rather be using paint. It just would have been faster and...

Couldn't sleep. Was trying to organize my files... and look for inspiration. You never know when you'll find a gem you missed! Anyways, stumbled on this qu...

A few more minutes on this one... Sun came up quicker than I expected. Think I'll go into color next go around. Still a ways to go. Have to give myself mo...

Woke up super early this morning. Was able to get a little more time in on this one before the sun came up. Still a ways to go! I feel like this one has be...

I was working on the downstairs painting area... aka the basement. Found a bunch of old paintings stored in shirt boxes. I thought they were empty. Anyway...

Another figure Friday! First one I made it to this year. Tried to approach today's sketch as a composition instead of just a sketch. As always, I wish I h...

Still cleaning up the studio now that I'm on break. This is one from a little while ago... But it seemed a fitting way to offer you all good Fortune in the ...

Hope you had a wonderful holiday weekend! See the shop for availability. More coming soon!

Had some time to kill before the Dr. yesterday. Headed out to the food court for some gestures. Then it was off to Fort Sheridan for a quick gouache sketch...

Added a bunch of paintings at great prices! Time to make some room. More coming in December...
