Painting study using reference from @howardlyonart.bsky.social !

Nicole holds up a dragonfly. She painted the wings to have the gradient of a rainbow. This dragonfly is in drag and also is very gay.

I painted the wings of this dragonfly to make it a Drag-queen-fly hehe. I can’t wait to do a painting of this one!

Pra finalizar o trio, agora falando sobre cabelo liso

It was the challenge on the discord channel of @howardlyonart.bsky.social I think. One of my final paintings with water soluble oils, I switched to regular oils shortly after this portrait.

Thank you!

Shows woman with horns holding up her dress to the side with one hand. It is catching the light and has a red undertone. Her veil also catches the light and is a bright red. The background is fading into night with a setting sun behind some trees and bats flying far in the distance.

I did a study from the Dark Fae reference pack offered by @howardlyonart.bsky.social. I wanted to focus on the overall mood, lighting, and use of color. Ive been a little burnt out, so this was a fun and low pressure piece to do, and I really like the overall result!

I am excited and fortunate to be a finalist in this year’s Beautiful Bizarre Art Prize! “Pasithea” oil on panel 24” round

3-hour painting from last night. Oil on linen panel. #allaprima #oilpainting #portrait #painting

And thank you!

My wall easel is motorized. That is a circuit board for an Arduino that controls the soft start for the motor and remote control. 🎩

Another work in progress. “Zephyr Flirting with Flora”.

I hope you do! Thank you 🥰

Thank you! 😊

It was more than a year in the planning, including growing the flowers and figuring out how to get the camera a good 15 feet above the ground to reduce distortion.

We all also know that it is a myth and there are different versions. I am painting the “sleep” that was contained inside.

I had a blast painting my beautiful friend @artmodel-sarah.bsky.social as Tress of the Emerald Sea. She was the original model for the book! We had about 2 hours of painting time.

I love my art community!
