Oil painting in progress of a hyrax
I spent my last day of vacation starting a new painting and listening to Edward Rutherford’s epic novel “China”. Painting the opossum was great fun that I’m trying my hand at a hyrax. They’re such derpy little guys and I’m obsessed with their fangs.

Oil painting of an opossum
The opossum is done! Even while studying #art in undergrad, oil painting seemed intimidating Now, 20+ years later I have the courage and curiosity to do it. I’ve learned so much about trusting the process and myself.
I hope you’re doing ok. If you’re feeling lost, take an art class.

An oil painting of an opossum
Opposum painting update. We learned how to do color blocking last week. I am delighted that the painting still looks like an opposum!

I whipped this one out today. It’s the first time not using a guide and instead just looking at a picture and guessing colours. I’m digging it! #newpainter #paintinginacrylic #cullman #trusttheprocess
Annnd I’m done! What do you think? #newpainter #lavenderfields #paintinginacrylic #trusttheprocess #cullman
Trust the process! It doesn’t start out looking good. Still a long way to go and lots of tweaks in store for this one. #trusttheprocess #newpainter #cullman #cullmanart #painting
Today’s finished product. Who likes poppies? It’s not perfect but I’m still learning. #poppies #stilllearning #newpainter #cullman
Painting my actual minis. Dancers of Azathoth from the new Cthulhu Death May Die.
I couldn’t figure out how to get the speedpaints murky so I did a base of the washed green, then a purple/white mixture over the green then the green over the purple in some spots. Okay results. #boardgames #newpainter
Still need to give him a proper base, but I’m proud of this guy! I learned a ton during this process and I can’t wait to do more! A great first attempt if I say so myself. #warhammer #minipainting #newpainter
This was created for a Halloween costume 🤭 A “peach” and a plug.
The line drawing is done by my incredibly talented husband!
I paint sometimes. #watercolors #painter #newpainter #justforfun
