Realistic painting of two losing scratch tickets.

I hate painting straight lines and text. So naturally…

Digital observational painting in Procreate to explore neutral lighting on a grey day. Still exploring best approach in Procreate but I love how easy it is to pick up and use.

Messy sketch- trying to get paint down before the truck drove off.

Morning paint 5.8. Not exactly what I envisioned. Ah well. Lovely day to get outside.

This juvenile American toad was about an inch long. I found it in Maine, held it between my fingertips, and painted it at 10x scale in oil. I wanted to give it more presence than a passing glance.
Painted from my own reference. Oil on toned ground.

The artist’s hand holds up a sketchbook opened to a red page. On it lies a thumb-sized painting of two slices of cantaloupe, brightly lit and casting a shadow onto the surface beneath them.
Tiny cantaloupe paint.

A hand holds up a sketchbook. A sketchy painting stretches across both pages. It depicts a miniature pavlova, a dessert made with baked egg whites and topped with a bit of cream and fruit. It sits on a white plate.
Mini pavlova, painted quite fast. Didn’t bother to make a proper ellipse for the plate, but I like it.

Self portrait in oil of a woman looking into a mirror, holding a book. The mirror frame and the door the mirror is hanging on is partially visible. The painting is a work in progress and some areas are lightly scrubbed in.
WIP of a self portrait painted from life. Spent an embarrassing amount of time on this already but kept getting pulled into other things.
I started this in a wonderful class w/ the painter Kathleen Hall who gave me great feedback.

Another white T-shirt. I’m liking the painterly quality of this one more, but not sure the color is quite right.

Unsure if this is done and I love it…or if I need to repaint the whole thing. 🤷
