Ink brush/watercolor sketch

Trying to pull myself out of this current art funk- playing around with ink sketches and watercolor. In progress. Also to save time I have been taking all these photos with my phone.

Dramatic changes

Looking very different as the white spaces go black

Mixed media in progress

Painting in progress

A painting I started working on a while ago, and now in short bursts since then. It's getting there

A drawing a day: 5. lotus flowers

Drawing a day july 5th! Watercolor flowerrrsssss!! These are done in watercolor on watercolor paper with black and white ink. I made a couple to send as thank you's for my two relatives that gave me graduation gifts. The green/yellow one got sent, the purple/blue is up for sale in my Etsy Shop!

comic: new sheets

A silly little comic. My sheets are now pink and made of luxurious and inexpensive jersey fabric.

Resin experiments

Here is a tiny glimpse at my first resin attempts!

I have an easy casting low-odor resin kit, and these specially made molds. I've seen a lot of people make candy-filled pieces, and they were so cute I decided that would be my first attempt.

Lego heels! My attempt!

 

LEGO HEELS. If you saw it floating around on the internet, an artist made an adorable pair of lego heels. Inspired, I decided to try and make my own. Now, these aren't completely finished (I ran out of legos) but they are pretty close to done.

Now where does one wear a delightful pair of heels such as this?

Tornado lady painting in progress

 

Wood painting progress! We recently had a tornado in my state, so this image of a lady tornado have been in my mind. This is acrylic on a wood board. I did the drawing with a watercolor stick so I could wash off the drawing lines if I made a mistake (although composition-ally I think I put the lady in a little low)

23rd birthday!

My 23rd birthday was on may the ninth of this year, and I had a lovely magical time.

I really like celebrating... holidays and birthdays are things I really look forward to. That is why every year I try to squeeze as much birthday activity as I possibly can.

We had the family party on sunday: Takeout sushi, box of chocolates, silly birthday hat, magical rainbow my little pony cake.

My boyfriend is so sweet and understands how important my birthday is to me. He took me into the city so I could go to all my favorite places, we ate sushi for lunch, and hot pot for dinner. We had bubble tea, went to the comic book shop, got beads at the bead store, cake in chinatown, and he drove the whole time so I didn't have to be stressed in traffic.

 Looking at these pictures again is making me hungry

 

Hot pot with friends! Hotpot is so delicious I can't handle it 

 

Thanks to everyone who celebrated with me or wished me a happy birthday! Lets do it again next year.
