The beautiful Wood Lily

One of my hobbies is learning about and working to restore native plants and habitat (and remove invasive plants) in my backyard and beyond. While most lilies we see in gardens in the US aren’t native, I wanted to showcase a beautiful example of one that is!

As much as I hate that summer is coming to an end, I do love me a good spooky season.

This would be fun in black and gray or color!

This was a fun one! Cyberpunk-inspired look. Drawn on paper, then converted to digital to experiment with color. Really love both the linework version and the color version!

A little late with this pride-inspired piece, but I celebrate pride all year anyway 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

This was a fun one! Perfect way to spend several blazing hot followed by several gloomy days.

When you accidentally splatter paint on your almost completed physical painting so you make a digital version instead 🙃

Spent a lot of time hiking and enjoying nature this week, and came away from it very creatively inspired!

Which osprey do you prefer, black and gray or color??

Another diptych from my gallery showing last year. This remains one of my favorites, and I’d love to translate it into a tattoo design.

Feeling very inspired by the fresh, neon greens of spring

I really like the idea of having a range of flash all within the same color scheme, and I think I’ll keep playing with that. For now, enjoy this flash sheet in a range of orange tones I love
