She’s bright and pink and done! Bubbles!
I learned a lot while working in her and am rather happy how that tongue came out. 👅
She’s a cutie pataootie, and I am honored I was asked to paint her.
Now on her to her cousins!!

Working in the first of six. Making my linework base map before painting. I found my brain works better when using colored pencils for my line art.
Also it melts into the watercolor better later.

The oil painting is on pause as I realized that my current space and set up is not good for the medium.
So back to watercolors I go, just in time to get a big commission project! ❤️

It may not look like much but doing hands on learning with a new medium to reinforce the knowledge about color theory does help.
And I am digging the texture FOR ONCE. 😅

Learning to oil paint is both scary and rewiring the brain to do it is hard.
Especially when one brush tries to sabotage you. It got put in brush jail.

Goliath, he’s finally done. I even peeled him out but I need to iron him flat some day.

So this was watercolor, gouache and colored pencils.

Daylight helps. But only a little. I’m gonna fix his eyes. Fix the edge and inner folds of his wings. Do the gold earrings and maybe black out his claws before calling quite.

A gift painting I began 2+years ago and am STRUGGLING with.
But.. I am learning how to work around obstacles so there’s that. Where it’s at vs how it started.

Sometimes I have to remind myself that I DO have some skills. And seeing these two commissions for a friend reminds me of that. Though I don’t think I’ll ever get over that even of pink 😭

Slowly but surely coming along however this paper… I have a sneaking suspicion that this is NOT the brand I thought it was.
Next time each sheet is getting their own holder with LABELS.
