An abstract piece inspired by Hans Bellmer.
This #painting depicts a biomorphic form comprised of a fleshy sphere, bony scaffolding, and many visceral shapes.

My first painting of 2026!

This is an oil painting of a man with his hands holding his face against a pinkish red background. He has a pensive, dreamy expression. The style is loose and lightly abstract similar to Lucien Freud and Jenny Saville.

Finally sat myself down and finished a portrait after not being able to paint at all in the last three months.

Found this watercolor portrait I did for art class a couple years ago.

Just finished this oil painting.
This is an oil painting of a monk. He is wearing dark red robes. His eyes are closed in an expression of meditation.

Never take any pro-generative-ai arguments in good faith, especially from techbros. They know ai is bad for art and artists. That’s precisely why they like it.

This piece seems to generate wildly differing interpretations. Some think it's just a whimsical portrait with floral accents, some think it's hiding a dark past. I never expected it would create such ambiguity.

#art #artistsonbluesky #watercolor #flowers
This is a watercolor portrait of a woman with flowers painted on her skin. Her expression is ambiguous.

Here’s an attempt at a dreamy watercolor.

#artistsonbluesky #surreal #myart
This is a surreal watercolor. It depicts a woman dreaming of a morphing, liquid landscape with trees, hills, stars, and moon all blending together.

I don't usually make art like this, but I'm a big fan of sci-fi and psychedelic art. Especially the kind found on 70s prog-rock album covers. This took about 40 hours to complete.

#artistsonbluesky #oilpainting #drawing #scifi #alien #psychedelic
This is a psychedelic portrait of a witch's head floating in multicolored smoke. Her face is green and her hands are blue. Her hands are poised like they're casting a spell. She has a large opal embedded in her forehead. Her skull is split at the top revealing blood-red brain matter. The earth's moon is positioned directly above her head. Below is a portal opening to another planet's sky. There are two moons showing: one white and one orange.

A painting of a former co-worker in Alaska. She’s lying on the hood of an abandoned school bus.

This is an oil painting of a woman lying on top of an abandoned school bus in Alaska. The bus is rusty and full of holes. Her arm is hanging down over the grill.
