Spent a week away from art and recharged my batteries. A lot of reading didn’t happen but I did read enough to recharge my batteries. Here is a self portrait study. #selfportrait #watercolor #watercolorselfportrait #watercolorstudy #portrait #watercolorportrait #art #illustration #watercolorillustrations https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz66H7OFUJ3/?igshid=13rdu9vehyka

Man was this a pain to post on here. At least, I am having fun drawing this lovely lady that’s sucking up the souls she has drowned. #oni #onigirl #waterdemon #illustration #sketch #soulsucker #procreate #digitalart #digitalillustration https://www.instagram.com/p/BzDq24UF3-5/?igshid=mjxxpk2smv7b

I really had the urge to draw today. I had no clue what I wanted to draw but I just knew I needed too. Anyways, here is what I came up with. I’m not finished and hope to develop this further. Trying to break a rut. #art #artofinstagram #procreate #digital #digitalart #digitalsketch #sketch https://www.instagram.com/p/ByYzg_dlbsR/?igshid=ba3waat8zv75

I’ve been trying different places to record my videos for YouTube. I have a inexpensive set up for recording but I’m discovering problems on my way of figuring out the best spot. BUT that gives me the opportunity to fix it and learn and rearrange my set ups!!!

Well I’m feeling good about mermay! I think I’ve drawn 4 figures and one head shot. I’ve colored one! And waiting to edit the video. Now this one has made my heart flutter. Look at all that hair! #mermay #mermay2019 #illustration #artofinstagram #art #drawing #mermaid https://www.instagram.com/p/BxP-higFqD1/?igshid=7zfcov8nrgut

So an all day excursion!!! Drew two full figure mermaids. Working on an illustration that I had planned. AND colored said mermaid and recorded it for YouTube!!! Progress!!! I’ve been neglecting my channel but life got in the way and I’m excited about this video!!! This month will be a good month I think to post on my channel since I’ve got several pieces in the work. One thing I enjoy about #Mermay is that it challenges me to not do portraits and work on the figure. I love the figure but lack the confidence in drawing it. I was pleased how this formed turned out and will continue to push myself. #mermay #mermay2019 #noprompt #mermaid #fighter #artofinstagram #fantasy #fantasyart #illustration #watercolor #paulreubens https://www.instagram.com/p/BxGt0T6lSHX/?igshid=1redlqxx94jhd

It’s a cloudy day and I’ve been overwhelmed with inspiration. The problem though is the ideas are there but putting pencil to paper, the works just doesn’t come. It is frustrating. It is disappointing, but that’s what art does to you. Make art every day and push through the difficult times. #artofinstagram #drawing #process #worksinprogress #drawingonpanel #art https://www.instagram.com/p/BxFnmucFAl6/?igshid=175mn6r0fg1qd

I did it! I drew a mermaid! Haha not really. But it counts right??? Well here’s breaking the rut. I threw away four drawings until I was happy. #mermay #mermay2019 #drawing #artofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw-1ifxFEDI/?igshid=1hace0sxfryo

Hello hello!! I’m back!! Sorry for the long wait! I’ve been busy with my full time job but no worries I’ve been sketching!!! I’m working on the next YouTube video!! Going to get it out by Thursday. Keep an eye out!! Also been planning #mermay2019. I won’t be doing it everyday. I broke down the days by weeks and chose a prompt for that week. That way I can create a definite piece that has quality and I don’t get burned out. The planning process has helped, and it gets me out of my comfort zone of drawing portraits. I’ve been hating figure drawing so much lol. Anyways quick update to let you all know I’m alive!!! #artofinstagram #sketch #update #process #thumbnails #art #drawing https://www.instagram.com/p/BwzcS4qF8s9/?igshid=16ivqpjlc0l4s

It’s been two weeks since I last posted!!! Agh!!! Well let’s just update you all. One this piece is almost done. Problem is, this was suppose to be my next YouTube video. Due to the almighty gods of mischief, my process of this video, yet again, got messed up. Unlike the last video, and my first one, there is no saving. Large chunks were missing. So, with that I became upset and frustrated. So I stopped working on it and just let it sit. Now the past week I’ve been piddling on it and getting inspired to complete it. I’ve changed things that I had done and it helped. Now letting paint dry and a few more coats then retouch the ink and it’s done. One of my favorite pieces of this year and by far the best I’ve done so far in the past few years that I’ve focused on my art. I’m trying to break my mental hold on things that were told to me to not do. I just wanna do what I want to do!!! #artofinstagram #drawing #illustration #watercolorpainting #ink #watercolor #fantasy #fantasyart #elf #elven #elvenart #elfart #woodlandelf #workinprogress https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv1daRFlgSA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wynqy6ekmm7m

I had planned for her to be an unnatural skin tone but in the end I couldn’t bring myself to do that. I feel a little bit of myself in her. #artofinstagram #drawing #illustration #watercolor #fantasy #fantasyart #elf #elven #watercolorpainting #youtube https://www.instagram.com/p/BvSY8u_lkoD/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xwknyu3smx8o
