BlackenedHonesty

Self portrait profile painting in quarantine made in Procreate on my iPad. If you’re on Zoom chats with me this is usually what you get. Mickey Mouse earrings and all with part of my shared/studio office behind me. 🤓🖤 How are you usually dressed? (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJJPWx3DA9I/?igshid=1gdq27ffo4641

There is no such thing as “alien” it’s just all a marketing re-brand from my perspective. Older sketch recently lightly colored. 🕊#digitalart #photoshop #boy #blackenedhonesty #immigrants #immigrantchildren #refugees (at Doral, Florida)

“We LOVE the things we LOVE for what they are” [Robert Frost] A large handmade card for my dear friends @eupraxsophy and @kkwehby who got married this past weekend in Cartagena, Colombia. Congratulations and thank you for being so wonderful, sweet, fun and really honest people. I hope your union lasts a lifetime and thank you for inviting us to witness it in a such a gorgeous place like 🇨🇴. #cartagena #blackenedhonesty #mixedmedia #artistsoninstagram #igersmiami #colombia #wedding 👰🏼🤵🏻 (at Sunrise, Florida)

Wrapped this up after promising to do it for myself. Nothing fancy but needed to get this image out of my head. #blackpanther #tchalla #wakanda #avengersinfinitywar #blackenedhonesty #digitalart #digitalpainting #wakandaforever

I lost track of time and stopped drawing. Sorry guys. Hurricane Irma came and went, got laid off again and did a few weeks of work in a few places and now that I’m settled in a new job I’m drawing again. I missed this. Now for more angst ladies and men in compromising or just ...interesting poses! Also, I love my day job so maybe some email geekery will be introduced too! #blackenedhonesty #womenartistst #sketchbook #sketch #corset #emailgeek

Updated version of one of my favorite pieces "Sense of Awakenings" from many, many moons ago. Press 🖤 to CONTINUE! ✨ 🖤✨#artisticthursday #blackenedhonesty #tbt #artistsoninstagram #womanpower #artofinstagram #digitalart (at Sunrise, Florida)

“There was never a good WAR, or a bad PEACE” - Benjamin Franklin ✍🏻 Going to Philadelphia and Atlanta recently left a big impression and this will be colored/fully fleshed out eventually. #inktober2017 #inktober #ink #artofinstagram #artistsoninstagram #blackenedhonesty #fridaynight #art_collective #america (at Sunrise, Florida)

My representation of #Poison because personality wise #Lelouch was it from Code Geass. He was a complicated character but one I really enjoyed watching. 🖤💀🖤 Some crazier ones are brewing soon! Day 2 is being posted late...going to go for a few controversial ones later in the month. #Inktober #inktober2017 #inktober2017day3 #codegeass #anime #illustration #illustrator #artofinstagram #artist #artistsoninstagram #igersftl (at Sunrise, Florida)

#MondayMotivation 💫 Getting back to a style more similar to this one!

Getting projects done while I still have the power. 🌊🙌🏻 This is close to the final product. I updated #blackenedhonesty for my personal artwork and illustrations while keeping my 🐝 as a focal point AND added A Perfect A Marie [#aperfectamarie] for my professional work that I do for email marketing and heavy design work. I was well overdue and splitting up my brand so things were not so messy. Anyway, thank you for letting me have power and no tornadoes so far #hurricaneirma. I hope it keeps up. #hurricaneirma2017🌀#digitalart #designer #illustrator #emailgeek #digitalartist #artistsoninstagram #igersftl (at Sunrise, Florida)

Doodle that turned into a small painting self portrait. Added two prominent piercings, for fun but still thinking about reviving an old character... 🖤👩🏻‍🎨 #blackenedhonesty #digitalart #photoshop #artistsoninstagram #artist #selfportrait #florida #digitalpainting (at Sunrise, Florida)

I DID THE THING! 🍾You either go big or go home! After spending a long time contemplating this purchase, I decided I needed to do this if I was ever going to draw outside of my home. #payingformyhabit #datsexpensive #ipadpro #ipad #apple #artistsoninstagram #art🎨 (at Sunrise, Florida)

"Forfeit the game, before somebody else, takes you out of the frame..." Inspired to color this due to Chester Bennington's (of Linkin Park fame, amongst others) passing. They truly were a staple of high school even if I listened to heavier music at the time. I appreciated that they were a gate way band to heavy music. 🖤 Main song that inspired it "Points of Authority" from Hybrid Theory. What's your favorite #LINKINPARK song? 🤘🏻 #linkinpark #linkinparkfanart #blackenedhonesty #digitalpainting#digitalart #art #igersftl #artistsoninstagram #artofinstagram (at Boca Raton Innovation Campus)
