Another O'hia Lehua inspired piece that I finally came around to painting. #watercolor #artistsoninstagram #instaart #ohialehua #mythology #waterblog #watercolorpainting #painting

Ohi'a Lehua - I was really inspired by the story of Ohi'a and Lehua. Some believe that when you pick Lehua (the flower) from the tree, rain will fall representing the separated lovers' tears. Original painting and prints will be available in my shop soon! #watercolor #hawaii #mythology #ohialehua

Acai bowls from @islandvintagecoffee and musubis from @musubi_cafe_iyasume were part of our daily routine while in Hawaii. We've been back one day and I already miss it 💕#thatlinetho #hawaiisbestfoods #honolulufood #foodart #watercolor

Finally finished this piece that was requested by @lawmoney It was pretty much done last week, but I added some more trees and little details that I almost forgot to put in (like Scizor's wings) Good thing I didn't rush to be finished with it like I normally do! 😒 #pokemonbattle #scizor #gengar #gouache #arstagram #emjidi

Day Five: Not sure what to title it.. any ideas leave a comment below! Timelapse will be posted later today! #watercolor #arstagram #emjidi #august2016challenge #flowers #bunny #zombie

Day Four: Spirit Princess. Worked a little more on the background today, since yesterday's came out terribly 😭 A little fanart of Studio Ghibli's Princess Mononoke. #studioghibli #fanart #watercolor #august2016challenge #emjidi #arstagram #princessmononoke

Day 03 inspired by the summer heatwaves we've been getting. 😭 I have a constant craving for paletas and ice cream. Watch the timelapse here

Day 02 of the August 2016 Challenge was inspired by a recent museum trip. Sadly, I did not get a picture of the ginormous walrus we saw, so I couldn’t quite capture the expression I remember him having. He was quite majestic ❤️ I obviously have little experience drawing animals and rocks. 😭 Click here to watch the timelapse! #augustchallenge2016 #watercolor #artstagram #emjidi #walrus #animals

Quick morning watercolor sketch in the new sketchbook I made over the weekend. It was a tedious process, but well worth it. You can see progress pics of it at http://www.merrymeddlings.com/2016/08/handmade-watercolor-sketchbook/ There are 25 pages and I plan to fill it up by the end of August. So I will aim for one drawing a day. #dailysketch #augustchallenge2016 #emjidi #artstagram #watercolor #bubbles

Fun little painting of the Three Little Pigs. Practicing with gouache 💕

Quick gouache painting

"Pengoalapus" Playing around with gouache again. Lawrence claims that I am part penguin, koala, and octopus - thus, pengoalapus was born.
