Working on a concept for the #hardcoverartbook #hardcovercontest Here’s my idea of a sexy but SFW bunny depicted interacting with the #hardcover art book. Just need to keep pushing and finish this out for submission prior to the 29th. Any feedback so far? #digitalart #wip #procreate #pinup #sketch https://www.instagram.com/p/BwQkluCAzbG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=sepaepg9m6om

I did a thing! Doing the paint and sip recently was the final push to make me want to physically paint. So, here's my second ever acrylic painting!

I'm doing my first Throwback Thursday! (Look at me all hip and with it.) I found this saved today. This was mspaint back in 2009. One is my first digital pieces of artwork. #tbt #digitalart #mspaint #bw #eyes https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvk0FCngVPQ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1etkydkdx7r7c

So, finally giving this whole “base colors with shadow and highlight layers on top” thing a try. Interesting. More investigation require. 30min in Procreate. #digitalart #ipadart #procreate #artpractice #tryingnewthings https://www.instagram.com/p/Bva2o9Hgk2T/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5bfxpm9tt7pi

When your workday consists of coffee and 2.5 hours of painting at the Arts and Crafts center, it's a pretty good day. #hickamartsandcrafts #paintandsip #acrylic #painting #beach #vwbeetle https://www.instagram.com/p/BvVDuzyA59i/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1gut1wp545i6f

Been MIA for a bit, and will continue to be for a while. In the middle of a military move, a few days from leaving this duty station for my next assignment. Did take the chance this evening to play around with this piece some more. Vastly prefer the greater contrast and stronger silhouette. What do you think? #art #ipadart #digitalpainting #procreate #wip #dark #chains https://www.instagram.com/p/BtPZmjTgAEV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6h4jl2m7g410

Calling it done to keep from overworking it. Likeness isn’t as good as I’d like, but here’s my portrait of @katebeckinsale What do you think? #digitalart #digitalpainting #ipadart #procreate #portrait #portraitpainting #katebeckinsale #blackandwhite #art #artistsoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BswhMuXgOZz/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1q12jnasd776v

Another hour on top of yesterday’s half hour. Oh, how much longer goes into details and refinement. Still a ways to go yet. Can you at least start to tell which celebrity this portrait study is? #digitalart #ipadart #digitalpainting #procreate #portrait #portraitdrawing #wip #artwip #blackandwhite #artstudy https://www.instagram.com/p/BsuCTiCnadF/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1539gprqq5oyh

54 minute study in Procreate. Working on figuring out my method on these paintings. Not sure if the warning was really necessary, but figured better safe than sorry. Overkill or no? #art #digitalart #digitalpainting #procreate #ipadpro #figurestudy #figurativeart #figurativepainting #nudeart https://www.instagram.com/p/BrMQLc9A8wO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=7enznuihnvnp

54 minute study in Procreate. Trying to figure out a good workflow. The warning might not have been necessary, but I know I have followers who might not care for nudity, so it seemed better safe than sorry. Let me know if you think otherwise. #digitalart #digitalpainting #ipadart #procreate #procreateapp #figuredrawing #figurepainting #nudeart #figurestudy #figurativeart #figurativepainting https://www.instagram.com/p/BrMPlcAA3XE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19otpv56z11e3
