Darkling Studio

Mew has been a very popular demo request ._. Last day of the fair and while I'm beyond tickled about getting to sleep in tomorrow, I'm kinda bummed that it's already over. What a crazy 12 days! So thankful for everyone who stopped by to say hi and for those who have gone out of their way to keep me sane (you know who you are 💙). #art #acrylic #painting #paintingdemo #speedpainting #mew #iowastatefair #dsm #darklingstudio #illustration #pokemon (at Iowa State Fairgrounds)

Today's other little speed painting. I feel like all of the old ladies coming by to watch the acrylic painting demonstrations have been leaving quite disappointed, haha. #art #acrylic #paintingdemo #painting #speedpainting #evee #shinypokemon #pokemonart #pokemon #illustration #doodle #sketch #darklingstudio #dsm #iowastatefair (at Iowa State Fairgrounds)

One of today's little speed painting doodles. Trying to keep myself "amewsed" with all of these pokeman requests... x_x #art #acrylic #painting #mew #speedpainting #iowastatefair #paintingdemo #pokemonart #pokemon #dsm #darklingstudio #illustration (at Iowa State Fairgrounds)

One down... Trying to paint and juggle crowds is proving quite the challenge. A tremendously huge thank you @sk3tch3s (and family) and @maddyffffusco for keeping me sane, haha. 😅💜💜💜 😵 #art #acrylic #painting #mew #speedpainting #paintingdemo #pokemon #pokemonart #iowastatefair #dsm #darklingstudio #artmarathon (at Iowa State Fairgrounds)
