Up at 5:30am this time. Is it that five planets are in retrograde? Haha. Been painting, glueing and hammering a huge piece on paper 5ft 5" x 4ft to a large oak frame and structure I designed with an awesome guy at Anawalt lumber (love that place) to keep it safe without glass or plexi for an Art Show/ Book release on May 14th! So much glue, nails, paint and fabulous arty mess I had to strip down to my undies to keep from staining my clothes. Sometimes you gotta be risqué to peak people's interest in art. Haha 🙃✨🖌💗 #artshow #artistslife #artistatwork #love #artgallery #artbymaycharters #maycharters #painting #framing #artoftheday 💗🖌✨

Work in progress watercolor study for a bigger piece I will do for an upcoming art show. The fabulously handsome @mrrutherford9 Eric you have always had the best hair, the warmest heart and soul I have ever had the privilege to know, to act opposite and paint your portrait many moons ago. Now for a new one ;) #portrait #portraitpainting #watercolor #wip #art #artshow #goforit #artbymaycharters #artist #arte #ericrutherford #watercolour #artwork #painting #painter #maycharters 🖌💙

The sun hit the Red Rock Mountains perfectly this morning from my hotel view. I zoomed in closer though training my eye to the mountains past most of the empty Vegas sprawl that will soon be filled with new hotels and malls and strip clubs and swingers clubs nestled next to thai restaurants and casinos. Ah Vegas. #landscape #watercolor #love #painting #watercolour #landscape_lovers #art #artwork #newwork #artforsale #ontheroad #worktrip #roadtrip #artistlife #artiste ❤️ #artbymaycharters #followmyart 🎨

Removed the turquoise rubber gum to protect the white parts of the painting. Soon I'll add ink designs once I finish with the colors.
