#my100daysofpainting

I started this one when I was working on Photosynthesis, but I never finished it. Working on it again gave me the courage to start another bigger piece. A portrait. I am putting this out there to hold myself accountable. 😂 I will start on Monday! . . . . . .#gardenspider #gardening #arachnids #spiders #spider #sunart #skyart #natureart #goldleaf #gilded #deerart #artistsoninstagram #artists #artstudio #artcollectors #the100dayproject #100dayproject #my100daysofpainting2020 #my100daysofpainting #saicalumni #saic https://www.instagram.com/p/B_bSttLn_2i/?igshid=2h77ho3kq56m

Green Cicada for 2020. Day ?/100. I’m confused. I have been painting every day, but I was interrupted by a commission that I won’t be able to share for a bit, and I am still working on the Luna moth. They always take me a long time to finish, so what can you do. Honestly, this 100 day project is just keeping me working and that makes me happy. If I wasn’t doing it, I don’t know if I would choose to paint right now. Sometimes life is so tumultuous, you need the push. The project is my push right now. 💚 . . . . . #the100dayproject #100dayproject #painting #goldart #my100daysofpainting #my100daysofpainting2020 #alexakarabin #naturelovers #cicada #cicadaart #insectart #cicadaemergence #transition #insect #greencicada #aceo https://www.instagram.com/p/B_1J8tWnpeF/?igshid=1w7g4o5r47nhh

Look at these perfect little frames I found for the little ones! There are separators in there, so the textured surface of the painting isn’t touching the glass. These will be listed on my website on Friday at 7:00pm EDT. . . . . . . #artistsoninstagram #artistsontumblr #the100dayproject #my100daysofpainting #my100daysofpainting2020 #100dayproject #artwork #salamander #portraitart #kalamazoo #aceo #tinypainting #smallart #goldleaf #mixedmedia https://www.instagram.com/p/B--4vpjnjWW/?igshid=vokk08a3srk2
