#prideportrait

“One of my mantras is, 'Embrace what makes you unique, even if it makes others uncomfortable.' I keep that with me in my back pocket. Shoot, I keep it in my front pocket! I keep it in my hair.”

Illustration process of Liam; “Some days, I feel pretty darn good about the weird body I’m in; this was one of those days. ✨

Pride week is fast approaching. As many people know this movement is close to my heart and #prideportraits is one of the ways I have been able to express my love and support for the #lgbtq community. I painted Canada's #primeminister #justintrudeau because I both appreciate and admire the work he is doing to create #equality for all #canadians. How will you show your support Calgary???? #artbydragonfly #canadianartist #canadianart #albertaarts #calgaryartscene #prideportrait #love #painting #portrait #professionalartist #proartists #canadianpride #prideweek #lgbt #pride #yycpainting #yycartist #canadianpainter

Made my first #prideportrait that is also a #petportrait. This is "Kid" Ellen DeGeneres' dog. I hope that WHEN she invites me on her show after I send her the pride portraits I made of her and Portia.... this will be an extra suprise I want to gift her. Keep your fingers crossed for me! #cuterthankidchallenge #artbydragonfly #petportraits #acrylic #painting #lgbtq #lgbt #pride #dogs #doglover #ellen #ellendegeneres #portiaderossi #portia #theellenshow #yycpainting #yycartscene #calgaryartscene #canadianpride #canadianartist #canadianart #albertaarts
