Painting in the middle of nowhere redwoods California area. Good times. High Priestess tarot rough draftish #tarot #art #gouache #skoolielife #buslife #californiaadventure #skoolie #busconversion (at Crescent City, California)

Painting weird shit with gouache, which isn't my forte, hence why I'm practicing. The bus is getting its new engine this week, hopefully this third one works.. cross your fingers!! In the meantime, I guess I'll keep playing with my sketchbook. #gouache #gouachepainting #skoolie #buslife #busconversion #bangsforeveryone #suckonthis

We've been working pretty hard on this things for the past few weeks and although it will never be "done" in my eyes, there's a definite light at the end of the tunnel. Ivan and my father finished my wiring job yesterday and we are now extension cord free!!!! My list keeps getting shorter and I'm fucking excited. In other news... we are having to replace the head gaskets... which is a nightmare. #housewithwheelswithproblems #buslife #skoolie #skoolieconversion #skoolielife #busconversion

Putting up the walls. Definitely not perfect. There are probably no perfect cuts or angles so far. I dont really care. I know more about carpentry/electrical/plumbing than i did last month. I'm more proud of that than I am about perfection. So if you were planning on doing something stupid like this and are being held back by fear or lack of knowledge.. fuck that. I sound like some sort of inspirational speaker.. Do the thing. Seacrest out.

Priming the wood stove. #busliving #skoolieconversion #skoolie #buslife this is a kni-co packer stove, recommended by @buslifeadventure 's blog

Officially putting the flooring down... I can't even begin to tell you how frustrating this is.. Laminate and all the weird little cuts and wheel wells and angles.. Ivan probably wanted to strangle me for how much I yelled at pieces of fake wood...😅 #busliving #skoolieconversion #skoolie #buslife #workbeforework

Working on my phish'ness. Still have a few more hours to go. Acrylic on gallery canvas. Painted at the pre-phish party and on the lot in Austin, too late and excited to paint in Grand Prairie (except in the car on the way there).. Still feeling the post show glows. #phish #phish2015 #phishaustin #phishdallas #phishgrandprairie

Played with the background on this one.

Post Christmas and 7 hour drive bus mess.. aaaaahhhhh! It only takes 10 minutes to clean this place so it's not so bad but it takes 2 minutes to make it look like a tornado went through here.. solar panels going up today and the overhead cabinets... hopefully a tour is coming soon. #buslife #skoolie #skoolieconversion #busconversion #skoolielife (at Elysian Fields, Texas)

Tending to our baby bus jungle before our big journey. Just have to get our tires balanced and our brakes replaced and and we're off!! #busconversion #buslife #skoolielife #skoolie #skoolieconversion #skooliesexual

One thing that I couldn't omit, even though the bus is two windows bigger than a shortie bus is a #workspace every box and shelf and countertop is #handmade by me. It's barely enough room for a laptop and wrists but if I'm anywhere it's here. Of all the things I gave up/away it was NOT art supplies 😔My goal at this point is to change my texas scenery to Oregon scenery asap. We are awaiting a (3rd) new engine/install hopefully within the next week. Considering there was a point a week or two ago where I was like "fuck this! I'm selling it and buying a crap rv" I'm consoling myself in my corner and I will continue to wait. Sorry for the novel.

Sunrise in Grants New Mexico. We drove 10 hours yesterday. About to hit the road again.. we move incredibly slow, but we haven't been honked at or flipped off yet. We've slept in Flying J and Walmart parking lots and last night we stayed at a KOA. It was nice not to wake up every hour thinking that every noise was someone breaking in or stealing the shit off our hitch cargo carrier. I'm sure I'll get over it but probably not until we get where we are going. Oh yeah, we are moving to Oregon. Bye Texas. We can no longer live in your sauna, but I love you anyway. #buslife #busconversion #skoolielife #skoolie #missyouatx (at Grants KOA)

We're crawling around the redwoods. #buslife #busconversion #skoolie #skoolielife #redwoods #californiaadventure (at Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park)

We got a bus. Big changes ahead.
