Well my desk is set up and somewhat organized at the house! I need to go through my notes and figure out what I missed because of the studio break in. 🤦🏼‍♀️

This morning's painting is an abstract landscape. I had so much fun painting this. I found on Patreon and have been enjoying his tutorials. He's quite good at all the things I love about watercolour... Mixing the chaos and control. I love that we are all drawn to different mediums and styles of art. His large pieces are just dreamy and I cannot wait to do a full sheet piece. Some big hake brushes are on their way. 🖌️🎨

Pretty sure I forgot to share this house portrait! Ive been taking a break from commissions to focus on landscapes but I miss the detail work.

I will be opening up two commission spots for March. 5 x 7 is $75 and 8 x 10 $100.

Working with a three colour palette and a little bit of gold. 💛

I will be teaching a class next month at in YYC. If you're interested in joining me send me a message and I'll pass on the Eventbrite link as soon as it's live. 🎨

I'm not holding it up in the right spot but you get the idea! It was a gorgeous morning in Rosebud. I had a great stay and it's so important to support a place like this. So much love and care so that we can come and rest. ♥️

My wrist feels okay after some quick landscapes so I think I'll head to the studio this week to see how I do with some more detailed work... Much more on the illustration side.

With school starting I'm excited to get back to routine. Anyone else ready for Autumn?! 🍁🍂

I injured my right wrist over a week ago and have been trying to rest it up. The doctor thinks that I strained a tendon but we will doing an ultrasound to rule out anything worse. Anyways... I'm super annoyed about it.

painting is manageable but not super comfortable. This commission will be done this one today but my summer art plans will be loose landscapes I think.

A quick quarter sheet landscape this morning. I feel like I have to take advantage of any time I feel like painting blue skies. 💙

Next up I have a cabin commission and a map project. 🗺️

Lake vibes this morning! 💙 my family came here every year when I was a kid. Fun fact... I actually met my husband here, my mom met my dad here and I'm pretty sure my grandma and grandpa met here too.

I will likely redo this as there is a bloom I don't like but it was still a nice way to start a Monday.

Hope you all have a wonderful week.

I picked up a bike for my daughter in Water Valley last week and the clouds were just amazing. It was a gorgeous day for a drive!

I enjoyed working on this painting and was able to work with my new brushes and utilize some new techniques.

Happy Monday!

Taking a class from and this is my first try following along... I'm not quite done but I'm relatively happy with it considering I had Ace with me at the studio. I need to pick up a smaller mop, some colbalt blue and a plant mister. Excited for my second try! Loving this style and learning some new techniques. 🎨

New stuff day! Thanks ... You guys are so friendly. I'm so excited for my new brushes and I'm pretty happy to get white nights locally. ♥️

I'm in the middle of reading Atomic Habits by James Clear and there is a story he shares about quantity and quality. A photography professor split his class into two groups and was surprised to find that the group focusing on quantity produced the better work.

We can get totally caught up in perfection. Doing these little postcard paintings are so fast and fun. They aren't perfect at all but I get a bit better every time. 🎨

If you ever see one you love DM me! I'm an artist... Of course it's for sale.

Some fun clouds from a painting I started this morning. ☁️

I've been feeling more drawn to landscapes and am hoping to do more plein air painting this year. 🏞️🎨
