Paintings don’t have to be big to count! 😊

I painted a little bookmark today.

I’ve been looking around for places to teach painting classes, and I have a few ideas! Someone mentioned some ideas in Winter, and on the flowage. Maybe I can find a place or two in Hayward or Spooner as well.

Either way, painting classes are going to happen soon!! I am itching to teach a watercolor workshop, and maybe there is interest for alcohol inks?

I will let you all know! Please share with local friends, and we will get some balls rolling! 💖🎨

Here is a quick video showing what I use for a watercolor palette. Look how easy it is!

Hi friends -

I want to practice this style more, so I’d like to offer these as postcard size pet portraits. They can be more realistic colors or rainbow like my Benji here. I also have new colors of ink for the detail, so hopefully the eyes won’t look so intense. 😁

Each 4x6 portrait will be an orignal artwork made just for you from your photo, and sent in a plastic sleeve to protect it. I’m charging just $15 each or 2 for $25. If you would like something larger than 4x6, feel free to reach out and we can discuss.

I can also offer painting classes for you to paint your own! It makes for a fun birthday or girls night out party!

Thanks for looking!

I just finished painting this little portrait of Benji. I love how it turned out!

I did a lot of little paintings today. A friend suggested selling these as postcards - they are postcard size after all.

What do you think?

When the world is too heavy, I try to sit down and paint.

The dragonfly was a birthday gift for a coworker.
