Taking a break to focus on what I love to do and adding time limits for when I come back. I’ll be receiving my dopamine from healthy resources 😃 I’ll be learning, reading, painting, drawing, writing, meditating, taking long walks, exercising and chilling with my kitty 🐱 and whoever would like to join me 😉 I’ve set some goals for myself and until those are complete; I’ll be on a hiatus. People can still reach me through text and over the phone 🙂 I have done this before and I felt great after! Join me! 😁

Working on this portrait drawing of @legitalien on grey paper. I’ll be adding highlights very soon and they should make it really pop!

The turquoise and pink are looking like an incredible combo! A colour study with a bit of attitude!

Working on my David Lynch painting 🧐I added some fluorescent colour in the background and key areas in the face 🎨I’m now starting to glaze to bring it even more depth. I’m loving my colour palette for this piece. 👨‍🎨

I’m not sure if this drawing is complete lol
I kind of like it the way it is 🙃
I will call it done! Available for purchase! Message me if you are interested!

She looks better with eyes. Progress pic of my painting.

First time I’ve picked up a brush in months. I should have this piece completed by Monday :)

I can’t find the right words 😞 I received extremely sad news. Sarah Clarke, my lifelong incredible friend, muse, and high school sweetheart has passed away. We were always there for each other, no matter the circumstance and now … she’s not here. She was an incredibly intelligent, kind, and beautiful human being inside and out. Sarah was the definition of character. Her selflessness towards her friends was undeniable, and I’m sure they will never forget the impact that she had on so many people. I’m incredibly sad. I miss her and I truly hope she is resting peacefully, and in the best possible place. My heart and my condolences go out to her daughter Trinity, Sarah’s family, and all of her friends.
