Hey guys, fantastic news! I've been asked to participate in Raw Artist's Boston showcase this year! I'm one of a handful of artists picked for the event, and I'm sure it's going to be rad! There will be fashion, makeup, music, and my artwork will be on display throughout the night! It's at The Estate in Boston, which is BEAUTIFUL, so I'm getting really excited!

Settle Down mini painting
New mini painting entitled "Settle Down" available in my Etsy shop. Inspired by my new most favoritest song by Kimbra.
My friend Veronica was also inspired by her - you should check out her amazing blog post here! One of the girls in the music video influenced her Frankenstein graphic novel. She's someone you wouldn't want to miss following!
Oh and also the entire background of this painting is covered in glitter. IDGAF.

Puppy painting!
I was asked by a friend's friend to make a painting of their parents' dog for Christmas. I used to do pet portraits all the time in high school (random, I know), so it was fun to do one after so long. I understand how important animals are as family members are, I've even painted one of my own kitty Gogo! (see : Gogo Fluff Deity)
His name is Beary! :)
Enjoy!

Pig on the Wing sneak peaks!




Just a couple of preview pics of my new painting. 18" x 24" acryla gouache on cradled clayboard. I'm hoping to finish it before the weekend's over so I can start a couple more pieces!

Pig on the Wing sketch

Here's the sketch for something that's been floating around in my head for some time. I've been listening to A LOT of Pink Floyd (as in every day for a month, including right this moment). The album "Animals" has been the favorite of our household, and these lines are really special to me:
You know that I care for you
And I know that you care for me, too
So I don't feel alone,
Or the weight of the stone
Now that I've found somewhere safe to bury my bone
And any fool knows a dog needs a home
A shelter from pigs on the wing
-Pink Floyd - Pigs on the Wing Pt. 2
So I wanted to create my own pig with wings, tweaked a bit for my own aesthetic. The eyes will be opal. The wings will be hypercolorful. And I want to make this one BIG! No wimpy little panel for this pretty piggy.
Happy Holidays if I don't post again before Christmas, guys! Take care, and thank you again for checking up on me. :)
