Direct #oilpainting “Little Man Ice Cream”

More work to be done on the drawing part of this painting. Colors are more saturated than they appear in the photos. Overall, I’m pleased with the composition and how much I accomplished in one session.

The first misconception when learning to draw is thinking we need to learn the symbols to see the world— when actually, we need to see the world to draw the symbols.

Happy birthday to Bsky being public and my Welcome to Bluesky comic getting released!!

It’s been lovely meeting so many amazing people here. Here’s to another year 💙
To mark the occasion, we teamed up with @davis.social to create a comic illustrating what Bluesky is all about.

See if you can spot the easter eggs! 👀

A study of 526 long COVID patients found 72% had chronic autonomic dysfunction, lasting 3+ years.

One in three developed POTS, mostly women and those with joint hypermobility.

Many couldn’t work due to symptoms.

Put another layer on this painting on Sunday! “Color first, detail second” is a really fun way to paint.

Watching Pantheon (on netflix) with my wife and we are both so impressed with the animation and art. As far as I can tell, every shot keeps the same artboard size, and they are all hand drawn. Lends a great quality where the rendering simplifies as it fades into the distance. Love it.

I’m in the bad place right now (but also with writing?!).

Trust the process. Keep going.

Any artist learning to draw faces should check out Stephen Bauman!

Incredible knowledge in his Youtube videos, published book, and Patreon. I own his book and it's one of my favorite art resources. This video is a great one: youtu.be/AIBcMQqCLQw?...
