I am doing small paintings right now 12x12). Still re-familiarizing with oils. This is done from a snapshot of me when I was 4 o 5. There are very few pics of me as a child. I want to hug this little me and tell her “you’re gonna be fine” #oilpainting #selfportrait #artists #portraits

I recently dove back into oil painting and it had been a while. This is a little 8x10 based on a Victorian reference. I love relics, artifacts and old statues.

Getting ready to do more of these. These fired a tinny bit wonky but I know how to remedy issues on my next go. I love hand illustrating on clay.

I sculpted “Cry Me a River” in July 2024, as I remembered my very marginalized trans friend, who died from overdose. To all my LGTBQ friends: you valid parts of our world. 💕🌈🙏
