It's common to feel a sadness when you are taming your ego, almost as if you are saying goodbye to an old friend, but the rewards that come with balancing your physical life with a strengthened spirit are totally worth it! Let's see what the spirits have to say about it! youtu.be/4pVQ3oY-zck

I have a great one for #divide #februARTy this morning! Meet "Angie & Lucie" and "Angie & Lucie II" I did these about 8-10 years apart. Approx. 2 1/2-3 feet per canvas=pretty big installations. I love this concept so much, I imagine I'll do another one before I die, lol. #acrylicpainter #airbrush

A woman dressed as an angel playing tug of war with another woman dressed as a devil, both women on their own separate canvases. The angel named Angie has an owl at her feet. The devil named Lucie has a tarantula at her feet.

A woman dressed as an angel playing tug of war with another woman dressed as a devil, both women on their own separate canvases. There are clouds behind the angel and flames of fire behind the devil.

I couldn't think of anything for today's #februarty #fishyfeb #fishyfeb2025 theme of #deepsea until I read the "old or new" part and remembered a super old piece I did about ohhhhh...maybe 18 years ago? "Mermaids" Acrylic & Airbrush. I painted really big back then, so it's at least 3 ft or so.

3 purplish-gray mermaids with black hair swimming through a field of pretty corals with a few colorful fish darting about.

I just read a story about Sun Pu-erh, a Taoist sage who purposefully made herself ugly and acted insane so people would leave her alone and let her pursue her spiritual goals, and I have never resonated more with anyone in my life

Today I'll share one of my most well-known and iconic pieces. "Philly Princess" (very large-3-ft-ish) oil on canvas from 2013-ish. I have some pride in this piece. It took a full month to paint the dress! #artyear #februARTy #turquoise

Young girl in a giant ball gown of green, turquoise, dark blue and light blue ruffles, sitting on a city curb, smoking a cigarette, with dirty bare feet and a look of exhausted disinterest in her eyes. The background is shades of gray including parts of a concrete wall she leans against and a tangled mess of power poles and power lines like you would see at a train station in a dirty part of Philadelphia.

Don't have much in the line of #glasses, but how about this self portrait from last summer? #februarty #oilpainting #blueskyart

So #rough can mean a lot of things to a lot of people. I'm an emotionally sensitive person, so it's the first thing I went to. This is a VERY old piece, about 2011 or so, when I was learning airbrush. "Where To Go" acrylic on canvas. #februARTy #sensoryart

Acrylic airbrushed painting of a very upset, angry and screaming child holding out her hand in the foreground. In the palm of the hand is a tiny, old wooden door that is cracked open with bright yellow light peeking out.

I've struggled all day with the #FebruARTy prompt today. It's a challenge! #bigandsmall #big&small So, I finally settled on one of my wildflower paintings of Queen Anne's Lace. When you really spend some time looking at it, it's like hundreds of tiny flowers inside bigger organized flowers!

3 blossoming flower heads in different angles of white Queen Anne's Lace.
