A #sketch of the youngest nugget. They grow up so fast.

#sketchbook #drawing
A young boy with long hair gazes off in the distance with a small smile. Little details include his hair being tucked behind one ear and in a pony tail that's somewhat falling out, and one of his adult teeth is in the early stages of growing in.

A young red-haired witch in a warm yet muted palette holds her familiar, a small snake, up to her face affectionately.

Done! #Poem is Thou Gloomy December, by Robert Burns. Decorated with green and gold #watercolors.
A poem, Thou Gloomy December by Robert Burns decorated with watercolor vines and gold leaves. Thou Gloomy December, by Robert Burns Ance mair I hail thee, thou gloomy December! Ance mair I hail thee wi' sorrow and care; Sad was the parting thou makes me remember- Parting wi' Nancy, oh, ne'er to meet mair! Fond lovers' parting is sweet, painful pleasure, Hope beaming mild on the soft parting hour; But the dire feeling, O farewell for ever! Is anguish unmingled, and agony pure! Wild as the winter now tearing the forest, Till the last leaf o' the summer is flown; Such is the tempest has shaken my bosom, Till my last hope and last comfort is gone. Still as I hail thee, thou gloomy December, Still shall I hail thee wi' sorrow and care; For sad was the parting thou makes me remember, Parting wi' Nancy, oh, ne'er to meet mair

A master copy with some alterations, this piece captures a moment forever frozen in time - a bouquet of delicate flowers, from a completely different century. It's a reminder that though impermanent, the beauty of a moment can live on through the acts of others.
#Art #DigitalPainting #Flowers
a digital painting of a large bouquet of flowers in warm sepia tones punctuated by almost-glowing white flowers. The piece is in equal parts dramatic and mysterious, warm and inviting, and reminiscing on something that once was and only lives on in memory.

I love that take - wish I saw this before trying out my little experiment, but I saw it as an opportunity to try something new. Here's where this piece is at now! Probably an experiment I'll try again with more intention, next time.

What d'you think - finish it? Start over?

#Oops #watercolor #qotd #quoteoftheday
"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom." Quote by Anaïs Nin. Written delicately in deep blue watercolor, with shimmering gold swirls around it. There is a blue splotch where a drop of water fell from my brush to the paper.

A gentle reminder to take care of yourself. When all else fails... just breathe.

#watercolor #painting #selfcare
"Breathe" is written in cursive, in iridescent gold paint. Surrounding it are twisting vines and small leaves in different shades of blue.

coloring page of a bald eagle landing on a perch. Its wings are unfurled, and beak is open as it cries out. A coloring page of a waterfall crashing into a river that's broken up by many rocks and boulders. A coloring page of a waterfall broken up into four distinct streams of water, falling into a pond that has a cairn built in the foreground.

Near the summit of a #NewHampshire #mountain that's near and dear to my heart, Mount Chocorua. An #oilpainting that I finished the day my grandma passed.
