I finally painted this little black capped chickadee featuring cranberries and whipped cream. I think maybe I was half awake when I came up with the idea? Intended to be a Christmas card but just don't have time to get them printed and sent out. #watercolor #art #birds #chickadee

Finally decorated my Christmas tree. I didn't have ornament hangers last year. I still adore these Hallmark Keepsake ornaments I got as a kid. It used to be tradition every year to go to the Hallmark store and get a new ornament for the year.

What am I doing here? I don't know but it might be a Christmas card.

I found the Digimon Milk Tea!

My car was the victim of a hit and run in the parking lot at my work. So instead of hanging out with friends in Seattle I'm eating pizza, drinking and drawing on some Halloween themed coloring pages.

P.S. this is what I'm currently working on. It looks rough now, I just hope I can pull off what I imagine it to be.

Behold. Tile samples. Ignore my little feeties.

Today I spent 3 plus hours cleaning my car inside and out. Getting better at learning some detail cleaning techniques.

Sadly found more paint scratches. I always try so hard to be respectful of other people's vehicles, so it pains me when others don't treat mine the same.

Had fun at PAX West yesterday where I did in fact get to demo Digimon Story Time Stranger! Got a nice lanyard for my trouble. Sad part is I found no other Digimon merch for sale at PAX, not even cards. So disappointed.

Haven't been posting enough art stuff lately. Been really busy as far as having time for that. I did finally just get this gorgeous little easel, however! Made of black walnut. Heavy duty hardware on it and a place to clip on a strap. Can't wait to use it!

A while back I bought a large bag of wildflower seeds mix, seeds native to my state. I threw some in my planter my daffodils were in. Two of them finally bloomed. No idea what they are but they are so pretty!

I finally got around to tending my plants on my weekend. I was never great with plants (my talents all lay in animal handling) but I'm getting better! Threw wildflower seeds in one planter and they have developed buds now. And one of my succulents flowered!

I never posted these here but I finished my Solarmon clock. Not the fanciest but a good use of craft foam. I should have added more details with marker. I could still go back and do that I suppose but I just wanted to be done with it.

So for work (I'm a manager) I like to hide Easter eggs for the crew. I missed last year as I was so burnt out but I'm back in it this year. 39 eggs full of candy, 4 super eggs and cupcakes. I just require the eggs be returned so I can re-use them (hence only 39 left).

I have allergies because they gutted the downstairs apartment (the dude that lived there sucked) and I'm sure I inhaled mold spores and a bunch of other crap. Did manage to plant some succulents though. Hope they don't die.

A lovely day out for pizza and drinks.

A painting for a coworker whose last day was today. Due to time constraints this was the only photo I got of it. Would have liked to spend more time perfecting it. But I think it's decent for the time I had.

Proof I am painting. Progress on the snake I sketched earlier this year and a new sketch I'm working on for a gift. #wip #watercolor

Some antique doggos that belonged to my great grandmother and a floating mushroom shelf.

This was a commission I did for a friend a few years ago of a violet-backed starling. This one was fun as I hadn't done a lot with pink/purple tones before.

One of my personal favorites as decided I love painting peregrine falcons. The copper metallic splatter was so gorgeous on this though I'm not sure it comes across as well in the photos. #watercolor #art #birds #peregrinefalcon

Western Screech Owl I painted for my local wildlife shelter. This one was an unreleasable education animal who had a detached retina which is why one pupil was bigger than the other.

Golden Eagle I painted for a fundraiser auction a few years ago. I so loved how the eyes turned out. #watercolor #art #birds #goldeneagle

Alright, here's another painting from a few years ago of an American Crow. I still up until this point struggled heavily painting animals with black fur or feathers. I'm still not entirely sure HOW I pulled this off. #watercolor #art #birds

It occurred to me I should post some more of my older art here for people who haven't seen it. Tonight I'll start with a Band-Tailed Pigeon. He was an education ambassador at the wildlife shelter I was at for many years. #watercolor #bandtailedpigeon #birds
