A turtle I saw in a park called "Jardín Botanico" it kinda looks like it's stretching haha, I like the water reflecting the green of the trees.

(Tetragonisca angustula)
Commonly known as "Chumelo" in El Salvador, this cute sting-less bees produce a special kind of honey that is used for medicinal purposes or like regular honey.

I was surrounded by them but I felt quite comfortable.

A character from the anime Re zero called Emilia is with an alternative witch like outfit on the snow, she's looking at a small creature I call baby snow Puck.

Todays brushwork practice using cherry apples, over time I started to understand why painters use fruits so often haha.

I wanted to practice a high key painting but I think I need to push the values even more, grouping some of them more, but I like how it looks and I can try again, drawing Emilia OuO.

Some "green roofs" I found on a place called Cinquera, this is not part of a progressive project, but a natural occurrence and a tradition followed by the local, it helps to cool down the houses and it looks good.

A photo I took at "Paque libertad" in El Salvador, it looked so comfy and I liked it warm colors.

I love your take on the fire flower, I think it was inspired on these flowers.

Discord asking me if I agree or agree with its new TOS, so many options I wonder what I'll do.

This spider is known as "Araña cangrejo" (crab spider), where I live, but I don´t know the scientific name, I love that it moves like a crab and it's found near water, I took a photo of this one in my bathroom.

I wanted a file manager a little bit more advance than Nemo on Linux so I found Dolphin and I like the preview panel with file info on the side, I'd definitely recommend it.

Now that I'm trying again to only use Linux I found this way to install Davinci Resolve, I hope it works.

I wonder how can I sell prints internationally from El Salvador, I tried Whitewall but they only accept people from a small list of countries and the same happens with a lot of sites I've visited. the art market is much smaller when you live in a poor country.
