In Progress

Huge apologies for not updating in so long. Summer is always a busy time socially, and while I have been painting tons, I don't have much to show for it because I've just been painting layers to add depth to my pieces.
This is the state of my living room on nights when I have time to paint. I paint the large pieces on the floor, which means I wait until my 11-month-old goes to sleep. Those are her toys in the background.

I hope I have a bundle of new artwork to show you soon. They all seem to come into bloom at the same time.

Sketches: Shiba Puppies

(We have a shiba inu and are partial to the breed.)
Out of drawing and painting mediums, I'm the least familiar with coloured pencil. Actually, pastel. But coloured pencil is a very close second-to-last.

Coloured pencil. Moleskine 3.5x5.5 sketchbook.

Drawing: Baby

My daughter at 7 months old.

Graphite, 9x12 watercolour paper

Painting: Ronin

This was a wedding gift for one of my best friends, who had been asking me to draw or paint her something for the past 13 years.
