Blue!

Knife painting with acrylic on a 4" by 12" wrapped canvas. I started with blue and white to show my student how to work with a knife. 


After my student left, there were some extra colors left over on the palette, so I used a knife to create some interest and texture.

Doodling giraffes

A trip to the zoo meant coming home and drawing animals! Helping kiddo understand how to draw giraffes. We talked about front and back(hidden features, shorter back legs), overlaps and sizes.

Below is what she made!

Starting anew!

Restarting my art everyday resolution! Let's see how far I go this time :)
I have spent the past two years working with cake art or paper art but haven't logged much. Here's to a new start!

This super quick artwork is made using the app "Drawerings". Very basic interface but one can create stunning results! I drew a few lines randomly and then through the setting, changed the mirror count. Its amazing to see how the same picture responds to additions of mirrors.
