I'm an oil painter/illustrator/cat mom living in Seattle. I am in love with oil painting, but I also dabble in drawing, watercolor, colored pencil, and always looking to learn new mediums! I post my painting and illustration time lapses, art tutorials for beginners (including oil painting techniques, drawing techniques, and art career advice), and various artist studio vlogs for your enjoyment. ❤️

For even more comprehensive tutorials such as (how to paint skin tones, how to paint backgrounds, how to paint hair) free prints, live streams, and daily artworks in progress, please check out my Patreon page! Thank you!

For the longest time, your videos weren't showing up in my feed, so I decided to revisit your site and watch your videos. I have missed your wisdom and journey as I am taking a long break from oil painting but I am itching to return thanks to your content. :)

Your painting of this older person was build up with a lot of experiance realism and love . Details give him a certain lifestyle and history and also you can see an impression in his eyes. Well done. I can see the same result like our flemish painters have shown in their works. Greatings from a painter.

This is such a beautiful painting, I can’t believe it took you such a short amount of time to create it 😮

[oogalaboo]

Beeyooootiful. There is so much beauty in his face.

[ambubb]

watching you paint is just always so fascinating 🥰

[herbsandflowers]

Wow I’m so impressed. I used to follow you some years ago but lost interest because i thought it’s always the same girl … but seeing you branch off and paint so beautifully different things. Really cool love it

[jessicaangelesart]

Oh wow what an amazing painting! I can see you've improved so much! So happy for you ❤ How I wish I could paint from life as well 💕

Kind of a random take on this, but here is man who might not get a second look while going about his life. But here we see the beauty in his wrinkles, white hair and balding head. His expression is what tells a story and gives interest.

Crazy part is it works for anyone in real time. Our expression and story is what makes us “awe inspiring”, it’s not, and never has been, solely about looks🤍

[KraftyKim]

I love all your work I have a question I’m feelin frustrated I paint and it looks cartoony. Is that normal is due to not over layering . Is it normal or am I in

[sandraneusch]

I recognize this man from my atelier days 💙

[RallyTheTally]

He does seem like a intresting man to paint, ever talked to him personally One on One?
