Last night I came across this Sendak art roll and I’m completely obsessed! I need it but it’s $120. So now I’m on a quest to make one for myself. I have most of the materials and drew up a plan.
Am I crazy or…🤷🏾♀️

The 18x22 finale is officially live! 🥂
This piece was all about trusting the layers, from tinted charcoal to wax crayons. I’m curious, what’s the largest size you’ve ever painted? Does the big paper scare you as much as it used to scare me? 😅
Catch the reveal below!

It was a gorgeous 63 degree day here in lovely Lawrence, Kansas. Went for a walk at the wetlands and captured these wonderful sky. ❤️

I’m letting go of the 'perfect painting' pressure today and just making marks. I’m testing out DIY foam stamps with watercolor (video is live now!), but I’m curious... what is your favorite 'non-art' tool to use in the studio? 🎨👇"

If you’ve been feeling a bit stuck at the blank page lately, I have something for you tomorrow. We’re letting go of the "masterpiece" pressure and just starting with some simple mark-making.
See you Tuesday at 1 PM! 🎨

Woke up to check on the 18x22 commission and... it’s finally dry! 😂
Part 1 is officially out (thanks for the love on it so far!), but now the real work begins. I’m about to start the mixed media layers for Part 2, and I'm torn on the 'vibe' for the marks.
Which direction should I take for the final details?"

It’s finally here! Part 1 of my biggest commission yet is LIVE on the channel.
I’m taking you through the 'terrifying' start of this 18x22 piece from the sketch to the massive watercolor washes. This is the foundation for the mixed media madness coming in Part 2.
Check out the video here and let me know if you think I’ve handled the scale so far.😍

Studio update: You can see the floor! Haha! I hauled out seven bags of trash and can see the end of this project. Loving my new “L shaped” desk. Might put up some shelves on the left side. So far I have only spent $15 on cubbie bins. Next to clean off my computer desk and make a video for tomorrow. I miss creating. See you all soon! 😍
