What are you working on today? 🥰

Some old figure studies… I really love the way drawing figures challenges me. It’s a little like putting together a puzzle… kinda relaxing, and each time, I feel like I grow just a little bit. I just visited a reference site for these.. there’s a few out there 😊 #draweveryday #draweverydaydraweveryway #classicalart #seetheshapes #drawingforfun #seeingtheworld #beautifulbodies #spreadlovenothate https://www.instagram.com/p/CrwhIucOUov/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Studying the intricate details of a peony, I'm reminded of the beauty and complexity that can be found in the most unexpected places… #NatureIsFullOfSurprises #flowerpower #beautyinunexpectedplaces #midwestlove #watercolorbotanicals #watercolorlessons (at Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CrMbvYpObSc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Growing up without internet or iPhones, I spent a lot of time playing outside and befriending little forest critters. Among my favorites were the stick bugs. I remember one summer day, while listening to the rain, a little stick bug came to keep me company in my tiny fort made out of old wooden pallets. I often wonder how he's doing these days. Ahhh, magical childhood memories.🌿🐛💕 #nostalgia #childhoodmemories #stickbuglove #buglife #naturebrilliance #loveofnature #itsthelittlethingsinlife (at Spencer, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cq-kKQ6uqbx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Really enjoyed 'Where the Crawdads Sing' and totally relate to Kya - finding peace in nature and expressing myself through art. Her story really hit home and inspired me to run to my easel. #WheretheCrawdadsSing #Kya #NatureArt #Inspo" https://www.instagram.com/p/Cqg82UBulZ8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Using inspiration from Willy Pogany to open my art session today. There’s something so romantic about the human figure is it’s rawest form… I love anatomy and gesture drawing so much, capturing the essence of a subject is such a holy grail of feelz 🤤 . . . #aspiringartists #arttutorials #mydreams #willypogany #cottagecoreartist #draweverywhere #darkcottagecore #draweverydamnday #simplemoments #stayathomemommylife #artistlifestyle #artistsecrets #drawfromthemasters #graphitesketch #howtodraw #fineartists #representationalrealism #classicalart (at DRAW) https://www.instagram.com/p/CqLtmrXO9XN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’ll let you in on a little secret of mine… sometimes I like charcoal even more than watercolors 🙊 . #heehee #artisthands #charcoalart #charcoalartist #howtodraw #drawingisthekey #drawingforpainting #classicalart #traditionalartists #instaartists #artistsforartists #loveforartists #tinyhouseartist #tinyhomeliving (at Freedom, Indiana) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpbADlAOkWZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Available now!! I hope you guys are ready for this series!!! This has been a long project in the making, and this preparatory painting is just the beginning to get things nice and exciting. The star painting from this series, which this this painting prepared me for, will be my finale. But I made so many of the prep paintings with such big efforts that I knew they’d have to join the collection because so much love went into them… • #princessbride #princessbridemovie #cultclassics #moviebuffs #nostalgia #nostalgicmoments #happythings #thingsthatmakemesmile #romanticvibes #cottagecorecommunity #cottagecoreart #princesscore #princesscoreaesthetic #artcollectorsofig #homestyledecor #decoratingideas #originalartworks #realisticwatercolor #watercolortutorials https://www.instagram.com/p/CparqYMu833/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
