I shipped these 2 pieces off to Texas yesterday as Christmas gifts for two foster children through a secret creators gift exchange group on Facebook. The girls I was given listed their favorite colors and that they have a love for Jesus and gospel music, so this is what I came up with! I'm so happy that @rlpyroart invited me to participate in giving this year! #art #artwork #artist #artistoninstagram #paint #painting #paintersofinstagram #painter #acrylic #canvas #flowers #stars #moon #Christian #bible #bibleverse #hymn #foster #fosteringsaveslives #Christmas #giving (at Birmingham, Alabama) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5vbrPOhKoE/?igshid=1kpcjcjeywm0d

I had such a good time signing copies of this today, along with my fellow contributors! I was asked by Alabama Black Belt Adventures to illustrate and design the cover for Black Belt Bounty. I'm so happy with the way it turned out and I can't wait to do a bit of reading about the Black Belt's hunting and fishing heritage!

Last night, after freezing nearly too death (I might be a tad dramatic), @jaitken1989 and I packed up the art and got to see @warpaintwarpaintofficial 💜 So, so good! @moonstonefest was a great event and this was the perfect way to end the day! Plus, when I got home and counted my cash, I found this gem and needed to share it with others. 😂 #moonstonefest #warpaint #moonstone #bham #birmingham #alabama #birminghamalabama #music #festival #concert #indie #indierock #artist #artistofinstagram #music #rock #donaldduck (at Moonstone Fest) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4-Z3PdBNnY/?igshid=w6mkrj7kjmsm

Inktober Day 30. Catch We gladly feast on those who would subdue us, The Addams Family crest and credo. In the stills from the movie, you only see the bottom of the crest, so I made up something to top it off with. 💜 @inktober #inktober2019 #inktober #art #artist #artwork #artistsoninstagram #draw #drawing #sketch #sketching #ink #pen #pendrawing #micron #microns #illustration #illustrator #blackwork #linework #instaart #inkstagram #addamsfamily #theaddamsfamily #familycrest #Halloween #October (at Birmingham, Alabama) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4SIuTiBvK9/?igshid=up0slx2l6if8

Inktober Days 27/28. Coat/Ride I have been a Doctor Who fan for a long time now, so when the "Coat" prompt came up, it was just a matter of which Doctor do I draw? The 10th Doctor is my favorite Doctor, the one that made me fall for the series, but I felt compelled to draw the 13th. I've enjoyed what I've seen of her so far! @inktober #inktober2019 #inktober #art #artist #artwork #artistsoninstagram #draw #drawing #sketch #sketching #ink #pen #pendrawing #micron #microns #illustration #illustrator #blackwork #linework #instaart #inkstagram #doctorwho #thedoctor #tardis #jodiewhittaker (at Birmingham, Alabama) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4L_46-Ak4o/?igshid=1htfr47w0mpv1

Inktober Day 25. "Tasty" Consistently a day behind, but with good reason! Got to go see the Avett Brothers last night thanks to @sputniksavoy and his incredible generosity in taking @jaitken1989 and I as his guests. We had a wonderful time! Tonight, I'll be set up at Brennan's Irish Pub for the Misfit Masquerade from 6 PM to 2 AM. Hope to see some of you guys there! #inktober2019 #inktober #art #artist #artwork #artistsoninstagram #draw #drawing #sketch #sketching #ink #pen #pendrawing #micron #microns #illustration #illustrator #blackwork #linework #instaart #inkstagram #aliceinwonderland #drinkme #birminghamalabama #birminghamart (at Birmingham, Alabama) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4F5iXlBcqi/?igshid=p72z2zfu7e0s

@inktober Day 24. Dizzy I deal with dizziness on almost a daily basis as part of one of my chronic illnesses. Some days it's mild and I can work through it. Some days it's total vertigo and I can't even move my head. I've been going through endless appointments with different doctors to try to nail down the WHY? And fix it. But, we are still not totally sure. One thing is for certain though, the cartoon birds flying around your head, doesn't seem all that unrealistic anymore. haha 🦇😵🦇 #inktober2019 #inktober #art #artist #artwork #artistsoninstagram #draw #drawing #sketch #sketching #ink #pen #pendrawing #micron #microns #illustration #illustrator #blackwork #linework #instaart #inkstagram #dizzy #bats #chronicillness #vertigo #dysautonomia (at Birmingham, Alabama) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4BL4nwBBML/?igshid=vv2b5yfxn4ve

@inktober Day 23. Ancient The Fates, or the Moirai, in ancient Greek mythology, are three weaving goddesses who assign destinies to mortals by spinning and working the thread of life. #inktober2019 #inktober #art #artist #artwork #artistsoninstagram #draw #drawing #sketch #sketching #ink #pen #pendrawing #micron #microns #illustration #illustrator #blackwork #linework #instaart #inkstagram #thefates #fate #destiny #goddesses #mythology (at Birmingham, Alabama) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3_Q5bFBe3S/?igshid=1jld2yzqqarld
