I love theLunar Black paint color by @danielsmithartistsmaterials! And I am still enjoying working on these small landscape paintings. I haven’t decided yet if this one will end up in a larger mixed media piece or stay as a stand alone painting.

I was trying to play with that here.

This is my pallet when I’m done with a painting. I love it that if you look closely you can see the hundreds of little marks from dipping the brush. Finished work posted soon!

When I’m in between working on groups of work I like to just create fun doodles. Playing with water soluble pencils one of my favorite kind of art supply!

The little details are my favorite part and sometimes it’s hard to show them. This is my first attempt. Work in progress, watercolor and graphite. Thanks @jodi.ohara.art for giving me the idea to use video to do it! #watercolor #worksinprogress #mixedmedia #abstract #abstractlandscape #lookingupclose

More work in progress.
I’m trying hard to stay in the discovery phase. Watercolor is remaining a (fun) mystery!
