🐛 🌺 🌿 ✨ // caterpillar & poppy, prompt 3/10 for Bring on Spring!

I meant to do a master study of Eric Carle this month. Still planning on doing a proper one, but I thought I’d pay homage to his work for this prompt anyway! A bit in love with the caterpillar’s silly little face 💕

This is another piece I did for the upcoming “Game Of Shrooms”. It’s a scavenger hunt where artists from around the world hide mushroom themed original art in public spaces for ordinary people to find and claim as their own. This year’s happens on June 10th. This is all the idea of Daniel “Attaboy” Seifert. Go to https://yumfactory.com/gameofshrooms/ for more info and how to participate yourself.

I have never heard of the game of shrooms before now, but it's certainly the best game ever conceived

I love guercino's sketches so much and I want to always paint flowy flying angels.

So far so good hey? #pleinairpril number 3 - a painting from a photo I took out the train window as I rode from, I believe, Portland to Chicago, back in 2010.

That was a fateful trip for me! I got my first taste of D&D then when we got stopped for a day behind a single derailed freight car and I decided to introduce myself to some folks setting up what looked like a board game in the dining car. Turned out they were designers bringing Dark Sun to GenCon, and were excited to let me join in and see a total newb play it. And from there I was hooked!

ANYWAYS - this piece is in gouache, and captures a particular still, hot, sunny moment from what ended up being almost four days on Amtrak.

I'm trying to practice flatlays so I can take pretty instagram photos but this one just isn't doing it for me

but on the other hand, I really really like these eyes! that was the main point of me painting today

but the shadows. they need to be darker. I'll get there.
