#Pantone colour of the year 2022 has been announced! It’s name is “Very Peri”. 💜 “Displaying a carefree confidence and a daring curiosity that animates our creative spirit, inquisitive and intriguing PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri helps us to embrace this altered landscape of possibilities, opening us up to a new vision as we rewrite our lives.” I’m a fan. #veryperi #pantone #pantonecoloroftheyear #coloroftheyear2022 https://www.instagram.com/jazhiggins/p/CXSUDocva-b/?utm_medium=tumblr

I set myself the task today to paint a monochrome sugar skull girl on this 8x8” canvas. Lots of other little distractions popped up during the day and I haven’t finished her yet, but I promised myself I’d go to bed before midnight and it’s 11:55, so I shall pop her here on the shelf until tomorrow. 😴 . #goodnight #art #artist #artstudio #brisbaneart #brisbanecreatives #redlandscoast #bigeyeart #popsurreal #popsurrealism #popart #sugarskull #monochrome #blackandwhite #artwork #paintingprocess #wip #workinprogress #cuteart #kitsch #homedecor #wahm #artistmum #bigeyes #illustrationartists #paintingoftheday (at Brisbane, Queensland, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/COxoVOntK3V/?igshid=13x376qpvf5er

🎃HAPPY HALLOWEEN my loves!🎃 This year I dreamt of having a big party out the front of my house, but - it’s 2020, and I’ve learned not to plan too far ahead, which is just as well because I’ve been a little under the weather this week...and as for the actual weather - well - thunderstorms and possible hail predicted today! ⛈ It’s shaping up to be a different Halloween this time, but stormy weather, fun sized chocolates and spooky movies sounds pretty good to me! 🎃🍭🍬 What’s different for you this Halloween? {The photos above are of a finished #diamondartkit of my “Halloween Magic” painting! Made with 100s of tiny rhinestones! I only have a couple of these kits left in my shop.} (at Brisbane, Queensland, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG_uij3AQWA/?igshid=1kydbain8craz
