A Memoir Form I 4k x 4k pixels. Digital Artwork using #procreate . 2023. I've always had a passion for lyrics and letting them become a memory bank for my experiences with others. This work documents the twists, turns, upheavals, and music that surrounds a timeline of experience with an individual. #3dform #artwork #digitalart #digitalillustration #sculpture #lyrics #experience #procreateartist #digitalartist #femaleartist #arkansasartist (at Arkansas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co3aFn-tjlx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

After much consideration, I am now offering digital downloads on my website. I've spent the last three months, since this form of buying art has become popular, weighing the pros and cons. Pros for the art connoisseur: • quick access to art • more accessible price point • no cost of shipping • no waiting for shipping • ability to resize art to work best for you • can still get a beautiful print (using a good printer or printing at walgreens/walmart) Pros for me: • giving more accessible price points • no possibility of the post office loosing my art Cons for the art connoisseur: • no waiting at the mailbox with excitement • no satisfaction from unpacking Cons for me: • no quality control of prints made • lots of prayers that someone won't take the art file and sell it themselves • general anxiety of dissatisfaction with art So in conclusion: I believe this is the right choice. As I WANT everyone to be able to have art at a reasonable cost. #websiteupdate #tryingsomethingnew #digitaldownloads #digitaldownloadsforsale #digitalartwork #artforall #affordableart #buyartfromlivingartists #newartwork #femaleartist #womanartist #arkansasartist (at Little Rock, Arkansas) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnhzaa6uXdP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Say hello! to the final spicy shot of my 1st finished painting of 2023! Love it when a painting comes together (& photographs) well! So thankful for @rocktowndistill posting some amazing inspiration for my first still life painting of the year! ❓What other arkansas businesses share the oh-so-aesthetic shots?! Any businesses you want to see me paint still life's from? ••• #heysoiree #rocktowndistillery #rocktowndistill #stilllife #stilllifeart #stilllifeartists #stilllifepainting #drinks #cocktails #vodkadrinks #vodkacocktail #flavoredvodka #littlerock #littlerockarkansas #arkansas #arkansascreates #arkansasart #arkansasartist #femaleartist #womanartist (at Rock Town Distillery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnSSiCYu8Nc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

still life study // milk~weed // details(2) fighting the good fight this new year, between painterly and realistic qualities. my brain went bbbrrrrrr and I over rendered the glass in the first piece. & milk~weed has the clash of linework and paint. BUT if you half the still life, it's a keeper. #art #contemporaryart #digitalart #digitalillustration #stilllife #stilllifepainting #milkweed #lemons #paintingglass #glassware #flowerart #artistoninstagram #femaleartist #procreatedrawing #womanartist #arkansasartist (at Little Rock, Arkansas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnARFu4uopk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Digital Painting 2022

[paintingorbust]

#artvsartist #artvsartist2022 ✨ It's been a wonderful year for my art! I started the year with still life's and my first solo show.🍹 I then spent a lot of time creating in procreate. ✍🏻 I even did the entirety of Inktober for the first time ever! 🎃 I then delved into portraiture, which is something I really love even though most people don't want a portrait these days. 😂 & I ended the year with a vendor booth with Forever Thrifted Market! 🛍️ I have BIG plans for 2023 and I cant wait to share with you what I create! #endoftheyear #reflections #artsummary #procreate #procreateart #stilllifepainting #painting #acrylicpainting (at Little Rock, Arkansas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmpCa5lOjKE/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
