A series of plein air paintings done at the Houston Arboretum. Each took around three hours. For the second one in this set, I used a photo I took as ref and worked a tad longer at it.

Hilarious

Painted this guy using a photograph from the newspaper as inspiration. Loved pushing the color. I was working on mixed media paper, not watercolor paper so it was interesting to see how differently the paint moved on the paper. I got harder edges than I was expecting, but I still had a fun time!

“Lady Tilda and the Dragon”

Or “Mom Knight” which is what I kept calling it for most of the time I worked on this. This was my story for Valor, a fairy tale anthology I was in last year! It’s a really great book, and I’m so glad I got to be a part of it. You can purchase a copy here.

oh my god this made me almost cry for real

[perkins-megan]

Visual storytelling doing a great job. Definitely felt tears-eyed at the plight and terror of the baby dragon.

Really cool! Great exploration of depth.

My husband gave me a tabletop press for Christmas and this is the first print that I carved. It has been a long time since I've carved a block, but I'm feeling pretty pleased with this! I used a vintage yearbook photo as inspiration. I pulled a bunch of prints and have been experimenting with adding color to the print and I'll show those soon!
