“I Want Blessings” ... I’ve been painting these clover flowers for @lightgreyartlab’s Small Art for a Big Cause show that’s coming up soon. They will be selling framed prints and a portion of the gallery’s proceeds will go to a charity of choice. I’ve opted all the proceeds that I would get as an artist to be put into charity as well. In particular the American Red Cross California Wildfire Relief. ... This piece has been very frustrating. Even though it’s seemingly simple. Sometimes, that’s just the way it is and all you can do it push forwards and learn. I’ve been listening to old timey holiday music (Eartha Kitt’s Santa Baby is my favorite!), hugging all the hot water bottles I own, and guzzling down tea pot after tea pot as an attempt to keep warm and motivated when all else seems gloomy!
