These four lil paintings are somehow some of my favorites I’ve ever done. These were made back in 2017 and were made on a rather good day- I still remember what happened that day even though I can barely remember what happened last week. I tried to go for a more impressionistic look, this was during my Monet face, and I think some captured it more than others. All four of these unique and are appreciated for different reasons. The first one has more vague brushstrokes with the colors giving suggestion of form. The second one has a wide range of colors that show the vivacity of that moment. The third has bright uses of green, my favorite color, with a bustling river flowing through, giving action and life to the painting. The last one has bold color contrast, with the foreground bearing warm trees and the background hosting the dark and cold mountains. Nature paintings are truly one of my favorite topics to paint and I’ve found myself in a niche of painting wilderness scenes. I would’ve thrived in the Plein Air era of art.

Trying to get back in the hang of using a tablet, it’s been ages.

After almost 6 months without it, I fixed* my computer and upgraded** to windows 10. It took me ages to get my tablet to work again and by the time it was working i was to exhausted to do any real concepty arty shizzle whiz***.

I’m rusty as balls.

*: Not so much fixed as just not broken, **: I am yet to feel like 10 is an upgrade, I have had issues with every program and driver I’ve used thus far. ***: A very technical term.
