Deck View

2023 03 19-21 day 269-271 of doing art every day for a year (mostly – I took sick days off).  

I loosely followed another Tatyworks video. I, of course, went a bit rogue. In particular, including a couple of Ogopogo.

Rose-Ringed Parakeet

2023 03 10-11, 18 day 266-268 of doing art every day for a year (mostly – I took sick days off).  Seven day gap in there – I was sick. Again. Because this is apparently how I roll now.

Today, I’m painting a rose-ringed parakeet. This species of parakeet is common in Sri Lanka. In fact, in one house we lived in, we had a neighborhood pack of these parakeets numbering at least 50. They loved the orchid tree we had in front of our house. They loved hanging around on the banana plants and the dead tree in the next door lot, too. I loved watching them and hearing them chatter.

King Fisher

2023-03-09 day 265 of doing art every day for a year (mostly – I took sick days off). 

I decided that today, I would do my own thing while applying the lessons from yesterday’s tutorial. Today’s subject is a king fisher. This bird was a frequent visitor to our house in Sri Lanka, so I feel a bit of affinity for the bird.

I didn’t do things exactly the same as yesterday’s digital painting, of course. Nevertheless, it is done and I’m quite happy with the results.

Parrot

2023-03-07/08 day 263/264 of doing art every day for a year (mostly – I took sick days off).

This is a watercolor tutorial by Joel Create. I like learning different techniques and styles, and I want to learn better watercolor techniques, so this was perfect.

I had fun! I want to become better at digital watercolour anyway, and Joel’s tutorials are always good. I loved painting this bird and I’m happy with the result.

Desert Sunset

2023 03 05/06 day 261/262 of doing art every day for a year (mostly – I took sick days off).

Today is a migraine day along with tonnes of joint pain, especially in my fingers and left arm. Did I sleep wrong? Is it just that kind of day? Yeah, I dunno. It is what it is. At least the migraine isn’t that bad compared to my teenage years migraines.

This piece just did not work for me, though. I can’t get it right. So I’m taking a break and will finish another day. I’ll do another post when it’s finished. Whenever.

@DaNanner oh goodie! We liked the first season.

Palm Tree Sunset

2023-03-03/04 day 259/260 of doing art every day for a year (mostly – I took sick days off).

Admittedly, I like sunsets and sunrises, and oceans, and palm trees. I even love the idea of life on a tropical island. I can’t handle the heat at all, though, and that is an entirely different story.

I can pretend that this is from a photo I took of the Indian Ocean from where we lived in Colombo, Sri Lanka. It isn’t, but it’s not far off at all. And it’s fairly likely I’ll do more along this theme in the future.

I made a cherry pie tonight. It’s cooling right now.

It’s a combination of sweet and tart cherries with cinnamon, cardamom, a little sugar and butter.

One apple pie baked.
I told the kids I would give them sunshine on a cloudy day.
Now I need to get cookies in the oven.

"St Ives" Moving away from Ireland for a moment to our Celtic cousin of Cornwall for your morning #painting. This was started live on video, and meant to be finished on the same livestream too but it took me another 3 and half years. #Art
