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.

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.

"St Ives" Moving away from Ireland for a moment to our Celtic cousin of Cornwall for your morning . 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.

A digital art creation of two blue and gold macaws in-flight through the dense jungle flora. A fun avian creation where a tropical theme is desired.

Pine on a Ridge

2023-03-02 day 258 of doing art every day for a year (mostly – I took sick days off).

This is complete experimentation on my part. I see things I would change if I were to do it again, and yet, I still like it.

Northern Lights

2023-02-28 to 2023-03-01 day 256/257 of doing art every day for a year (mostly – I took sick days off).

I’m not entirely happy with this, but I wasn’t making it any better, so I said enough and I’m calling it done. No doubt I’ll try this again. Later. Sometime.

In een bos bij maakte ik vorig najaar deze foto, op een ietwat mistige koude ochtend.

I've already blocked at least half a dozen of these users, all with the identical username, identical photo, leading to the same URL. I wish there was a way to block by the username so I didn't have to keep blocking them.
