Watercolor homework + Fruity Sangria = Sunday Funday @wildbasinhardseltzer @oskarblues ...

We’re ready for our watercolor class tonight with @ginaaltadonna and @mainlineartcenter!

I’ve been a longtime fan of Gina’s work so I felt really lucky when I saw she was teaching this class. (Go check out her work!) Watercolors are scary to me so I never used them, so I think this will be good for my art soul. 🎨

(And thanks @k_ryan_art for the watercolor paper!) ...

I know her! ☺️ I snagged this photo from @katerinaspopova 💓 Can’t wait to get my own copy and see the latest issue of @createmagazine in print!

Ginger Rudolph from @hahamag curated this issue and I’m honored to have a featured interview. There are so many great artists in this issue (#23) that I either know personally or have been stalking 😆. Thank you, thank you, thank you 🙏!!!

I’m over it. I’d like to go back to being under these palms right meow.🌴

2 nights ago @k_ryan_art had a dream we drove to Hawaii by car (🤷🏻‍♀️) and she woke up before we got there. Can’t wait to hear if our dream selves made it there last night. ...

Also gotta shoutout to my dudes at @pinksinks for giving me this shirt to work in when I showed up with no appropriate clothes to paint in.

Thankful for the best studio assistant of all time. @tulathegreat ...

Feeling pretty exhausted after putting up two murals back to back. It could be from staying up painting til 1:30AM a few nights, or the overall hype and physical toll (I just had a birthday during all that, I’m 36 now 🎉 and my body is not springing back 😬).

But there’s also such an emotional release when the work is done. I always feels a little sad and lost afterwards. Being so immersed and attached, to suddenly removed entirely is a strange experience.

So, I’m taking it slower this week and launching my beginner mural course and getting my shop ready for the holidays. Stay tuned for those offerings this weekend! 🙌

On that note: PLEASE, please, pleeeeeeaaase remember all of your small business friends and ditch the big corporations when shopping this year! 😘

When I installed this mural a few years ago there was metal bar top attached to the wall where that primed white stripe is. At the time, I made what I thought was the best decision: to lower the entire mural under the bar ... not realizing years later this space would go under major construction and I’d have to paint out that whole section 😂

This is the kind of problem solving I enjoy, and also why I’m so thankful most of this area was pattern I could make up.

Eyeballing that circle though, I felt like Claire in Six Feet Under with her art school homework where she had to draw a perfect circle. SHE WAS STRESSED (I was only stressed about the election) Who else LOVES that show?! It’s an all-time favorite of mine. Might be time for a re-watch. ...

Throwback to this mural install a couple years back. Just gave this mural a makeover for the space’s new renovations. Stay tuned for all the changes! 🦉 🌺 💎 ...
