#110 + #111 | 365-Days of Color: 1-Commission, 1-Moo Moo, and 2-Ocean Mini's

On day’s when I’m not editing super long tutorials I have so much more time to paint. The only problem is I cannot turn off my artist brain and I forget to post these here. That’s why we have two days worth of art here! Yesterday I finished Mr. Pelican.

I also added the final touches to Mama Moo Moo and her babies!

I started a tabby cat commission on an 8x10 canvas. I’m working on a window in the background.

This one was Adam’s idea to paint an octopus. I tried to really get loose with this one!

Welp! All these painting tutorials except the cow will be made into tutorials going in the Online Animal Art Masterclass.

For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace.
— 1 Corinthians 14:33

I love this verse! I’m so glad I found it today because I’ve been overthinking many things. That’s not God speaking though! It’s freeing.

Daily Creative Quiet Time

Here I go! All through 2022 I’ll be sharing my daily creative quiet time routine. I’ll shoot for 10-minutes a day (at least) progressing through a Commission, or an Online Animal Art Masterclass tutorial, or a Youtube tutorial, or artwork for Collectors.

For me the creative process involves more than just colorful paint, it’s an act of praise and worship. I chose the phrase “Confidence in the Lord” as my art/life focus for the year. I plan to pull colorful inspiration from bible verses, the valuable lessons of life, and the vibrant paint I get my hands on! Now lets paint.
