  • Bible Journaling with… watercolor?

    I had seen people online doing it but was hesitant to try it. So, I bought myself a bible just for painting on. Surprisingly, it works similarly to using watercolor on rice paper.

  • Chinoiserie Dogs

    I took a class by Diane Hill last year that was really insightful on the use of gouache for Chinoiserie decoration, she said I could paint almost anything in nature with the meyhods we learned and it sent me on a mini quest to paint people’s dogs. I used to think pet portraits were boring, but they really are wonderful subjects.

  • The Lady of the Shop

    I’m so glad to have been able to complete this painting πŸ–Ό πŸ™Œ

    My old history teacher from middle school gifted me with a bunch of canvas and oil paints and a new beautiful easel. I had not done an oil painting in 10 years. Wow! 😲 I was so intimidated but so moved and honored by his gift I had to try.

    I dedicated this project to the girls at our local boba shop and the amazing work God has done in and through them.

    The view of the cornor i have been working in the past month. I really enjoyed the quiet time worshiping and looking out the window.
  • Sumi-e practice paintings

    The materials are finally beginning to make sense to me. The first few times I used rice paper, I felt like I was not meant to create art with it. However, after attending my first Sumi-e Society conference, I was able to better grasp how to balance the amount of water I was using in my brush. I also discovered that there are so many different kinds of rice paper!
