I don’t normally show works in progress, but one of my biggest struggles is keeping my online life active while I’m being creative, and vice versa. A lot of times I’ll spend months creating things and not updating my website, and other times I’ll spend months online not creating, and then I don’t have anything “new” to show on my blog when I’m actually using it.
So I’m going to meet you halfway and start sharing my works in progress, which is admittedly a little bit intimidating to do as an artist.
This is my rough lean underlayer and a little bit of preliminary painting for a commission I am currently working on of a dear friend’s daughter. We both loved the accidental classical pose so much that it insisted upon being realized as an oil painting. I will continue to update as I progress through this piece.

I also have several posts that I need to make about some other exciting things, including a news article/interview about me, and a much-needed post about the Gala that my work and I were recently involved in. Stay tuned!
