This is a step-by-step tutorial of how I painted this skull and frog using acrylic paint on a wood panel. This is the first skull and frog I've actually ever painted in a realistic style. This method is a lot easier than it may seem and anyone can do this with a little patience and practice. This was a commissioned piece and a little different subject matter than I normally paint, but it was a lot of fun and I'm super happy with the result. I hope you like it too.

I make two abstract paintings of flamingos primarily using a negative space painting technique with acrylic paint and a palette knife. I show how the combination of the palette knife, acrylic paint, painting on a wall and doing multiple paintings at once all contribute to staying loose and adding energy to the work.
The end result has a very Florida, Key West or just coastal vibe. I love creating this type of contemporary style art. Feels like something very fitting for a beach vacation home. Let me know if you agree. I'm thinking about trying other similar subjects, shells, ocean, seascapes etc.

En Plein Air #1: I finally get outdoors and try my first "En Plein Air" painting in over 25 years and my first one ever with casein. I started by painting some backgrounds and doing a practice landscape in an old watercolor sketchbook. I did really enjoy trying to learn a new medium and documenting a bit of our home as I captured our raised bed garden. I plan to paint a bunch more of these in the coming months to see just how much I can improve in this type of painting. Hope you enjoy and learn something!

When an abstract landscape isn't working out I switch it up and start to paint instinctively. I use my intuition and bring some fun and energy as I paint over the landscape and make a whole new abstract faces painting. This is a process I've perfected over many years of practice. Watch and listen as I discuss my techniques and thought processes in achieving much more interesting and satisfying results with my art.
