Flower Sketch
I still love just putting Pencil to paper and going with the flow. Flowers come very naturally to me, these are actually designs i am using in my new piece, i am painting a cigar box with acrylics.
Water Color Tray with imagination
I decided to paint a bit on my lunch break between classes, so i sat on a bench and just went for it. I thought of a romantic night in France, which inevitably leads me to thinking about the ocean and waves! My sketch paper is not exactly water color ready, as you can see! I recently went out and got a watercolor field pad and i am looking forward to using it in the near future! hopefully it will be full by the end of Christmas!
Conservatory
I bought a water color tray so i could travel and sketch whatever i see in a quick amount of time, instead of using water color tubes. I went to the Cincinnati Conservatory and had a blast sketching the waterfall and some different plants that caught my eye. I really liked using a tray!

Acrylic (Fall Edition)
So, I still only have the primary colors, brown and green for acrylic colors, but i really wanted to make a fall painting. This is a more abstract picture of a golden trail with fall trees all around it.
This is my second fall painting, it was at a park and i drew a few things i was looking at. I did alot of mixing in water which made a pretty unique leafy floor. I have been using watercolor paper to do my acrylic art on and i realized that this is why the sky keeps bleeding through my foreground, because i need to invest in some actual acrlic paper (it's much more plastic feeling, instead of paper)

Dragon & Gypsy
I loved painting the dragon, and I also thought the gypsy was one of my best pieces of art. So I wanted to combine them together and make a fun scene. This piece was originally going to be painted on a larger canvas as a gift, and this was a trial size. I am very proud of this piece; it was all done by my imagination and inspired by Adam, Kim and my previous art.
