Making good progress on this oil painting. Almost everything blocked in now. Looking forward to going in and trying to push paint surface and correct some of the drawing issues that still linger. (work in progress) #art #painting #portrait #violin #oilpainting #artwork #handmade #humanmade

Hoping to get this one back up on the easel this weekend. So close to being done. Need to work on the texture and see if I can emphasize the patina without losing the structure. "Rapture" D20 (Patina) - oil on ACM panel - 12"x12" (work in progress) #OilPainting #TraditionalArt #SmallPaintings #D20

Haven't worked on this one in a couple of weeks but made a big jump this weekend. I think I'll need one (maybe two) more passes to really get it locked in but it's getting pretty close. This is duo portrait of copper D20s, oil on panel 12"x18" #OilPainting #SmallPaintings #ContemporaryArt #D20

Started this dice painting about a month ago, think it's just about finished now. Going to let it sit for a week and look with fresh eyes but should only be small tweaks at this point. "Rapture" D20 (Shiny) - oil on panel - 12"x12" #art #painting #oilpaint #d20 #dice #dnd #ttrpg #handmade

Got a day each in on this pair of paintings. I think it could make for a nice diptych. Just getting some of the local color blocked in on this first pass layer. Long way to go still, but excited by the promise. "Rapture D20" shiny and with a patina (in progress) #art #painting #dice #d20 #dnd

Starting 2 brand new paintings. These amazing "Rapture" dice from SummitDice are incredible. One without a patina and one with a pretty strong green patina. Thought it would make a nice diptych pair. Transfer and wipeout. #art #painting #oilpainting #wipeout #work-in-progress #dice #d20 #ttrpg

I finished this one off this past weekend. I really love the beautiful rainbows you get from these prismatic glass dice. This is the third painting I've done of them. Endless variations. Prismatic Glass with Star-cut Corners D20 - oil on panel - 12"x12" #art #painting #oilpaint #dice #d20 #ttrpg

Between 2017 and 2021 I found it impossible to do studio work. Now I feel like I'm going to have to hold on to these little dice portraits with both hands just so I don't fall back into that pit of despair. Jade D20 - oil on panel - 12"x12" #art #painting #d20 #ttrpg #dnd #pf2e #oilpainting

Another good session, and this #painting is wrapped up. I darkened the shadow areas with a maganese violet pass to darken, make it more chromatic and to relate it better to the background area. That helped the shadow side of the form look more solid. 3D Printed Hollow Metal D20 - Oil #ttrpg #d20

Best part about time off from work is more studio time. First time straying from the icosahedrons for this series. But these "elven cut" D10s were so great they really called to me. Amethyst D100 - oil paint on ACM panel - 16" by 12" #oilpainting #painting #d100 #d20 #ttrpg

Got some new oil #paint to work with. I have an amethyst D100 and an aquamarine D20 #painting that are in progress. I think these will help out a lot. I haven't used Michael Harding paints before, excited to try these out.
