I know I'm terrible about keeping up on Blue Sky, but thought I'd share some recent paintings. #watercolorpainting #gouachepainting #landscapeart

A few of my recent paintings, since again, I have woefully neglected Bluesky! #painting #watercolor #landscape #art

Oops, neglecting Blue Sky again! Sorry! This little landscape was almost a bit too complicated for me to handle. There was A LOT going on in the reference pic! #watercolor #landscape #art #painting

A great listen. The budget plan passed by the House this week at Trump’s urging gives billionaire oligarchs & giant corporations the lion’s share of $4.5 trillion in tax cuts. To offset the $4.5 trillion, the plan includes severe spending cuts to Medicaid, food stamps, & Social Security. #auspol

The latest on layoffs at NOAA/National Weather Service, including some numbers and functions hit hardest. The experts who keep weather models running, track satellites, & model weather and climate hit particularly hard, along w/ some NWS fcst offices. www.axios.com/2025/02/28/n...

I followed a Paul Clark tutorial for this one. I have a Paint with me community that did this one with me. Did you want to give it a try? #paintwithJulie2025 #art #painting #watercolor #landscape

Trying out a new @humbeckstudios watercolor paint. It's called tobiatic sky, so it deserved to shine with a dark sky painting. #painting #art #watercolor #landscape

I've been woefully neglecting my Bluesky account, sorry! Here's a painting inspired by Casey Horner on Unsplash. I added some shimmer with some paint by @humbeckstudios. You can see a bit of the sparkle in the sunlit pic. #painting #watercolor #tree #art

Just playing around with DS Rose of Ultramarine. Have you tried painting with this color? It's so beautiful, with its two tones. #art #landscape #watercolor #painting

I tried to capture this peach sky, but I think I didn't go vibrant enough. I'm still pretty happy with how the sky came out though. #art #landscape #painting #watercolor

Project 2025 was unpopular because of things like the plan for Trump to shut down the CFPB, which helps you get your money back if a bank cheats you.

Sometimes I'm inspired by TV scenery! You know those shots they use to segue from one scene to the next? I keep my phone handy so I can grab some reference material from those. 😂 I believe this one is from Expedition Bigfoot (don't judge me, it's good!) #art #watercolor #landscape #painting

Remember back when we thought it would require Congress, and, you know, laws and shit, for our government to destroy Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid? We were so cute back then.

For my weekly gouache painting, the theme this month is Animation, so I drew Baymax from Disney's Big Hero Six. I followed a drawing tutorial by easydrawingtutorials.com (they have super helpful step by step instructions). This was a fun one to paint! #gouache #art #fanart #painting

Icy branches are tough to capture, so I didn't really try. I stuck with the lighting on the branches instead. 🤷🏻‍♀️ #art #watercolorlandscape #painting

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

Today's painting with the reference. I dropped water on this sky too. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I only noticed after I'd painted the rest of it. So I rewet the sky and filled in the messed up part. There's also accidental paint splatter birds, because you can't have dark specks in your sky. 😂 #watercolorlandscape

I'm not sure I love how changing up the colors of this sunset ended up, but being back in the office is really limiting my painting time, so it will have to do! #watercolorlandscape

Today's painting, with the reference. I had a bit of a catastrophe while painting it, by which I mean I dropped water right in the middle of my carefully painted sky. I went back with a second layer and managed to end up with something halfway decent... but the ugly phase was scary with this one!

I'm not sure I'll make the switch to Blue Sky entirely, but here I am. Watercolor landscape (mostly) artist by night and office worker bee by day. I'm a self taught artist, so as long as you're not expecting master level works out of me, you won't be disappointed. 😁
