The dog got double-dinnered. No wonder why she’s so happy… She’s fucking smiling.

I continue to fist fight with this one. A jillion corrections, a jillion more to make. Still in it. #wip #oilpaint #skull #dnd #darkart #undead #paintinginprogress

If you’re an art channel who uses ai to create YouTube thumbnails, you’re a fucking idiot.

Here’s a personal project I’ve been working on. For me. I wanted to put a larger (at least for me) landscape up somewhere in my house. I took the reference photo by a bridge that crosses the Clackamas (I posted it a month ago). 18x24” #wip #oillandscape #river #clackamasriver #oregon #oilpanting

Oil painting in progress. Bridge over the Clackamas River.

I took a big wrong turn with this one and had to wait until it was really dry before I could pick it up again. I dreaded coming back to it thinking it was a failed painting. Pushed forward today and I’ve got it to a good place. #wip #oilpaint #skull #dnd #darkart #undead #paintinginprogress

Spent the afternoon in this practice painting; big leaps forward. #wip #oilpaint #skull #dnd #darkart #undead #paintinginprogress I also started setting up a new big ass landscape painting.

Underpainting. Autocorrect always tries to change this to “Underpants”. This is not a complaint.

Skull underpainting on linen. I toned this canvas mostly with raw umber and burnt sienna, but also burnt umber and caput mortum in smaller amounts. Initial drawing in burnt umber. All from Vasari Colors. I use just bristle brushes for like 99% of the painting.

Mark Glasby @markglasby.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

It’s done! I’ll most likely post a pic after it’s varnished. Really happy how it turned out. Oil on linen 16”x20”. #oilpaint #skull #dnd #darkart #undead #osr #painting #pdxart #art (and it’s already SOLD!)

I am 100% positive that the person reading this online training I have to take at work is an energy vampire. Zzzzzzzzz…

Almost done! Maybe another mini-round and touch up that grill. #wip #oilpaint #skull #dnd #darkart #undead #paintinginprogress

More progress on this one. Roughed in the grill and some lights/corrections. 16x20” (sold) #wip #oilpaint #skull #darkart #dnd

Holy crap! I think I sold my first painting!

Some progress yesterday. Still working with a simplified palette. #wip #oilpaint #skull

I didn’t catch any fish, but I did take some nice pictures. Here’s one:

Yes, the guys fixing the road were dressed as pirates. (OMG I initially wrote “Those guys fixing the…” and my Jersey is showing)

Work in progress: underpainting and some tonal work. Big skull in oils.16x20” just burnt umber and raw umber so far. #wip #oilpainting #skull #darkart

I’m starting a painting. First steps and the reference (which was a pain in the ass to string up with four pound test monofilament).

Today I fell into the Wilson River. It was very cold (but it was fun).

My family and I are in the crowd (somewhere). Our first Thorns match and we had an amazing time! Cool flag. 🤘

Finished a 10x8” Skull study (the paint is still wet). #oilpaint #oilpainting #oilstudy #dnd #osr #skull #oilstilllife #darkart about five nights of work in there.

This is the first fish that I’ve caught in my adult life. The kids are going to be thrilled that they are having rainbow trout for dinner tonight.

Another mini study 7x5” from over the weekend. I’ll probably do a few more passes on this, but it’s off to a good start. #wip #oilpaint #oilpainting #dnd #osr #fantasyart #darkart

Big leap forward on this little beholder study. 7x5” #wip #osr #dnd #oilpainting #oilpaint #beholder Might go another round. I’ll see what it looks like in a few days. Fun little painting.

Beholder study, close to being completed. Oil on linen board.
