Had a fun time painting this giant pot for the Weird Pot Party in Durham yesterday evening. It's the views from the pot - I leaned in to the plein air theme. The surface was rough af so I just went with the textured look. #art #publicart #pleinair

"Another stunning piece of art - For me the first bite of a fresh grown tomato is when summer really starts. These lovelies looked like jewels in the sun when I spotted them at the farmer's market." Used to go a farmers market when I lived in Los Angeles - a fun place to shop.

🍅 This one is taking a while to finish, but I love it. I rotate around the tomatoes to paint each layer, letting some dry and some blend. It always goes through an ugly phase before the final layers are added. #watercolor

Of course I forgot to change the tags to not tags since they aren't here on Bluesky. *insert comment about wanting an edit button because I'm too lazy to redo the entire post plus alt*

The opening looks like a lot of fun, but you can also peruse it any other time you're in Whitsett or near Greensboro. And cool off with a beer at the same time.

I'm both excited I'm in this show at the beautiful @redoakbrew @griffithartmuseum (seriously - it's a beautiful venue with a sculpture garden too) AND I feel like I won an award or something because I made it onto the promo posters with my sunflowers painting 🌻🥰 #watercolor #artshow #art

Need to find an extension cord so I can actually turn on the light for this assembly. Also apparently my table isn't sturdy enough because the whole thing shakes lol. Sorry! Will figure that out 😅🎥

Sia Karamalegos (art & photo account) @sia.studio · 07/07/2026

I don't normally share process videos, but I love the way the light is hitting these tomatoes at the farmer's market. It makes me think of summer so much with the hot sun beating down and the juicy flavors of a fresh tomato. 🍅🌞 #watercolor #art

Been working on an art market sign and just finished these add-ons that hang from the main sign. I have my first big art market in August and I'm both nervous and excited. #artmarket #artistlife

I love tomatoes. When I was a toddler, my mom had to beg my Greek grandparents to stop giving them to me because I ate so many I had a rash around my mouth. This little study both reminds me of that but also it's a proud gardener moment. Watercolor on paper 9 x 6.75 in Available #watercolor

...so paintings and a tiny linoprint that are focused on the moment with a prompt for you to pause and observe the world around you that month. FYI it would be more polished than the photo - I don't have fancy stationery on hand to show you yet 💅

I started before the game so it was a bit easier. :) Not much crowd that early and I had to wait to sketch in the players in their normal positions after the main painting was done

Lovely day painting at Duke Gardens with @ncartmeets.com ! Today I focused on the rose garden so that I could paint the fountain. I love all the potted succulents that surround it too. Cc @warriorpainters.bsky.social #pleinairpril #pleinair #watercolor
