iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

So, I answered an open call for a juried exhibition in March—the first time I’d ever done anything like that. I was thrilled to find out I’d been accepted, and even more thrilled to learn my painting won an honourable mention, and sold opening night. #OilPainting #ArtShow #Summer&GraceGallery

An oil painting in square format showing an open jar of honey in front of a window. A spiral honey dipper balances on the edge of the jar with one drop of honey suspended, shining in the light from the window. At the other end of the dipper rests a honey bee, providing a counterbalance for the drop. The jar of honey glows with light in shades of white, lemon yellow, gold, orange and ochre.

This is a screenshot from the Instagram stories of the Summer & Grace Gallery showing the Award of Honourable Mention for the painting described in the previous image.

I did a little sketch of my handsome fellow last night. #Art #Sketchbook #Drawing #Cats

A pencil sketch of a cat’s face that fills up the majority of the page. The only colour is the yellow/green of the cat’s eyes.

Anyone else absolutely addicted to this show? My husband and I finished the latest season and days later he said, “Well, do you want to start at the beginning?” It was an enthusiastic yes from me! Who should I draw next? #Sketchbook #Severance #PencilSketch #Art

A pencil sketch of Innie Mark holding a bunch of blue balloons, looking confused or concerned, or both. The balloons and blue card on a lanyard around his neck are the only source of colour in the drawing.

Thank you, Susan! Most of us know that these actions of the government do not represent the will of the people. Which is why it’s so heartening to see the American people stand up and speak up. You are the true America. We see you!

That’s the hope. The lies have to start unraveling for them at this point. Stay strong, and good luck!

I’ve been doing some long neglected website updating and found a few old paintings that I had completely forgotten lurking in the photo archives. Hello again little fellow. #BSkyArt #OilPainting #TraditionalArt #CowArt

A small painting of a white faced cow with reddish brown neck and ears. The head and ears occupy most of the canvas, with a bit of green grass and shrubs in the background. There is warm white light on the left side of the cow’s head with pale purple shadow on the right.

I’m unreasonably excited about this series—I can’t even imagine the chaos that will ensue!

Nothing artificial over here, (intelligence is up for debate), just a bonafide human being making artwork in her dining room. *all work below is currently available

An oil painting of a cluster of White Irises that appear blue and purple in the dappled shade in the garden.

An oil painting of a Holstein cow grazing in a bright green field of grass. The sun is low and there are long shadows across the field.

Dammit, Tammy! Stop dragging down our name. Some of us are out here trying to live good, honest lives. At least we’ve got Tammy Duckworth out there representing.

I mean, you’re absolutely right. I had intended to do a little bit more on the lowest section of fruit—maybe I will, maybe I won’t. I appreciate your kind words just the same. 🙂

Oh my darling, oh my darling, oh my darling clementine. 🎶 An unfinished drawing from the sketchbook. #sketch #drawing #PencilCrayons #BSkyArt

A soft, pencil crayon sketch of three sections of clementine, peeled and arranged on a white plate, casting purple shadows out behind them. The colours are soft, almost pastel, and the light shines through making some sections of the clementine translucent.

Come away, O human child! To the waters and the wild With a faery, hand in hand, For the world’s more full of weeping than you can understand. —W. B. Yeats A page from the sketchbook. For those days when you’d rather be in Fairyland.

A sketchbook page showing an old, twisted tree rippling with colour: blues and greens, pinks and lavenders and golden yellow. There are luminescent mushrooms at the base of the tree and along the trunk. There is a lighted doorway with steps leading into the tree, and a lantern hanging by the door. Fern fronds and moss cover the forest floor around the tree. The sketch is in pencil crayon.

Shoot! I forgot the ALT text! “The image is a square format portrait of an elegant, red haired middle aged woman. She is wearing a black sweater, a white beaded necklace and pearl earrings. She has her head angled down, looking up at the viewer as she fiddles with the back of her hair.”
