Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 01/06/2025Restrained A digital study in tension, form, and light. This piece explores the quiet strength of the male figure—his body partially bound in rope, highlighting the contours of muscle and the interplay of shadow and cool blue tones. 030
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 01/06/2025There’s a quiet magic beneath the surface. 🌊 I’ve always wanted to paint that feeling. In this piece, a woman in a formal gown submerges herself, shedding expectations to embrace something deeper—freedom, serenity, stillness. Created using Rebelle 7 Pro by @escapemotions ✨ 040

Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 22/05/2025Just finished a speed painting of a water buffalo with its bird companion—nature’s symbiosis in action. 🐃🐦 Painted in Rebelle 7 Pro. Soft edges, less detail, more imagination. Art is perception. #DigitalArt #Rebelle7 #WildlifeArt #Symbiosis #SpeedPainting 081
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 21/05/2025What a pleasure it was to paint this sunset using Rebelle 7 Pro. Surprisingly quick and easy—sometimes the simplest moments create the most beauty. #Rebelle7 #EscapeMotions #DigitalArt #SunsetPainting #DigitalArtist #LandscapeArt #SpeedPainting #ArtProcess 030
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 18/05/2025Titled: Solstice Sun beaming through a wave! This one lived in my imagination for a while, and I thought — why not have some fun painting it? I let it emerge as I put paint down on the wood panel that’s sealing off the rest of the window where my air-conditioner sits. #Solstice #WaveArt #SunsetVibes 010
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 17/05/2025The Regal Process. Using Rebelle 7 Pro by Escape Motions.. 000
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 17/05/2025I enjoyed this process, painting a regal man using Rebelle 7 Pro. Loose brush strokes, focusing only on key parts of the portrait. #rebelle7pro #digitalpainting 030
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 12/05/2025Power. Grace. Legacy. I painted this African woman warrior standing beside a silverback ape — symbolizing strength, protection, and ancestral pride. Created using Rebelle 7 Pro. Every brushstroke tells a story. Would you walk beside the ape or the warrior? 000
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 05/05/2025Every once in a while, it just flows—this sketch came together out of pure inspiration! I had to draw something I’ve always thought was super cool: Dragon Ball Super’s Ultra Instinct. Created using Procreate on the iPad. Let me know what you think! #DragonBallSuper #UltraInstinct #ProcreateArt 010
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 04/05/2025Tried something fun—painted the same landscape twice: once with acrylic on canvas, and once digitally. It’s wild to see the differences side by side! Which one do you think works better? Drop your vote in the comments! #DigitalArt #AcrylicPainting #LandscapeArt #DigitalVsTraditional 040
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 30/04/2025Progress update. This time, I’m focusing on capturing the essence rather than every strand of fur. In my last piece, I overworked the details—but here, less is more, and it’s starting to look more natural and alive.#WildlifeArt #AnimalPortrait #ArtistAtWork #PaintingProgress 000

Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 27/04/2025Getting ready to start a new painting of a mother lion and her cub — one of my favorite themes to capture! I’m testing out a brand new brush today: the sword liner. It’s perfect for those long, expressive strokes and fine details I’ll need for their fur and movement. 010
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 20/04/2025Just finished my first acrylic painting in over 20 years—and what a journey! Plenty of mistakes, but even more learning. No better way to dive back into traditional mediums than painting this regal lion. Proud of how it turned out! #AcrylicPainting #TraditionalArt #WildlifeArt #LionArt 150
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 19/04/2025Some days the world spins too fast—news, stress, chaos. But I come back to 3 things: 1. Health—I move to stay centered. 2. Art—I create to bring order. 3. My son—my anchor, my why. Health, creativity, love. My constants. #StrongMindStrongBody #ArtistFather #CreateThroughChaos 000
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 16/04/2025First time painting on wood—and it’s a lion. I prepped this birch panel myself and started the first layer of shapes and shadows last week. Still a ways to go, but I’m enjoying the process. Details and textures coming soon—stay tuned. #WorkInProgress #WildlifeArt #AcrylicPainting #ArtInProgress 010
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 16/04/2025Just finished this concept in Procreate—planning to paint it in acrylic on canvas. A man diving into nowhere. Motion speaks to me—freedom, risk, stillness mid-flight. These moments burn bold in memory. #ArtInMotion #ProcreateArt #AcrylicSoon #ConceptArt #LeapOfFaith #VisualPoetry 030
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 14/04/2025Paying tribute to the majestic macaw with this vibrant painting. I created it using Rebelle 7 to capture the bold colors and delicate textures.

Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 30/03/2025Who knew seashells could be so tricky to paint? Capturing their textures and colors—especially when piled together—is a real challenge. This piece, inspired by a kestrel painting I did for my mom, pushed me to paint freely and focus on the bigger picture. #FineArt #SeashellPainting #ArtisticJourney 050
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 28/03/2025Another Oregon Coast Painting. I saw improvements with this one while still painting loosely and freely. This was a fun one! #rebelle7pro #fineart #seascape #landsapepaintings #digitalart 040
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 27/03/2025I can see improvements already! Feeling more relaxed and loose! Letting go to paint better! #digitalpainting #fineart #rebelle7pro #escapemotions. 010
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 26/03/2025Just finished this beach scene using impasto! Shifting from realism to impressionism has been a challenge, but I love how the bold strokes and texture bring it to life. Excited for what’s next! #ImpastoPainting #BeachPainting #BoldBrushstrokes #ArtisticJourney 020
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 22/03/2025One of my all-time favorite paintings—my sister and her husband, captured during such a special moment: pregnancy. The bond, the anticipation, the love—it’s all here. So grateful to have created this piece. #portraitpainting #procreate #fineart #digitalpainting @procreate.com 020
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 21/03/2025Did this painting in dedication to the Bird that perched on the roof of my parents house for several years! #birdpainting #fineart 050
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 21/03/2025Just finished this painting using Rebelle 7 Pro by Escape Motions. I Rebelle 7 to have the most natural realistic painting experience compared to the real thing. #portraitpainting #fineart #escapemotion 040
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 19/02/2025One of my favorite takeaways from The Five Things We Cannot Change: “Don’t look for your other half; look for someone who sees you as whole.” I love this perspective—it’s about embracing our completeness rather than seeking someone to fill a void. 💡💙 #SelfLove #Wholeness #growthmindset 020
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 02/02/2025Just finished this Kestrel painting, inspired by the bird that perched on my parents’ home in the Bahamas for years. 🦅 They even named their Airbnb after it! 🎨🏡 #Kestrel #WildlifeArt #BahamasVibes #escapemotions #digitalpainting #fineart 080
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 22/12/2024My parents named their Airbnb Kestrel after the beautiful bird that has been perching on their roof for years. To honor this, I’ve decided to paint a Kestrel to add a personal touch to the decor of their vacation rental. Their home will be my gallery! 🖌️🐦 #KestrelArt #AirbnbDecor #BirdInspired 000
Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 07/12/2024My first landscape painting! 🌄 Not my usual expertise or comfort zone, but I’m embracing the challenge to grow and explore new creative horizons.

Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 07/12/2024The interplay of shadows and highlights brings a painting to life. Rebelle 7 Pro—it’s a game-changer. The painting experience feels incredibly authentic, surpassing even Procreate, Clip Studio Paint, and other software I’ve tried. 🌟 #PortraitPainting #Rebelle7Pro #DigitalArt #ArtistTools 010

Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 25/11/2024Safe to say I cracked the water code! 💧 Now it’s time to tackle the trees. 🌳 They’re definitely the toughest part—those detailed textures are tricky!

Gérard @we-thrive.bsky.social · 24/11/2024Working on “Girl in Pond,” a composition outside my comfort zone. I specialize in portraits, so adding a landscape and a woman in a pond is an exciting challenge. Feeling good so far! #art #progress #artstudy #painting 020
