After 2 decades working in media, I'm leaving to enroll in an MFA. I'm proud of the career, but the burnout became real. This #oilpainting evokes feeling dried up, yet looking forward. 'Dessicant', #oiloncanvas, 8x8 inches #art #fineart #figurativeart #model #surrealism #contemporaryart #realism

"Like Fighting Water", oil on wood panel. #Betta #fish are known for their confrontational nature and aggressive displays of beauty. Even in situations that seem pointless, I like to think that asserting confidence with unapologetic style can boost inner strength. #art #oilpainting #asianart
A show I co-curated with Marina Delaney for the Cayuga Arts Collective is opening tonight at the Community School of Music and Art in Ithaca, NY 5:00-7:00 pm tonight “Heaven and Hell”

I'm sorry, what?! Also, I'm losing my mind over the proliferation of this term "publicly accessible" in the context of AI training. Copyright law still exist, sharing something to be VIEWED by the public doesn't strip the work of its legal protections!
Finishing up some winter landscape paintings in time for Spring! #snowscene #winter #landscape #paintings #nylandscape #oilpainting #domenicabrockman #landscapepainting #tonalism
Sometimes you just have to show up and start playing around to get anywhere. This is the result of today’s studio practice. #arteveryday #domenicabrockman #abstractart #encausticart #collage #art #abstract #painting #abstractpainting
"Pink Moon" this morning! 🌙 Glow is Anchorage, Alaska, to the south 💕
Transport options in #Yellowknife: #dogsledding, or #snowmobiling... What a handsome fella this doggo was. Small and fast, but densely packed with muscle. 💪 Ride up to the Snowking's #Winter Festival for ice sculptures and live music in -26C! #Northwestterritories #Canada
Another view of the #Dettah ice road, connecting #Yellowknife to Dettah. Ice roads are sometimes the only way goods can be transported to areas in the #NorthwestTerritories Definitely need some grippy tires to drive across this frozen lake! Look how beautiful the blues in the ice are....!
“In a bind II” is fresh off the easel. 15x12 inches, oil on panel
Looking into the abyss! Standing on the ice road that connects #Yellowknife to #Dettah (a #FirstNations community) in the #NorthwestTerritories. The ice is estimated to be 4-6 feet thick in places. Trucks drive daily over the ice from December to April. The clarity of the ice patterns is unreal!
Happy #Portfolioday! I'm an oil painter, although sometimes I use different mediums. I draw from imagery growing up as part of the Asian diaspora and now as an adult whose job has taken me all over the world. I believe in a humanity that is multi-layered and multi-cultural. lumlingart.com/ #art
Another photo of the Aurora we saw with B.Dene tours, an indigenous owned business! www.bdene.com #Yellowknife #Dene #indigenous #Canada #Aurora #Northwestterritories #stargazing #travel #astrophotography
On medical leave for some health stuff, so booked a getaway to #Yellowknife to chase Auroras! Shout-out to B.Dene for their Aurora tour on an ice lake and for the intro to Dene drumming! (Winged Auroras are called 'Phoenix') www.bdene.com And Tugah dogsledding! www.tugah.com #Aurora #Canada

"Charming"is my painting for "Memories Become Dreams" opening today @wowxwowgallery.bsky.social.I've been chronically unlucky in love in my lifetime, falling for the fairytale every time, when the reality was always something different. #art#fantasy#fineart#folklore#fairytale#acrylicpainting#2Dart
recent sketches from the vaguely themed drawmeet i go to that's like 90% nice old ladies (and also includes @studijo.bsky.social and my real life dad.) artifacts depicted: my cat, epically may he rest, and the Cursed Snowman
Despite my 2025 resolution not to get sucked into the chaos, I'm still doom-scrolling. Self-inflicted harm dominates the news lately, so this oil painting reflected my feelings. Themes of betrayal and violence between little creatures that should be closely related allies, yet tragically cannot be.
