Ok, so Tuesday I am having an open house for my new studio space. Do I go more professional with my rose sleeve shirt, artsy jewelry and maybe a “bad bitch” jacket? Or go full on witchy with a boho dress and black leggings and boots? #artistwardrobe #thelook #witchyvibes
Here is my little Amethyst Healer, I recently found her. The original had been lost for years! #ARTSHARE #witchyart #crystals
I actually had some time to sketch last night and came up with a couple new witchy concepts. Here is a close-up of one of my new ideas. Anyone else find as soon as you are full with client work, then that’s when the personal art ideas start flowing! lol #witchyart #sketching #fantasyart
When you are the most affordable model you’ve got 😆 Here some reference images I took that I used for my Seance cover art #soundbooththeater #referenceimages #seance
