Artist/Dancer/Student/Buffoon. I like to do concept art and illustrations for various projects, as well as traditional fine art and the occassional fanart. Plants and animals are my favorite subjects! Full time art student and ballet dancer/student.

I can't believe I forgot to post my boy, Snapple! My d&d 3.5 bard/rogue/combat trapsmith that plays the ocarina, loves sweets, and is a proficient alchemist and herbalist who recently invented a pumpkin butter healing salve. He's also a little menace that thrives on chaos. #digitalart #artsky #d&d

Not to be dramatic but if this piece cracks in the kiln I'm quitting art forever. Well not really, but the sentiment stands. It's being fired in multiple pieces since I had to cut it off the wire armature it was on, then I'm going to glue it together and paint it, no glazing! #artsky #ceramics

We've put up a show at the Pueblo Arts Alliance! It was entirely student-led and features some great art in multiple mediums. Our art will be up the whole month, but our opening is the 7th. Come out and see us, it's free! Flyer was made by Victoria Cotrell from the Arts Alliance.

Flyer for the First Friday Art Exhibition at the Liminal Space Gallery run by the Pueblo Arts Alliance. The exhibition is "Becoming an Artist: The Art of Learning" and is by the CSUP Student Art Club. The flyer features 6 pieces of art from multiple artists.

Ya know, being a male ballet dancer really just means you gotta be prepared for your director to casually choreograph that you full press a whole woman over your head. Like it's nothing. And then you just go and do it.

My first time making a hollowed out sculptural ceramic piece. Figured a cute little alpaca was as good a subject as any! I adore him. He's currently in the student art show titled "The Boy"

Selling paintings, prints, and a bunch of other stuff at the Oktoberfest in Red River, NM this weekend! At spot 1 right inside the gate with the Thistle and Thorn booth (and there's tons of other great stuff we're selling too!)

How I expected last week to go: -see my partner's music performed live -paint some pretty mountains -see some cute animals How it went: -all that, but also: -drank the world's worst vodka -taught ballet to some composers -learned to (badly) play the didgeridoo

A friend of mine was kind enough to let me attend an art and wine festival with them in June to sell a few of my creations. I only sold a few pet rocks (polymer clay) and the two mini duck paintings, but I had lots of fun making the tiny display domes and the plant buddies too! #art #craftfair

A row of five 1 inch tall glass display domes with wooden bases. From left to right, the first dome contains a mini stone monolith akin to Stonehenge. The second dome contains a treasure chest sitting atop a pile of gold coins and various gems. The middle dome contains a tiny easel holding a tiny landscape painting. The fourth dome contains a tiny cliffside with a wizards tower at the top with a staircase leading up to it. The fifth and last dome contains another stone monolith like the first one. All except the middle are made from painted polymer clay. The middle dome with the easel and painting is made from wooden sticks, a small flat piece of basswood, and paint. An acrylic display stand with four rows. The top row has two miniature canvas paintings of ducks, one sitting on a miniature easel, and three sets of Zelda fairy earrings in red, green, and blue. The next shelf down holds 3 pets rocks and two mini display domes. The third shelf down holds two pet rocks, two display domes, and a small display of polymer clay plant buddy stakes in the middle (consisting of blue, green, and red Zelda fairies and some bumblebees). The bottom row contains 4 pet rocks and one display dome. A picture of nine pet rocks with moss on them and simple faces. They are made from polymer clay and nylon model terrain grass. A peg board display featuring 5 acrylic paintings. The leftmost is a 16x20 inch stretched canvas painting of a desert mountain landscape. The four paintings on the right are 12x12 wooden panel paintings of an abstract flower, a bear in a bowl of fruit loops, an abstract/stylized ocean sunset, and golden koi fish circling each other. All four of them were made primarily using palette knife techniques.

I swear I'm not dead, I forgot social media existed. I've been learning how to code/program in general and how to use Unreal Engine. I've become a hermit spending two hours trying to fix something only to realize that I forgot a "/" which broke the whole thing. Alas.

I have submitted 5 pieces to the Raised by Wolves show at Liminal Space Gallery! All were great fun to make. I'm excited to see them among other artists' work on April 4th! Each is a 12x12 wood panel and acrylic paint. In order: Flowers From My Heart Balance Running Wild Golden Sun Beary Loopy

Using flowers my boyfriend gave me to make artwork. The little panel was my practice panel. I love this color, it pops so well! Golden's High Flow Acrylics are very fun to work with, though I'm not sure this is necessarily their intended use! I still have pink on my hands a day later.

Two flowers and their stems and leaves laid across a piece of paper covered in florescent pink acrylic paint. A small wooden panel with some pink flower impressions is in the upper left corner. There is a palette knife resting at the bottom of the piece of paper. Various art supplies can be seen in the background and edges of the picture but are not the main focus.

Historically, I have been abysmal at #watercolor painting, but I think my painting class finally pushed me enough to "get it". I'm having lots of fun working traditionally again, even if some things don't come out perfect. I am pretty happy with how this turned out given it's a medium I never use!

Collection of eight numbered small watercolor paintings. 1 is a bush, 2 is a pine tree, 3 is a tree trunk, 4 is a small painting of a building surrounded by trees and bushes, 5 is a leaf, 6 is a tree, 7 is a bonsai tree, and 8 is a bush. Watercolor landscape painting. There are three mountains and a blue sky in the background. There is a hill with a line of trees and a few single trees in the mid ground. In the foreground there are three trees, some grass and flowers, and a dirt pathway leading into the distance.
