Today in the studio//Worked on the beetle painting, not pictured because I don't think you could see a difference! Some days there is more looking than painting. I started with this blue warmup and honestly, I could stare at it for a while so pretty🩵! #abstractpainting #artblog #artproccess #artsky
August 2014 // I really got into Plein Air painting back then & I went through so many types of setups using acrylic paints (i'm allergic to oils). Now my process of painting is so different it would be interesting to try a full setup. #artprocess #artblog #pleinairpainting #artist #acrylicpainting
Today in the studio // painting! A new beetle painting and some work on a little lichen piece. I put some leaves on the beetle painting, don't know if I'll keep them there but I kind of like what it adds #studioblog #artprocess #art #mixedmedia #painting
In the studio today // Sketched a little in my journal and decided not to paint but to do some collage work instead. #artblog #artprocess #collage #junkjournal #sketchbook #stickers
Today in the shop // Taking pics for the shop opening in August. These are diecuts for journaling and scrapbooking, that are made from prints of my art each one a little different 😍 #shopblog #smallshop #inthewildwoods #WildWoodsStudio #artjournal #journaling #artshop #ephemera
Today in the studio // Two quick warm up sketches and a start of lichen painting. Its funny so many times I start with an idea of a landscape, but it ends up being a close up. #artblog #traditionalart #acrylicpainting #mixedmedia #art #pnwartist
2017 in the studio // Feels like a lifetime ago. #art #contemporaryart #traditionalart #artsy #artstudio
Today in the studio // Strawberries 🍓in my sketchbook and getting more abstract, which is pretty parallel with how I'm feeling these days. #flowerpainting #artsky #art #traditionalart #mixedmedia #artblog
2011 in the studio // This was a time I was trying out mediums. I'm pretty sure this is Holbines water soluble oils. Since I'm allergic to oil fumes, I was trying to reproduce the same look without having an asthma attack. #artblog #artstudio #painting #artsky
Today in the studio // Packaging up diecuts for the shop opening in August ✨ #artistblog #smallshop #artshop #journaling #collage #inthewildwoods #WildWoodsStudio

Yesterday in the studio // Painting in my sketchbook. #artistblog #artiststudio #tradtionalart #sketch
Today in the studio // I've been making so much fiddly, detailed work lately, it felt good to move around and throw paint around ❤️ I didn't use a brush at all today! Paint pens, daubers scrappers, highflow acrylic + spray #artstudio #artistprocess #contemporaryart #painting #abstractpainting
Today in the studio // Finishing up the diecuts. It's taking herculean restraints not to save the scraps 😂 #artblog #artiststudio #inthewildwoods #WildWoodsStudio #shopprep #artshop

Today in the studio // I didn't do any painting, but worked a little on a mini journal. And lots of work on my new shop. I'm almost done with the website!! #InTheWildWoods #InTheWildWoodsStudio #artshop #artblog #artprint #art #artstudio
Today in the studio // More play with spray paint. It's fun to play with because it dries super fast and with water media if it thin enough acts as a resist. #artsky #art #mixedmedia #artjournal #traditionalart #artblog #artist
The other day in the studio // Taking these two warm ups a little further. #painting #artsky #artwip #mixedmedia #artstudio #artblog
Today in the studio // listening to Michelle Obama's speech at the opening of their center and reminded of how good humans can be. #artiststudio #hope #artjournal #artblog
December 23 2021 in the studio// 2021 was a difficult year (I think for most of us!) Before 2020 I was at my most prolific as an artist. I was painting soo much. Do I want to be in that same groove? Maybe, sometimes? But, also I'm pretty sure it isn't sustainable for me. #artistlife #painting
Today in the studio // A quick sketch in one of my journals. Mixed media, Acrylic, and Stabilo Pencils, Paints #artsketchbook #artsky #traditionalart #mixedmedia #pnwartist
