Happy #nationalpetday everyone! Our furbabies add so much magic to our lives and deserve to be celebrated. ❤⭐🐾 #guineapig #guineapigsofinstagram #fairytale #illustration #cuteart #wizard #artdaily #artoftheday #fantasyart #mage #watercolor

Some sounds bring us memories that are so distant we can't place their origins. Oceans and lakes give me those. They sound like home on a primal level. Trying to pour those feels into this. #wip #goddess #mythology #watercolor #fairytale #fantasy #me

Still so far to go with this painting, but im enjoying the journey immensely ❤🌈🐚 #watercolorpainting #wip #popsurrealism #newcontemporary #newcontemporaryart #fantasyart #illustration #illustratorsoninstagram #workingmom #lowbrowart #mythology #god

Carrying this in my heart today. #inspirationalquotes #dailymantra #ehlersdanlossyndrome #ehlersdanlos #feminist #womanartist #artlife

When im really stressed, i paint things that bring me peace and call them art tourniquets. Im happy Lucien's neuro wants to try weaning him off medication because he's been seizure-free at a minimal therapeutic dose, but im also terrified his seizure

Talent is a tricky word. On some levels, it discredits the hours and years it takes to improve one's craft. Art is magical, but not wizardry. #talentisoverrated #workhardstayhumble #workhardplayhard #watercolor #artinprogress #alwayslearning #popsurr

Little dude has a double ear infection 😥 no wonder he's been sleeping so poorly. Art will be continued tomorrow. #momlife #mompreneur #workingmom #chicagoartist #boymom #lucienalistaire

Hope Ostara treated all of you to a bit of hope, wonder, and promise of growth! I painted Persephone's Mischief a few years ago at this time of year. Spring is my fav season and she's one of my favs from mythology. #ostara #firstdayofspring #persepho

Looking forward to working on "Ira" again tomorrow! Tues, Wed, and Thurs are my official art days since Lucien's nanny comes over on those days. 12 hours/week have never been more helpful to me! #watercolor #sevensins #sevendeadlysins #wrat

Finished up Briony last week! This painting and prints will be available at #panoply2019 in #huntsvillealabama in just a few weeks! #artshuntsville #hsv #spring #watercolor #newcontemporaryart #popsurrealism #illustration #artoftheday #beautifulbizar

Progression of "Ira" so far. I love painting through my emotions. Art allows me to feel everything, even the things i would never say out loud. #sevensins #watercolor #newcontemporaryart #feminist #darkart #blickartmaterials #popsurrealism

Ira, the latest piece in my Only Human series represents the anger that comes from a place of vulnerability. She is the words we use to lash out at others when we are at our most fragile. #wrath #watercolor #wip #sevendeadlysins #sevensins #venusflyt

Sure, it was -1 a few days ago, but in my heart spring is already in full bloom. 😂 #roses #watercolor #blickartmaterials #dickblick #wip #artinprogress #illustration #painting #popsurrealism #newcontemporary #workingmom #goalgetter #chicagoartist #a

More progress on "Briony" today. #wip #newcontemporary #watercolor #popsurrealism #illustration #instaart #artistsoninstagram #chicagoartist #darkart #ostara #seedstarting #hope

Decided to give one of my inktober pieces the watercolor treatment. #watercolor #danielsmith #blickartmaterials #illustration #popsurrealism #newcontemporaryart #newcontemporary #originalartwork #roses #bringmetolife
