Holy shit, I finally have a “Finshed” post to go along with the dozens of “In Progress” posts I make. I’m pretty proud of this one.

First up is the Coelacanth I painted for a local art battle. We had one hour to complete a painting from start to finish. It was pretty fun and has already sold (Thanks again Erica!). It was a good time.

Next up is something for gabcollab.tumblr.com. Gabrielle Rose adds new watercolor blobs every now and then for people to draw on and submit back to her as a fun collaborative project. I printed the blob out and did this at lunch today.
