Here's one of the first oil painting I attempted. It's a simple still life of some glass objects and sea conch. I'm surprised it turned out alright as I had no idea what I am doing.

I don't usually do fanart, but sometimes I like a character on the show, so I draw a portrait of them. This time I was watching TV show called Lucifer, and I ended up drawing a portrait of detective Chloe.

Fantasy creatures is one of the reasons I love polymer clay. With this medium, it is possible to bring fantasy to life, and not just on a flat surface, but in 3D!
