Recently, I tried streaming my digital drawing process. The most positive effect that came from it was the ability to follow a schedule. It’s surprising how many distractions are there that keep me from actually drawing or painting. However, if I commit to a streaming schedule, I’m more likely to draw that day! I think … Continue reading Underwater Friends – Digital Drawing

For the longest time, I wanted to make a post about this whole situation with quarantine due to COVID-19. I've started writing multiple times, and every time it would just turn into whining and ranting. Instead, I'll keep those thoughts to myself, and try to stay positive at least in this web space. Therefore, I … Continue reading Digital in Reality – Life Drawing Sessions
I continue to experiment with small still life setups, like this pear painting. However, this time I chose two subjects. The apple and pear are the best of friends, especially in a pie! Anyway, let's stay on topic here! I tried to make the apple to be the focal point of this painting. The pear … Continue reading Apple and Pear on the Table, oil painting

I always loved flowers, but painting them could be quite a tedious process. In … Continue reading Bouquet of Mums in a Vase, oil painting
This is indeed The Pear for me, since it's the first pear I tried to paint with oil paint. I love the way it turned out, and it might even be my favorite painting of the year. It's hard to show the beauty of oil paint with just a photograph, but depending on the lighting, … Continue reading The Pear, oil painting
I have recently started exploring oil paint as a medium, and I fell in love with it immediately. The translucency and vividness of colors impressed me so much, that I wanted to throw color everywhere! This gave me an idea to start a series "Drunk with Color." I started my journey with small still life … Continue reading Lemon on the Checkered Tablecloth, oil painting

The weather in Texas is very much unpredictable. It can be a calm and sunny afternoon after a swooping thunderstorm in the morning. This is one of those "quiet now" days in July -- water too cold to get in the pool, but it's nice to just sit in the shade. 8.5 x 5.5 in … Continue reading Quiet Day in July, gouache painting
