Marker Landscapes Desert and Aurora Borealis
I made two new marker landscapes. I used Marabu landscape bundle. It came with the paper and markers to make these artworks. The first artwork features a desert. I started with the dry trees first.

I painted the black shadows afterwards. The sun is facing the trees. It is important to imagine the source of light in your artworks. This helps you keep all your shadows...
Watercolor Cityscape Travel Paintings: Roatan, Key West and Cartagena
Today, I wanted to show you three distinct landscape paintings. They are based on travel photographs. Before the plague, I used to travel about the Caribbean at least once a year.

It wasn’t the best place to live, but it wasn’t terrible either. It was vanilla. Vanilla is good. We ended up moving because we outgrew the place. We were no longer small brats, and we needed...
Mountains and Interior Backgrounds for Doll Theater
I made some new backgrounds for doll theater. I finally used my last project board. I need to come up with a funny skit for my Wednesday episode. I do not even know why I do the episodes on a Wednesday. I normally do the stop motion on a Tuesday. The production line takes about a day. This is why I can only upload the video by Wednesday. I do the voices and my brother does the piano. We try to do something of an original type of music. I do not even know why. It is best to avoid...
