I made a new background for my Doll theater. I went for an Art Décor feel. I painted the middle yellow and the other sides red and blue. Afterwards, I added some stylized patterns into the mix. I made certain to integrate yellow in both the blue and the red panels. This creates a cohesive look for the background. In the middle, I painted a stylized tree. The tree is inspired on Gustav Klimt’s works. So, if it looks familiar, this is the reason. All in all, it was an interesting effort. The backgrounds are not meant to steal attention...

I made a new background for Doll Theater. This is just what I call my bjd doll photoshoots. I went for a bit of a vogue type of look. I started by making black lines. I used blue tape to make the perfect black lines. I added a bit of a splash spray effect to give if a more galaxy look. When I felt that there was something missing, I added glitter. In the sides, I made some heart shaped glitter patterns. In the middle, I did my palm prints. After removing the tape, it was time to add the...

Today, I wanted to show you my latest pouring painting. It was done with neon colors provided by Gencrafts. I am going to post a photo of the acrylic set I used to make the painting.

Getting that nice strong, pink hue is a bit of a bother to mix. So, it is convenient that this set already has the Barbie Pink color already mixed. The first thing I did was prepare my wood...

Today, I wanted to show you this mermaid painting. I have a thing for Jellyfishes. I draw them from time to time. If I am not drawing them, I am utilizing their color palette. Anyhow, I got from Gencraft some acrylic paints. I did a demonstration video of the types of paintings that you can do with just 25 paints. This is the influencer drawing that I made to promote their paints. Above, I will post a photograph of the set I used to make this painting. Now, it is time to talk about the actual artwork. I used paper,...

acrylic, art history, painting, self portrait, teresita blanco, watercolor -

Today, I wanted to show you two self-portraits I made over the weekend. In the old days, Self Portraits was a way for artists to promote themselves and their skills. In the spirit of that tradition, I made two self-portraits. The first one I made it Van Gogh style. I have a lot of similarities with Van Gogh. I came from a big family that suddenly felt like giving me the cold shoulder. I have a Theo and a nice mother to boot. My big brother Fernando is my Theo. He has been supporting my writing and my artworks since...
