Dreaming Alien Blue Jellyfish Mermaid
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,...
Teresita Blanco Self Portrait Van Gogh and Gustav Klimt Style
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...
Pouring Art Disability Pride Month: Disability, Bipolar, and Autism
(Disability Pride Flag) Today, I got around to posting the flags I made for Disability pride month. I made three different versions of the disability flag. The other two flags are for bipolar and autism. I hope that you find my new artwork amusing and inspiring. (Disability Pride Flag) I first prepared the wooden panels by adding gesso to it. The layer of gesso had to be really thin. This allows for a smooth flow of the pouring paints. The bipolar flag is not the official flag. I just thought that it was an interesting design for it. (Disability...
Pouring Art: Gender queer, Bear brotherhood, Gender Fluid, Cuban Pride Flags
(Cuban Pride Flag) Today, I wanted to show you my last pride month pouring arts. The videos for these pouring paintings are already up and about in my Artsysister Youtube Channel and Tiktok page. So, you can go look at how I made these pouring arts. If you are new to this blog, let me tell you how I normally make my pouring paintings. First, I add gesso to a wooden panel. I like working with a smooth surface. It helps the paint flow a lot easier. (Genderfluid Pride Flag) This helps me use up a lot less paint. It...
Pouring Art: Nonbinary Flag, Leather Pride Flag and Random Oil
(Leather Pride Flag) Today, I wanted to show you the latest pouring paintings inspired by Pride Flags. I ended up making two Nonbinary flags. I lost track of which ones I had already made. So, this is why I made two of those flags. The other flag painting features a Leather Pride Flag. I added the heart at the end. When the flag dried up, the black completely swallowed up the heart. The pouring mediums makes the paints too transparent. (Nonbinary Flag) So, never add light colors on top of dark ones. The dark colors will completely swallow up the...
