Teresita Blanco Self Portraits Watercolor Andy Warhol and Frida Kahlo Style
Today, I wanted to show you my latest watercolor projects. I like to post my portraits in pairs. It gives the folks plenty to look at. The first painting is based on an obscure Frida Kahlo painting. Frida’s self-portraits where all about expressing herself. The originally and symbolism behind her work is the main reason why she became famous. When I was in Primary School, the art teacher gave us this assignment. She told us to mimic the style of a painter. The first painting she had us mimic was a self-portrait done Frida Kahlo style. She gave us...
Alcohol Ink Art: Red Droplets, Neon Purple Cascade and Blue Jellyfish with Pixiss Supplies
Today, I wanted to show you my newest art projects. I got a little bored of pouring paintings. So, I decided to change it up a bit. I got in the mail some pixiss ink supplies.

With enough practice, I am certain that I am going to be able to make some amassing ink paintings. In this blog, I am going to tell you everything that I learned from my first...
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.

(Disability...

The wife of one of the dogs went to pick up her husband at the bar. He has been playing Pool for far too long. He has work tomorrow.

They find it amusing that such a big bulldog is getting pushed around by a poodle. ...
Happy Fourth of July Pouring Art
A few days ago, I got around to making some new pouring arts. I made them themed after the fourth of July. The first one features an American flag. The other two are based on fireworks. I added glitter to the fireworks paintings. I didn’t do too much gimmick to the American flag. I wanted it to maintain some hints of its original look. The paintings changed a lot as they dried. Depending on the pouring mediums is how much the paint flows, when it is sitting down. My pouring paints usually take an entire day to dry. I...
