I got around to making a new Hollow Knight parody. In this one, I am making a reference to a famous Arthur Sarnoff painting. It is called Scratched at Dawn. 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. The bulldog’s wife is holding up her umbrella menacingly, while she pulls at his dog ear. The other dogs at the bar are laughing. They find it amusing that such a big bulldog is getting pushed around by a poodle.  ...

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...

Today, I got around to completing my butterfly painting series. I only make these watercolor paintings on the weekend. At the most, I can only make one watercolor painting a day.

I combined these butterflies with some of my flower photos. These paintings are not supposed to represent nature. There comes a time when you are meant to improvise an artwork. You can only get...

(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...

(Intersex Flag) For this Pride month, I made a bunch of pouring paintings based on Pride Flags. The first batch of paintings feature intersex, polyamory, drag queen and transgender flags. The intersex flag is the purple and gold flag. In its original form, it is a purple circle without a cross or an arrow. This is a relatively new pride flag, with a simple design. So, I decided to paint it. The polyamory flag is the black, red and blue flag. It has in the middle a pi sign. My pi ended up looking like a camel. (Polyamory Flag) The...
