(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...

Today, I did a silly new Hollow Knight parody. I was getting bored of making painting references, so I decided to reference a movie. In this one, I am mimicking the movie poster of the movie the Birds. The Birds is a famous movie by Alfred Hitchcock. One day, all the birds start attacking humans. They take breaks every so often, before starting again. In the world of the Hollow Knight, the equivalent of those aggressive birds are the Belflies. You first encounter them in the City of Tears.   They attack the player as soon as you approach them....

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 could make more, but that would eat away the time I devote to my books. For these paintings, I didn’t have butterfly references. I had to look up random photos of them in Wikipedia. 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...
