PART ONE:
I wanted to share my process. Learning to paint has been one of the most gratifying practices I’ve ever pursued and the education I’ve received from watching other artist on this platform is invaluable! I hope this video can help another emerging artist! I’ll upload the second clip soon-featuring the next several steps! I’m planing to have a start to finish video for this piece. Thanks for following along!

I know it’s a lot of blue-but I just can’t stop painting them!!! I think this is what it means to be in the flow state!
