Oh, to be young and ready to work.

Been super busy learning to drive (yes, I am almost nineteen -- 23 more days -- and I still can't drive), picking up job applications, going to the gym, and hanging out with my mom (who also happens to be one of my best friends)!

I have had time, however, to paint a ceiling tile for Tijuana Flats, which is this delicious Mexican place I'm applying to. They give out their ceiling tiles for people to paint so when I asked for an application I asked for one of them! I have a good feeling about that place, btw. Anyway, here it is:

Señor Squid. Omg. I'm kind of obsessed with it. Like a lot. I almost don't want to give it back, but that is bad art karma!!! Have some details:


The colors are more accurate in the first picture, by the way. Not sure what happened with the closeups!

Anywaysssss, one thing that Señor Squid did teach me is that I'm actually not as terrible at painting as I thought! It turns out the quality of paint I was using before was just... not right. I'm not sure if it was a lower quality (it was more expensive than the ones I bought for this painting), but whatever! I've found a brand that works, so expect more paintings from me in the future!


I alsooooo took a WIP shot of the piece I'm workin' on:


Flowers and legs and tentacles, oh my! Still gotta shade it and finish up flower placement, then I can show you guys. Stoked!

Anyway, that's it for now~ Buy commissions; I'm workin' on em now!
