You might think that’s just a play on “I see dead people” – okay, you got me, it is – but I do see some chickens! There’s a couple things I want to update y’all on, and to start us off is my first(-ish) painting series. (I say first-ish because I somewhat did a digital series, but we’ll cover that afterwards. Let’s just leave it at this one is actually more thought out, and that’s why it’s first. …ish.) Let’s begin!

a roving Bird will find me
Welcome back, y’all!
I hope everyone has been well, and I’ve got a variety of posts planned for you based on the past several months. There’s been serious reflection on who I am as an artist, how to forge my identity as one, and what my creative goals are at present. For how long art has been a part of my life, this journey is no where near over, and I’m both thrilled and intimidated by how much I have still ahead of me. Let me show you what I’ve got so far!

To start my blog off, I thought I’d walk you through the progress shots of my most recent painting. (Hint: It’s the one in the featured image at the beginning of this post!)
