Stuck her in front of my treadmill to figure out the next step. I’m tempted to leave her as is. I love the rawness and subtle muscle. It’s extremely tricky To know WHEN to stop as an artist. I’ve ruined pieces before. My best advice to my daughters and budding artists is put it somewhere you can contemplate and think about it. Natural light is best. Sometimes it can be months before it hits you. Work on other ones while you wait the “click”. #ballerina #ballet #tutu #painting #figurepainting #figuredrawing #femaleform #art #interiordesign #losangeles #newyork #gallery#femaleartist #dancer

Finished the rework of this 48x48 abstract Koi.Those who know me, know I’m obsessed with Koi fish. I have small ones but I love to go to the Koi Farm and just watch the big ones swim. So beautiful. Graceful. 

Commissioned whale painting

So this piece he wanted to depict a story of their fight for survival. It's still a few weeks to completion but here's my progress pics
