It’s my first art effort of 2023! I am seeking n It’s my first art effort of 2023! I am seeking new year inspiration, thinking toward what I might make this year. Been browsing for ideas - here and on Pinterest - and keeping my mind open to possibilities. So far I am sticking to my trusty @sharpie markers as primary medium and doing botanical drawing. But as 2023 rolls on I may experiment more with new mediums and subjects. Stay tuned! I also am exploring the option of Art Trading Card groups - as motivational inspiration to make and share my art cards worldwide. This here card is my first ATC on offer. #art #artist #artwork #artistsoninstagram #artoftheday #contemporaryart #contemporaryartist #contemporarydrawing #botanicalart #botanicaldrawing #sharpie #sharpieart #sharpieartist #arttradingcard #crozetartist #crozetart #crozetvirginia #naturelover #nature #card #artcard #tradingcard #drawing
Update: I have departed from my role of co-founder Update: I have departed from my role of co-founder of the @e9makers arts collective. I left the collective that I co-founded in 2017 in the E9 postal code of London’s Hackney of the United Kingdom in 2017 - because with my move to America in 2020 it has become geographically challenging to maintain my role. The collective remains active - so please do follow them! I will continue to make and share art with all here! So stay tuned to see what I make next! #art #artist #contemporaryart #contemporaryartist

Happy #FriYAY all here! This is an archive photo o Happy #FriYAY all here! This is an archive photo of the very first time I ever showed - and sold! - my art! It was in November 2017 at an art event held at @growhackney in London’s Hackney in Britain. These are my mini oil paintings - and I only have a few left from this collection. They include botanicals, landscapes & urban views. Having made art in various mediums off & on since my childhood - this was a big moment for me. I participated in this event with the arts collective I co-founded in 2017 - @e9makers. I was thrilled to make my first sale of two mini paintings to an avid London art collector! Now, I have switched up my medium to mainly be creating #sharpieart works - but aim to return to painting again someday. #art #contemporaryart #contemporarypainting #contemporaryartist #artist #artistsoninstagram #oilpainting #oilpaintings #minipaintings #painting #paintingsofinstagram #friday #fridayfeelings❤️ #fridayvibes #friyay🙌
