Sneak Peek at the Autumn Painting Winners...

Ugh it’s so hard not to share progress shots of this first tiny autumn landscape! 😬😆🥹😋 So I decided just to tease this extreme closeup of one corner of it finished.. but maybe it’s not super obvious which one it is?? 🫣🤫🍂🍂

A big thank you to all who voted!! I’m literally having so much fun trying to paint these the best I can so y’all will be psyched to help choose my art in the future too!

I think this one has turned out great! You like the little multicolored trees on the muddy shore? It’s a lot of tiny specifically directional brushstrokes that help the textures look so different 🙌🤎🧡💛💚💙

Now if you just simply cannot wait until next week to see the finished paintings on my YouTube channel, then make sure to subscribe to my newsletter (and check your inbox this afternoon if you already are!) because I’m showing this piece to those folks today as a special treat, just ‘cause I like to share art there first with my biggest supporters

Choose My Next Paintings - YOU Decide!

Hey artists, want to have input on some beautiful autumn paintings for me to create??

⚡️For the next 24 hours I am running a poll where YOU get to decide the two autumn paintings I paint in gouache in my new sketchbook. I took these photos on a recent hike here in Tennessee and the colors were just so glowing in each one I'm having a hard time choosing myself which ones to recreate🍂

I’m running the poll on YouTube (on my Community Tab) and Instagram (in my Stories and Reels), but you can also vote just by commenting on this blog post below - whichever way you prefer!

Your choices are…

Now vote below and tune into my Mid November YouTube video to see which two pictures got turned into gouache landscapes in my supa cute new blue sketchbook! Yay!

Yay, thanks! I can’t wait to see what y’all decide!
