"We must rise and follow her, when from every hill of flame, 
she calls and calls each vagabond by name." ~Bliss Carmen.

This is my latest painting. I think of the poem 
"A Vagabond's Song" by Bliss Carmen whenever
I look at this picture. I had difficulty capturing the true
colours through the lens, but this shot got it the best.

                                                                       "Joy Anew."
I decided to try something new aside from my usual life-like paintings.
This is my first attempt at impressionistic abstract-like art. I am pretty
sure this style of art is done with palette knives and what else, but I 
made due with the few accessories I had available. It took me about
three hours to complete this canvas. It is painted with acrylic paint.

Emerge...

Emerge...

Hey y'all! I've finally drawn something to post. One of my very favorite animals
is a horse. They are such graceful yet powerful creatures, exhibiting grace and dignity.

Greetings!

Greetings everyone! I want to apologize for not having posted anything in a very long time. I must have inspiration in order to actually want to draw something, and I just don't have any ideas on what to draw or paint, so it's time to get my audience involved, which could be quite fun. :) 
If y'all have any suggestions on what I could draw/paint next, it'd be appreciated. I do draw mostly nature, people, and things like that, but any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks!

Girl with a violin. The violin isn't very good, but I think
the girl's face (particularly her eyes) portrays emotion well.

I've decided to add pictures of something I made. This is a duct tape, trifold wallet.
I got the pics for the faces from a wallpaper app.

I take joy in music. ☺

I like to experiment drawing faces by doing self portraits. 

A pic of a robot I found on a wallpaper app. I decided to draw it, 
adding my own little things to it.

I was just doodling in my sketchbook and voilé...(but the eyes aren't quite right).

Ballet Slippers.

 Here's a pic of a warrior lady I drew a while back.

A Post a Week.

Hi Everyone!
 I will try my best to post on this blog at least once a week. :)
This is a picture I painted fairly recently. It presents a pessimistic
view of the ocean. A sail boat is far out at sea, and the lighthouse symbolizes that there is hope even amidst life's storms.

I have an Instagram account, of which will be used exclusively
 for my photography. You may follow me @katnip_12.
