Here's my latest piece! It's about seasonal princesses watching their sister, the ice princess; perform at a ballet recital! โ๏ธ๐ธ๐ป๐
This was a huge challenge because it originally started as a landscape format, but I couldn't figure out how to finish it composition-wise. I had to redo many different things in the painting to make it work. This piece won't have a step-by-step process because of all the changes I had ...

Here's my latest painting!
Iโve been inspired by old storybook illustrations lately, so I wanted to emulate the mood, story, and style in this painting! Iโm trying to take my time with my process and adding more texture to my work!
I also think this is the first time Iโve painted a full-sized dragon haha! Dragons are definitely my favourite mythical creatures! Theyโre just so majestic! ๐ฅฐ

Here's the process of my latest painting! This one took quite a while since I wanted to explore different textures and emulate the old storybook look.
I was very inspired by these paintings' fantasy themes, woodblock prints, and illustrative feel. ๐จ
I've always loved how imaginative and colourful they are. I admire the flow and decorative elements these v...
