Do yourself a favor and check out this fantastically illustrated book by Katrina van Grouw. I love it so! Birbs everywhere!
Ballast Point Victory at Sea
I know I just posted about a Ballast Point beer with a skeleton and his parrot, but here’s another! Victory at Sea is “porter with coffee & vanilla” and it’s pretty much that. Fairly smooth, but it’s an Imperial so it’s not for the lighthearted. I mean, just look at the art!
Also I like it because the title reminds me of this comic. Very NSFW. Please don’t click on it if you’re my Ma.

This is a tiny still life of an opossum skull. My sister and I found it in our Grandma’s barn. I cleaned it up and gave it to her for Christmas, like any loving sister would. I painted it first to try some new oils I got (and to keep the memory alive I suppose).
Bye 2015!
Furiosa – fan art homage to my favorite movie of all time
2015 was a good year. I was able to focus my art by doing more still life practice and background work, and I really got into the vulture culture/skull collecting community. I appreciate all of you – artists supporting artists, collectors, and the helpful and friendly vultures I’ve met. I hope we all have an awesome 2016!
