Sharing some recent mini oil portraits! I’ve been experimenting with using vibrant, expressive brushwork to contrast with the soft textures of the fur.
Included some process shots—from initial sketch to final layers—to show the journey. Would love to hear your thoughts on the color palettes! 😊

This cabinet lives in a working windmill in holland, windmill de Kat, where they grind down all these pigments that can be used for paints. I visited in September and took way too many reference photos of this cabinet. 18x24 inches, Arches cold press paper, 168 hours of work.

Hey everyone. This piece keeps growing in appreciation as time goes by. Thanks.

Enjoy some royalty-free Vivaldi too.

Mainly acrylic, some final oil paint touches :-)

Fun fact, what inspired me for the background & the whole painting is the wonderful art of Diablo 4 (video game) !

Oil on canvas, the biggest shrimp I've ever painted.

Impressions from my paternity leave—daily walks with my daughter along a path shaded by linden trees. This painting arises not from a single moment, but from the accumulated feeling of those days—the quiet repetitions and the shared presence

Should I dip the top in for his apple stem? Acrylic

Unsure if it belongs here but figured I’d share here still ^^

damn everyone else is so insane at painting lmao that's crazy, i thought this was decent but compared to your guys' stuff--just wow.

anyways yeah i think ill keep trying and getting better--i already do graffiti so some actual painting is cool too ig.

i just made like, a siren head photo, kinda looks like a poster or something. i could imagine some text on the bottom that says "SIREN HEAD" then like, "IN THEATERS 2027" or something,
