Going Through My Old Art!

     Welcome to another video guys! This time we'll be taking a look at some of my older pieces. Fair warning, it is a longer video (as there is a lot of art), so you might want to grab some snacks. Enjoy!




    Any suggestions/ ideas/ concerns, please drop them in the comments below and I'll be happy to view/consider and address them! Next week, I'll have another feature up. I hope you'll take the time to stop by and read it. Thank You for watching!

    Two other paintings I found that I didn't include in the video:


    This one is my absolute fave and hangs on my wall. Part of my zodiac concentration series, this model was a classmate of mine and she was a Virgo. Fun Fact: it was unintentional but the feather and the heart have a history in Egyptian culture as being a basis of means to confirm whether one was sent to heaven or not (if your heart weighed less than a feather, you were ascending). I will never sell the original (oil pastel, acrylic, watercolor, and colored pencils on matt board) but I may make prints.


This was another still-life project, but I wanted to make it weird. I don't plan on selling this for it has, since high school, been damaged a bit at the bottom of the canvas (some paper got stuck there and I'm afraid of peeling off the paint)

The Name and the Artist

I n the past, I was timid, quiet, easily overspoken. I gave an air of maturity, that I could claim, but that description no longer fits me. Don't get me wrong, I'm still meak, mature even, but what now lays underneath that veil also lies someone willing to change, to take courage, and speak up for herself and for the vulnerable mother that she is, that I am- unsure of where I should take my next steps in life as an independent woman, and to what direction I should travel in the journey to guiding my children. I want to communicate, connect, have fun and enjoy life to the fullest of my capabilities. I want to be unafraid, encouraged, and motivated. I want to be the best version of myself possible; making progress one day at a time.                                                         * * * Y ou might not suspect my timidness or my worries upon first greeting; I'm of Slovakian build with wide shoulders that make me appear intimidating and, paired with an overall thick bui

Discovering my Passion

       I understand how the whole "my passion found me" line seems like a total cliché but it does have its merits. In my 23 short years, I've only experienced true, soul-serving, focus-obsessing, work-encompassing passion once in my life. I've had plenty of interests run across my plate but nothing had ever wet my palette as much as art had.       I t started as a small flame and grew into an uncontrollable need to create and improve as I did so-- here is why I'd describe it as a passion finding me: I had been scrolling through Netflix, you know, as we often do, attempting to find a new show to watch, and I found myself stuck on this cute Japanese animation. It was the first one I'd ever watched, but there was just something about it that I couldn't take my eyes away from. T he lead, I found, was everything I wanted to be. She was kind-hearted, accepting, loving, a hard worker, hopeful; the ideal daughter and friend. Not that I wasn't any of th

Cute, Pretty and Pastel!

     * A uthor Tidbit* Happy Day everyone!! Wow, doesn't time just seem to pass by so seamlessly these days? It's already the day of our fifth artist feature! I know that doesn't sound like much when they're still are over 100 to go, but slow progress is still progress and should be celebrated all the same! With that said, let's get on with today's feature! 😊*       T oday's artist has a knack for creating the cutest designs, with a little humor tied in: allow me to introduce artist Tianna Almy .            I can't place the reason why but I felt the above artworks fit best with a poem: Pastels, pastels, happy yellows, greens, blues, pinks, and purples, jubilee! Colors so bright yet soft you see, within them, happy faces smile at me-- I smile in return, my mouth can't help but react; AWWW, how lovely are these, how sweet their owner must be, to draw such sights  into life, and bring their joy and words of wisdom, and humor into mine.      I' m
