Blue House, Alameda 5x7in, oil on panel. I’m finally making paintings my mom would actually hang in her house. I never thought I would appreciate, like or even make things like this but here we are. I’m old! Painted with @katerado and @franklinlei during this session a few weeks back. #mymomthinksimtalented #pleinairpainting #pleinair #pleinairpainter #alameda #victorianhouse #landscapepainting #oilpainting #artist #oaklandartist #california (at Alameda, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNLkNoKjmPG/?igshid=16sdsnhenw8md

I haven’t shared anything recently, but here is one that started as a plein air painting and finished in the studio. I have always hated plein air painting, and I still kind of hate it. With that said, I’ve been going out most weekends with amazing group of painters and artists to do some outdoor painting for the past year. It’s been an incredible learning experience and it has gotten me excited about painting in general again. I’ll be posting some more of my plein air efforts today his week. Special thanks to @franklinlei @artoflei for being the motivating/organizing force behind the whole Plein Air Crew! . . . #art #painting #oilpainting #mountainviewcemetery #oakland #goth #pleinair #pleinairpainting #oaklandartist #tombstone #death #pushingupdaisies (at Piedmont Funeral Services and Mountain View Cemetery in Oakland, CA Fd#2210) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-F2a_7F6e5/?igshid=1dj1mw7ztbe52
@lunaparkchalkart was dooope. First time using chalk in any serious type of way. Sold some prints, made a dope piece, got mad love. I think I’m ready for murals. ———————————————- Shout out to @pmillustrations for telling me about this and @bdeandra for the pics. . . . . . . #sketch #art #jcole #blackart #black #blackhair #afro #blackpanther #afrofuturism #illustration #space #spaceart #afro #blackart #blackhair #lunaparkchalkfestival #space #spaceart #instagramart #black #drawings #artwork #420 #sanjoseart #oaklandartist #blackwomen #oaklandmodel #introvert #blueart #supportblackart #dopeblackart #chalkart #oaklandartists #bodypainting https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnww–Yhskc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=u1nhpt65adzk
Ahhh…creative slumps suck… it happens, but when you are a creative, it’s just a big wall blocking an important part of your life. I’m happy I got to knock it down and get back to what I love doing. I also hella like these. ————————————————- . . . . . #sketch #art #watercolor #blackart #black #blackhair #afro #blackpanther #artistofinstagram #illustration #space #spaceart #art #selflove #avengers #afro #blackart #blackhair #space #spaceart #artoftheday #instagramart #black #drawings #artwork #420 #oaklandart #oaklandartist #blackwomen #stress #introvert #blueart #supportblackart #dopeblackart #acrylics #oaklandartists #selfcare https://www.instagram.com/p/Bl1rrWwhzbw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tknk9htpm0ao
