Heads-up Portland peeps: the stars aligned, and tomorrow I’ll be taking over the art wall early at Potland! 🍰
18 of my original oil pastel drawings will be available to ogle and bring home from then until the end of August (the dispensary has at least one fun parking lot party during that time, too, so maybe go check it out).
Each framed drawing is $55 (but if you had one in mind based on my posts, and it sold out, you can still find prints at HiddenStash.Redbubble.com).
This series is really special to me - not only has it been an exercise in consistency, and using a medium that I haven’t played with since middle school, but it was about halfway through these 18 pieces of art that my mom passed away. I was literally at the table working on the deer girl drawing when I got the call from the Montana sheriff telling me she’d passed.
Working on these started out as purely for fun but then kind of became a coping mechanism until the latest one was finished and I called it a wrap.
ANYWAAY tl:dr
