This was a very challenging painting day for my students and myself. Here I was thinking of treating them with an easy Bob Ross painting, when I quickly realized: he's not human. The morning exercises of painting grass and reproducing a water color detail with acrylics were just as challenging. I'm exhausted! . . . #highschoolartteacher #bobross #acrylicpaint #acrylicpainting #paintingexercise #artexercise https://www.instagram.com/p/CQRfZR7nAfq/?utm_medium=tumblr

I taught a crash course in colour theory and working with acrylics today. Made the whole lesson up on the fly! Just thought of commonly asked questions that I get in the classroom. I'm happy with how my example turned out! . . . #highschoolart #highschoolartteacher #acrylicpaint #sketchbook #colortheory #colortheorylesson #colourtheory #colourtheory #colour https://www.instagram.com/p/CQMPDnGnw9a/?utm_medium=tumblr

"Wood Hawker @beatemups " was my inspiration for today's drawing. The assignment was to draw a social influencer who has influenced your purchasing choices. Wood has certainly influenced which Nintendo switch games I buy. His videos are hilarious!

My last commission piece is complete! Voici "Gaston Lagaffe", written and drawn by André Franquin. This comic book was published in 1982. Out of the four reproductions, I found Franquin's line work the most challenging, but also the most satisfying to complete. https://www.instagram.com/p/CI3x_1BnjjA/?igshid=6bjslllbiu46

"Benoît Brisefer" is a Belgian comic strip created in 1960 by Peyo and published by Le Lombard. This third commission is almost done... I need to add some clouds of dust and movement lines, but I'm scared I'll ruin it if I do! https://www.instagram.com/p/CIq9inGhsvO/?igshid=3nn1gbiuibtx
