Here is my “redo” of the hispid hare from a few days ago with a “deer foot” brush. It’s on a smaller piece of paper and it should have been painted on cold press or rough watercolor paper to get the full effect I was trying to achieve of the hare’s fur but it was still much easier to paint the fur using this brush. I’m looking forward to using the @princetonbrush #deerfoot brush on a new painting soon. #hispidhare #undyingtalesproject #watercolorsketch #paintingpractice (swipe x2 to see the original attempt) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj8id8WuKAF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

These are my watercolor sketches for day #11 of the #undyingtalesproject ( swipe to see the #undyingtales mythology behind the ‘Ohi’a Tree, a tree that is threatened due to habitat loss and disease in Hawaii. This tree with it’s gorgeous flowers and fruits grows up from the ashes of volcanos. ( This has to be my favorite topic of this month’s challenge - the tree is breathtaking and the mythology and actual facts about the tree are perfect for the skill set I have. I decided to post what I have so far and will come back to the topic later. ( I’m also still working on day 10 of the challenge - the Key Deer. ). #spmlaw #ohiatree #hawaii #pele #lehua #undyingtales2022 https://www.instagram.com/p/CjkydPrOeSm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This is for the #UndyingTalesProject I’m getting a late start and am sticking with watercolors instead of the suggested ink, because this yearly challenge by the artist @spmlaw (Stephanie Law) provides so much inspiration to me, besides bringing awareness to endangered species through art and mythology, that I’d rather participate. This post is for day #7, #PhilipineFairyBluebird This bird is #nearthreatened due to degradation of forest habitat. The #Tagalog people tell tales of the #Tigmanmnukan as a bird of #omen. To learn more about the #mythology to see more art, and learn more about this challenge check out #undyingtalesproject here on #Instagram. #watercolor #paintingtheskykingdom #inktober #inktober2022 #undyingtales2022 #endangeredspecies #artforconservation #undyingtales https://www.instagram.com/p/Cji53qAPduy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Hello here are my paintings so for day 22 (Long whispered Owlet - lives in the Andean cloud forest of Peru and day 23 (Gopher Frog - native to the Southeastern U.S) Both are endangered due to multiple issues such as habitat fragmentation. Swipe to read about some of the mythology associated with these two animals. One day I will paint these over again - owls are so hard! But I’m determined to master them. #undyingtalesproject @undyingtales #endangeredspecies #animalart #amphibianart #birdart #watercolorpaintng #artchallenge #paintingtheskykingdom #frogart #artofinstagram #longwhiskeredowlet #gopherfrog #frogs #owls #pitcherplant #carnivorusplants #andeancloudforest https://www.instagram.com/p/CVeOhvOr9TG/?utm_medium=tumblr

Here we have a young wolverine and a Southern Cassowary bird both endangered and posted for the #undyingtalesproject @undyingtales The cassowary bird I had painted a few years ago and I started painting the wolverine over a month ago when we first received the list of species for this project. Since that time I have figured out a way to paint fur that I prefer much more ( this took for ever and I’m not happy with it) but am posting it anyway. I’m not sure if I will be able to keep up with the challenge as I have some other things I need to work on and I need to get the giveaway up. We shall see will probably complete done I have some references photos already picked out for many of the animals. swipe to read the tales about these two fascinating animals. #wolverineart #southerncassowary #endangeredanimals #artchallenge #paintingtheskykingdom #artforacause ##natureart #watercolorillustration #watercolorpainting #etsysale #etsysuccess #instawatercolor #looktowardsthefuture #perfectimperfection https://www.instagram.com/p/CVMYIJVLtOv/?utm_medium=tumblr

Day 8 Prompt from The Art of Stephanie Law's #UndyingTalesProject - Tibetan Antelope. I'm calling this one "Theophane" as I was very much inspired by Stephanie's mythological link: "Greek mythology: Theophane was a beauty, nymph and grand-daughter of Helios the sun god. Poseidon, god of the sea, was struck by her loveliness. To have her for himself, he spirited her away to an island surrounded and protected by the cerulean swells of the ocean. Even there, her legendary beauty tempted suitors to come and seek her out. To keep the men at bay, Poseidon transformed Theophane into a sheep, one of many among the flocks, and took on the form of a ram for himself. The offspring of Poseidon and Theophane in these forms was a winged ram with fleece of gold. The golden ram was later sacrificed to Poseidon, and its Golden Fleece became an icon of power and kingship. The ancient Greeks wove this tale around a creature of divine and distant origins, and it is possible that Tibetan takin was the inspiration for the golden creature, or Tibetan antelopes, who are even to this day sought out by poachers and killed for the golden fibers and woven into luxury shawls."
