I'm a painter from the beautiful West Indies. I love colors and textures. I started painting at age 4 and have kept doing it everyday.
Into the sun
into the wilds
The time to let all things dry and bond.
Those leaves are the rest of time in a rapper. A moment of space enclosed with a life print, laying in the sun to vanish. The darkness creeps in hours before my mind can grasp it. We are the epicentre. Paint is the epicentre. Ink is the epicentre.
madness
Inktober day 3
This one feels like home to me.
my Summer plans made it!
I have never had a green thumb really ever and yet my studio has kept these babies alive. I know it’s a cactus but I’m back at not killing them from neglect.
I just feel they are beautiful.
that is all.
Do you have studio plants? What are they? How old are they?
Inktober day 3
I’m happy this keeps going and really happy I’m enjoying it.

Seeing the sun undressed.
Let the sun in and greet her with a hot cocoa.
I’m finding it important to do little rituals in the mornings. They just start everything right.
The cats do it, the dog does it, why not me?
I enjoy the chaos of creativity but maybe I’m out growing that lost feeling? I think so.
meet me in the sleeping world next to the tire swing.

I’m so glad you’ve found me and enjoy my work.
Day two feels like a second bowl of cereal in giant globe.
By the by I figured out what to write in the art book. I think they will like it a lot.
The book
I think I finally know what to illustrate in my book. Not sure what to write yet but it’s progress. 
it came to me while trueing a wheel at the shop.
I haven’t given up on my only painting what I photograph myself but I’m no longer against using visual aids.

The build up
Inktober for most artist’s is exciting and often insanity for all of October. We see it as this often impossible task. So my secret is to treat it like just a fun drawing session with my brushes. I try to do as many as I can in one setting. I know those aren’t the rules but the hell with the rules. Life comes at you some days sideways. The idea that you have enough time to think and prep for 31 days is stupid. I for one have commissions to do in addition to Inktober that are important also. I’m sure a lot of us do. We are all very talented.
Just breath and promise yourself to try and that is what is important. If you are even doing it for a day then that is a big deal and I would love to see it. Leave me a link to your art so we can see it. Share with us.
I use my patreon all the time to share my mind, my heart and my art. Come and see.

I’m going to try to just use Sumi ink this month for Inktober.
Inktober 2019
It’s that time again that breaks the mind of many artists.
fear not life is yours to live and ink is my kingdom.
and so it starts…let’s see how long this one goes…
