🌿JapaneseTea🌿12x12 Inches. Gouache. Handmade Natural Wood Frame by @neverlost.art This was done for the Tea Room in Savannah a few years ago. I love how you can use gouache paint flatly or with lots of water for transparent effects and blending. I just added this original painting to my Etsy Shop, KelseyWilsonStudio. Right now I'm doing an end of summer sale with discount coupons and artwork giveaways🍃🍂🍁 #illustrations #Tea #landscape #conceptualart #foodpainting #gouache #holbein #canson #crescent #mountfuji #teafarm #teapot #scadillustration #cafeart #kitchendecor #originalartwork https://www.instagram.com/p/CEUZgayDjPK/?igshid=10pse99b95ts3

"Social Distancing" Painted in gouache. It's an emotional time for the global community. Uncertainty permeates our lives. I chose to illustrate this image to cope with feelings surrounding the pandemic. Its important to acknowledge negative feelings to have power over them. With that taken care of, joy and hope can have their turn. Blue sky is coming. . . . . #artuniteschallenge #isolationcreation #quarantinecreativity #gettingcreative #keepingbusy #creativequarantine #selfisolation #stayingpositive #stayinghome #socialdistancing #covid_19 #illustration #editorial #birds #sky #birdsonawire #community #humor #societyofillustrators #amescommunityartscouncil https://www.instagram.com/p/B-LEPXPjmAk/?igshid=1bmzhrjzboz4

Drawing butterfly specimens today 🦋 I love the complexity and powdery texture of the wings.

Attempting to preserve summer with this commission of a goldfinch on lavender. Purple and yellow are my complimentary color pair. Purple speaks of fantasy to me. Add in a sunshine yellow and you have a very cheerful piece. This also might be my best painted bird to date. I wonder if it is because it's the Iowa state bird and a symbol of my home. . . . . . #natureart #birds #painting #licensing #artist #plants #lavender #illustration #illustratorsofinstagram #wildlife #art #acrylic #paint #complimentarycolors #garden #iowaartist #iowa #statebird #goldfinch #gold #purple #green #white https://www.instagram.com/p/B2NLbawjdTf/?igshid=tg0r1qt9tm9j
