Hi! I'm Ana, traditional artist from Brazil. I recently started drawing again after a 13 year (or 15?) hiatus when I saw that meteor ducks trend and decided to try it. So far I have painted more than 60 small paintings after that. I'm having fun and working hard to regain the skills that I lost.
Good morning!
I started a second painting, made a little progress on the first one and tried an oil bar for the first time, really nice. :)

Well, I'm starting my first painting series, finally.
I ordered some raw canvas and other supplies and I'm making some paint, finding usable walls because I'll paint on unstretched canvas. Can't wait to start, even though I'm not that confident.😅

Completed the second painting for my mother. 😊
Watercolor, 70x100cm.
She liked both so now I'll order the supplies for framing them.

Finished the first jaguar painting for my mother. This is my first large watercolor (70x100cm), used up all my indigo full pan.😲
For the next one I'll use payne's gray.

I've completed the walls and ran out of ink, so I'll finish the challenge in watercolor. My mother asked for a large jaguar drawing so instead of the final 8 animals I'll make 2-3 jaguar drawings for her to choose. I'm working too fast so I'll slow down hoping at least one will be decent.

Made this wall thing to display the drawings so I can see them all together, missing only one portrait oriented one to fill the first wall. :)
