This one was super fun, and fast, completed during the Fuse & Form open house last Friday. 9x12 oil on panel... better in high res, also I'm playing with a new photo montage app to better show the process. #art #painting #oilpainting #traditionalart #noai #handmadeart

New work 16x20 oil on panel. Had to redo the background a bit, turns out planning is sometimes good. Not sure the title-- Dropped Call, or ?
