Painting progression! My ADHD really surfaced, and I tried a lot of different versions.

From the first brushstrokes to the final glimmer of light, this piece evolved layer by layer. What begins as calm water slowly reveals the truth beneath the surface — a world drying out while holding on to hope.

Comfort, collapse, illusion, and inheritance all unfold in color and texture.

Honestly, the "scratch-and-reveal" technique is a game-changer. It's like a painting scratch-off ticket, but you actually win every time. Get a cracked-soil look by painting a light layer over a dark. Then, use a palette knife to scratch through the top, revealing the color underneath.

Finished! "What the Hail." Reflecting on the quiet moments after the chaos, even with a furry friend by your side. Hope you like it! 🐾 #FinishedArtwork #Hail #MexicoHail #TexasArt #GreatDaneAdventures #AfterTheStorm

Between last year's massive hailstorms inspiring my work and the hail hitting Texas today, it feels like natural disasters are always in the headlines. Just wanted to share how those events continue to spark creativity. #HailArt #WeatherEvents #ArtistLife #TexasHail

Inspired by last year's incredible hailstorms, particularly the feet-high hail in summer from Mexico and the widespread cracked glass, I've painted a new piece. It shows a woman and her dog calmly waiting for a bus, amidst towering hail and shattered glass.

"Denial's Debt"... once captured in still oil, now breathes with AI. 👀
