Nudibranch du jour for #nudivember. This one,doto greenamyeri, is the weirdest yet. The giant balloon things are their cert and used for breathing and maybe digestion? Weird! And they can be cast off and regenerated. Weirder!

Dendrodoris behrensi, nudibranch du jour. I used colored pencil but watercolor might have worked better. Next time!

Today’s nudi:Chromodoris luterosea. Lovely purple and yellow blob. I used mostly watercolor with a little colored pencil and a little gouache.

Next nudibranch : Hypselodoris obscura from Australia. So much better than doomscrolling!#nudivember #nudibranch #seaslug #hypselodoris #oceanart #ocean #sciart

Next nudibranch, diaphorodoris mission in chalk and colored pencil. Weirdly, this one was harder to draw. Maybe a dark background would help.

Nudievember! I did a colored pencil drawing of Tambja affinis, today’s nudibranch. My favorite part is that I have to spend 20 minutes looking up nudibranch anatomy to understand what I’m drawing. #nudievember #sciart #nudibranch #coloredpencil #ocean #oceanart

Finished painting Licorice Creek. It’s oil on canvas and biggish, 40” x52”. Loosely inspired by the Licorice Fern Trail at Cougar Mountain. If you’re in Seattle on June 5, I’ll have it on the wall at our open studios at 57 Biscayne in Pioneer Square, Seattle.

WIP of a large waterfall painting I’m working on. I’m hoping to capture the feeling of being in the waterfall and the power of rushing water. It’s getting there! #waterfall #waterart #oilpainting #oiloncanvas #wip

Most recent version of this waterfall painting. I’m hoping for a vigorous explosive effect. I think it needs to be bigger. This one is 24”x30”

Don’t go chasing’ waterfalls…paint them instead! I’ve been trying to make this grayscale, but color keeps sneaking in. #waterfalls #oilpainting #oiloncanvastablet #lizewings #dontgochasingwaterfalls

Waterfall painting . I like to imagine the water molecules ping ponging over the rocks . #waterfall #oilpainting #waterart

Experimenting with ways to paint waterfalls. I like the contrast and movement in this one. #oilpainting #oiloncanvas #waterfall #waterart

Most recent iteration of this #wip waterfall. I like the red rocks in the foreground—they make the green water pop out. I think it’s getting closer! Maybe the paint fairies will come tonight.
