A little behind the scenes for my painting, “I Took These Bones Home With Me”. I always start out with a loose sketch in light colors, wiping and re-drawing as needed. Each layer becomes a little darker and more accurate, until I finally start to fill in large color shapes.

“Nested” (oil on Yupo paper, 24” x 18”, 2024)

If you can’t already tell, I’m obsessed with skulls and all their fun cracks and contours 💀

“Grin” (oil on Yupo paper, 12” x 16”, 2024)

The only time a coyote and a whitetail deer have ever been happy to sit next to each other 🦌 🐕

“I These Bones Home With Me” (oil on Yupo paper, 30” x 60”, 2024)

My personal favorite of a mini roadkill bones series, this one features White Tail deer, coyotes, possums, squirrels, and raccoons. 🦴💀 🦌
