Just practicing

I've been sitting on the idea of cutting this out for about a week now. I started this on Friday and put it aside because I didn't think I was going to be able to finish it without ripping it... I came in this morning, after taking a few days off and looked at it and refused to not at least TRY to finish it. I tried my hardest, and learned that I might not have the right kind of paper to continue to make such fine cuts... and I might not have the right kind of blades either. Either way, I'm proud of the outcome, even if its not perfect. 

Turned the page onto something new

Most of my ideas are probably subconsciously stolen from other artists, but I'd like to think that I get the most inspiration RIGHT when I wake up (usually the thought wakes me up) or when I'm at the gym, lifting weights and gettin' super huge.

I think on this day I was at the gym and gave myself the challenge of cutting elephants out of one piece of paper.... who knows why I keep coming back to the elephant. Maybe its my spirit animal. Maybe I think too much about spirit animals. Maybe I just think too much.

I'm Never Gonna Forget That

My dad is a painter and has been my mentor through this journey of me learning my style and what I love to paint. He set a challenge for us to paint something of his choosing, then I get to pick what we paint next. He asked me to paint an elephant, and I begrudgingly said 'okay'. He still hasn't painted anything I've asked him to.
