Here’s what I’ve been working on the last couple of weeks. Lot of different techniques and styles but all are made from salvaged wood. Prices start at $30. Check out my website and let me know if you have any special requests.

Old subject...New Technique ( Half Crab Reimagined: 20”x16” acrylic ink on canvas)
I’ve done lots of “half crabs” because they are some of my best-sellers, but I got tired of painting them the same old way. I did this one by:
1). Sketching it out in pencil
2). Using masking fluid over the pencil lines, adding a few bumps with clear tar gel, and letting it dry overnight.
3). applying blue, green, and yellow inks (plus tons of water) to the surface
4). I thought it was still lacking texture, so I dumped some rock salt in certain areas, which is one of my favorite techniques
5). Let it dry and had my kids peel the dried masking fluid off, creating the final product. The white lines are the ones created when the masking fluid was removed.
