First time painting a boat mural and I’m very happy with how it turned out! Thanks to my clients who prepped and sealed the surface and built me scaffolding to reach it. I stayed on the boat for a few days while painting and had a great time with some great people 🥃🌴 taken in Port of Tacoma by @mel.ghig

I had an incredible time at the Celebration of Fine Art in Scottsdale this year. I found a community of exceptionally talented artists who welcomed me with kindness, encouragement, and friendship. Thank you to everyone who stopped by, collected a painting, or offered support along the way. I’m already working on new pieces and I’m excited to do it all again next year! taken in Scottsdale, Arizona by @mel.ghig

I was very happy to stay out of the heat this summer with this fun mural at MPD! It was an honor to create this piece for the (90 ft) hallway, and thank you to everyone who was so nice and welcoming to me! Took me longer than planned and the detailed city part was definitely challenging…but I had a great time adding hidden little Medford scenes🤗 #muralartist #oregonart #roguevalley #southernoregon #thinblueline taken in Medford Police by @mel.ghig

Thanks to everyone who came out and supported me at Art in Bloom over the weekend. It was the first time I showed my landscapes and little framed pieces at an art fair, and it was nice to get some good feedback! taken in Medford, Oregon by @mel.ghig

I can't believe I've lived in Oregon my whole life and never explored the eastern part of the state. If you are driving Hwy 95 towards Idaho, make sure you check out Leslie Gulch! It is a bit of a challenge (2 hrs in on a rough dirt road and zero phone service) but the views are so worth it. We got a late start, so we didn't make it to the lake at the end, but the sunset on the way out was also stunning. Thanks to @zoe_paola_ for always being down for an adventure and creating the best memories with me 🤍

I was happy to finish this gallery wall for my mom before I left town. Not all the paintings are mine, but I think the layout turned out great. I painted the woman reading and St. Michael specifically for this wall. Some other pieces I had already completed (horse, nude, red-haired girl) also matched nicely.
