I love the new one, Ryrin!

[Ryrin]

Thank you!!!

[LadyWordsmith]

Oh I love those, Ryrin!

I've mostly been doing illuminated pieces for our SCA Kingdom in my spare time. Filling in existing pre-prints for lower ranked awards mostly now that I got my bigger commissions completed.

I have managed to find one of them on my computer. lol. I will need to dig up the other (of my original works). They are both based on the same Manuscript (the Vespasian Psalter). 

[Ryrin]

I still want to do another pass on them, but i like it! This is only on a little 3x3 canvas.

Reference.

 

i sketched them out over a month ago, if thats any indication on how 'creative' i've been feeling.

(also, shhh, i shared these here before my patreon, so no tellign. ;))

[LilyElizabeth]

I really like the flowers one! Can't wait to see what the other turns out to be. 

[Ryrin]

The flowers are great, Arie.

Very nice blending work, Ryrin!

 

I need to paint more... that being said, tomorrow is the last school day. Not that it changed much, but i get to sleep in later now. XD

[Ryrin]

Thank you, Arie. The best thing about retirement is sleeping in!

Hi, Liitha! Please visit more often.

[LilyElizabeth]

That's my favorite one of yours yet, Ryrin! It's beautiful!

[Ryrin]

Thank you! I think I’m getting better as I go along. I’m sort of doing a practice painting of fishing lures for my husband. I’m thinking I like the fly fishing lures better.

 

I think the important thing is enjoying yourself. Painting is relaxing for me and I generally paint with a close friend every Thursday. 
 

The process of art is important no matter the result.

My latest painting:

 

 

"Infinite Corners"  Acrylic on Canvas. 20" x 20"

 

Lousy photo, though. I've got to get better. I'm becoming more serious about selling my work.
