I've been following you for a while and I adore everything you post, but I particularly love your recent plein airs!! They're so expressive! Do you have any practical tips for plein air painting? Not necessarily how to make the image look right, just how to transport and handle your materials! Particularly for mixed media, which I really enjoy doing at home - but when out and about I always end up juggling a dozen different objects and the resulting mess discourages me from trying it too often :')

Thank you so much! This is actually a great question because dealing w supplies was always the biggest obstacle for me as well. What I brought with me this time was a little jar which had a lid I could screw on tight to hold my paint water, a ceramic palette with seven wells to mix different colors (I found this to be MUCH less of a hassle than palette paper which blows in the wind and makes a big mess), gouache in tubes, and my neocolors which already come in a really convenient tin.

I sat on a bench instead of the ground so I could set all my stuff down without worrying about knocking it over and the paint palette was small enough that I could rest it in my lap along with my sketchbook. It ended up working out really conveniently!

Hi! I was wondering if you're going to be selling your art book again. I wasn't able to get it last time, and I've been hoping to get a second chance. Have a nice day 🌈

Yes I’ll definitely be opening my shop this summer probably in June! I’ll post about it a few days before I open!

Hi!! I love your art, it's so expressive. I recently started oil pastels, but I'm quite a beginner. Do you have any tips? (Blending, details, etc)

Hi! So sorry for the super late reply I’m just getting to these! For oil pastels I like building color up in small marks - kind of like an impressionist painting. I don’t really blend the colors together by smudging them. Instead, I just layer them on top of one another and the colors will mix on their own. Sorry I don’t have better advice I just started using them this year myself so I don’t exactly know what I’m doing either!
