Stretching for the new year, some dead men fingers. This is the fun bit where you tease out all the aspects you like from realism and you spin it out to abstract.

My final piece for my RISD class. It's so fun creating little bouquets of ocean bits, I've never noticed all the intense color just laying around. I have originals and prints up for sale on my website, link in my bio.

Im taking a Marine Illustration course @risd1877, not what I normally paint but I think of taking classes like hiring a personal trainer-I want to hone my skills and tighten up my practice. So this is my art version of "Check out my sick abs, bro"

Slowly but surely getting all my stitches in there. Swipe to see a close up of the dark blue. Makes me antsy to sit for so long, Ive been experimenting with pacing around while I sew.

Waves Liz? Really? By the ocean? What can I say, that shit is mesmerizing. Working on a large gouache piece, its almost too much so Im framing out the bits I like, redo, rework, repeat. #oceanmantakemebythehand #abstractlandscape #newenglandartist #capecodart
