I recently came across this wonderful Dorothy Draper quote, “I always put in one controversial item...it makes people talk”. In English designer Rita Konig’s case, she has Sidney, her Hartebeest head peering down at less controversial items. There is a framed poster that says “Love” (no argument there); and a poster that admonishes us to “Drink More Gin” (well regular dosing DID keep the Queen Mum alive to age 101!)...but ‘Sidney’, he raises some issues. Still and all, I love the notion. I personally believe in ‘peace’ globally, nationally, and civically, but around my dining room table I sometimes like to throw a teeny tiny ‘explosive’ just to get the convo started. (My children can be heard groaning, “She HAD to go there???) Soooo you can just imagine my delight when I came across Dorothy Draper’s decorating genius! (P.S. I took the liberty of making Rita Konig’s walls ‘grey poupon’ rather than pale pink). #interiordesign #dorothydraper #ritakonig #english #hartebeest #controversy #love #drinkmoregin #queenmum #peace #windsornewtonpaint #utrectpaint #gamblinpaint #mgrahampaint #dailypaintworks #pamelachoffmeister

Prayer. 36 x 26cm watercolour. 。 This was rather spontaneous, I didn’t really plan much and kinda just paint 😅. Guess it’s not that bad, but definitely could have been better with some planning 😅🙈. Happy Sunday everyone! 🤍 Pic ref by Artem Beliaikin 。 #contemporarywatercolour #spiritualart #artvisuals #watercolourillustration #arthelps #hinduart #balineseculture #watercolourartist #archespaper #mgraham

Going on a collage weekend was the perfect time to find someone to loan me pliers to open oil tubes I haven’t touched in 2 years. And I’m going to let this painting be, because I really do feel like a mother fucking sorcerer. Throwback to kaitor’s wedding with some ridiculous chalkboard signs with strakerd headtotoe206 and brockrobin1. Oil on linoleum is perhaps the bestest butteriest painting experience I’ve ever had. If I was only ballsy enough to carve into it now 😬 FYI I have one eye that’s smaller than the other in real life and I think it’s even the right eye . Thank you pushpullseattle for so many brushes #selfportrait #oilonlinoleum #mgrahampaint #oilpainting

Today’s frantic paint from life was a skull and a lego Mandalorian figure. Both were a bit of an overstretch in 20 mins, more like 30 each and still not right but that’s why I’m practicing eh. . . . #gouacheillustration #gouache #gouachepainting #gouachesketch #gouacheart #dailypainting #study #painting #painting🎨 #paintingoftheday #paintingoftheday🎨 #artistsoninstagram #artist #sketch #watermedia #paintingfromlife #paintingfromobservation #sketchcollector #sketchbook #sketchbookart #sketchbookpainting #watercolor #watercolorpainting #gejart #mgraham #winsorandnewton #winsorandnewtongouache

I recently had a magical moment with a male and female nut hatch on a snag. I was sitting quietly in the forest working on a painting when They flew onto the very snag I was painting peri was painting. I got out my binoculars and watched them Pier into the cracks and crevices along the trees body. The male had a seed in his mouth and was doing the nut hatch thing of pounding it into a crack to get it open. I named this painting that Nuthatch Dream because I created it in the studio from memory leaving the elements very simplified and bold. I decided to be experimental with the framing of this one. It's the first piece I've ever glued to a panel and sealed with dorland's wax medium. The ground on the panel was created with milk paint made from scratch using kaolin clay and whiting as the pigment. I was really pleased with the overall finished piece. It's currently on view at my exhibition Wild Water at riveroaksart #robinwhitfieldstudio #watercolor #watercolour #dorlandwaxmedium #archespaper #mgrahampaint #milkpaint #noglass #nuthatch

🟥 34/365 HOW DO YOU USE RADIATING LINES⁉️Let’s get a discussion going. Today let’s discuss how you can use radiating lines to frame the focal point of your painting. Today continues our discussion on compositional arrangements made popular by Edgar Payne. Be sure to check the previous posts if you want to learn other compositional arrangements. Radiating lines are another very popular landscape composition style. As we discussed with diagonal lines, it’s not exactly a clear defined line, but is more of a radiating group of shapes or negative shapes. For example, let’s say you have a small cottage as your center of interest in the landscape. You might be able to use a small path leading to the house as one of your lines. The horizon may also be a line that radiates from the focal point, both left and right. Perhaps a tree branch points in the direction of the cottage. And maybe you have cloud shapes leading toward the house in perspective. The key principle is to surround your focal point with shapes that point back subtly to where you would like the eye of the viewer to go. Have you used this composition style? Tomorrow: The Triangle. And remember: It’s as easy as 🔤(Always Be Creating) Your friend, Bry ————————————————————— 🎗Tap the ribbon (bottom right) to save this tip ————————————————————— 🟥Turn on post notifications to never miss a daily tip and to bypass the algorithm.

When I was mourning my friend, this ladybug landed on my hand at the studio. I grabbed a pencil and sketched it out on theis panel. She flew away and then I made the 30 timelapse from memory, which is in my reels. I'm not sure if I believe in spirits or reincarnation or anything. But it was comforting to hang out with this little bug for a few minutes.

louis_dibiccari of creategalleryandcocktail commissioned this painting of easternstandard for the owners who closed the restarant this past year. Here is why it meant so much to so many: "Eastern Standard was where our generation of restaurant people went to gather. It was capable of balancing a Red Sox bar crowd with special occasions happening in the dining room. It's where we went for birthdays, anniversaries, going away parties, etc. They were the first real nationally recognized cocktail bar in Boston. It birthed some of the best managers, chefs & bartenders in the city." Needless to say it will be missed. My wife thinks this painting will be famous one day. Swipe to see the painting framed and cradled by the ES people.

Watercolour painting inspired by vialsss music video for her song Pillow Talk. Scroll to see a screenshot from her music video and also more pics where the gold shines! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Vials is an extremely talented make up artist, singer and dancer with amazing long ass nails! 💅🏻💕 I love her style and personality. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When I watched her music video I couldn't help sketching the Snake lady in my style. It's a really cool concept. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #artistsoninstagram #shesvii #mgraham #paulrubenswatercolorpaper #danielsmithwatercolors #metallicwatercolors #acuarelistasunidas #weirdpainting #bizarreart
