Captain Reginald Hardbranch Hits His Mark. This fellow is the very first addition to The Beastly Bestiary. Each painting comes with an artfully housed artifact from the creature's life, and a signed Birth Certificate of Authenticity. Learning to make stop motion movies is really fun. :)

A mini sketchbook tour, featuring strange creatures, giant heads, and a bottle of rain. Made for my favorite person.

Some days you have to let the wolf inside you out for a little run....

Coming right up! I'm excited to be included in this awesome show at @poetictigergallery.bsky.social. ❤

Got a new fountain pen. :) I'm trying out doing a background in scribble mode to help me with my tendency to hold so tightly to control in my work.

Brand new framed mini paintings are up in my shop. :) liesechavez.etsy.com?section_id=1...

Unmasked.

On date night, Kris and I drew together and we chose a romantic theme, haha.

Just finished up some mini paintings for my galleries. A few oddballs left over. :)

It doesn't take much to make someone’s day. Just one thoughtful gesture. One moment of kindness. One line of encouragement.

I ran out of interesting wrapping paper for Kris Chavez' birthday, so I made some. 😀 This month we are living near Yosemite, so we have internet for only an hour a day, and no cell service at all. Guess I'll get a lot of painting done!

I have a new free puzzle up on the "Play" page of our website, pop over and give it a go! You can even change the difficulty or invite a friend to play with you. :) www.magicmirrorgallery.com

I feel pressure to make every painting perfect, or at least worthy enough to sell. I feel like I'm "wasting" good art supplies when I'm not focused on that. Trying, once again, to make art for myself. For fun, for pleasure, for therapy, for no reason at all. Trying. #art #sketchbook #arttherapy

I'm doing a one week only original art blowout while I am near my storage unit. Every painting we have is included. 30 paintings, all 30-50% off. liesechavez.etsy.com?section_id=1...

I'm going to give away 2 pieces of original art! If you want to enter, tell me which of these two YOU would choose by filling out the form below. 🙂 8c80dcef.sibforms.com/serve/MUIFAD...

There were SO many crows hanging out where we were staying last week, it was really creeping me out. I was expecting them to tear me limb from limb before we could move to a new town. #crows #birds #hitchcockian #birdwatcher #cat #birdhouse #anxiety #art #watercolor #fountainpen

Mood. :p I've been getting back into doing some ink and watercolors lately, after spending so many months working on a huge oil painting. #cat #attitude #ififitsisits #boxkitty #ink #fountainpen #watercolorpainting #art

Some people always seem to come out on top. Best of luck to the rest of us... #owls #onepercent #fightback #art #watercolorpainting #painting #cuteart

Some new 4 inch paintings on the way. A couple of them are weird. :) If you'd like a private preview, lemme know. #art #watercolor #painting #birds #surrealism #originalart

I want to believe that art can save us. I want to believe it can help us see into each other's hearts so we don't feel so alone all the time. #artcansavetheworld #art #surrealism #savetheplanet #oilpainting #love #earth #moon #arttherapy

I spent nearly 3 hours on hold with the Franchise Tax Board today, only to get disconnected before I could even ask my question. I just wanted to show someone my butt after all that. Thanks for looking. liesechavez.etsy.com/listing/1312... #butt #applecore #FTB #nsfw #apple #foodporn #ragepost

Sketch to render for an upcoming video game, Thug Version. Some of my baddies start life as a full blown painting, like those ReGrets (second from the top). 🎮🕹️ #indygame #videgame #game #messageinabottle #art #3drender #3d #illustration

I have a serious sweet tooth. Recently my favorite is chocolate covered coffee beans from the bins at Winco. It's definitely awesome for my ulcer. liesechavez.etsy.com/listing/1587... #sweettooth #cupcakes #badattitude #food #art #watercolor #funnyart #dentist #dessert

This new print is now available at www.LieseChavez.etsy.com Poppies may look fragile with their soft, delicate, paper-thin petals, but they grow where they damn well please. :) May they remind you of your own resilience & help you find a way to bloom, even when conditions are unkind. #art #poppies

I am currently working on a 5 foot long commission based on this one I did for the Elizabeth Hotel in Fort Collins. :)
