When I had a patre0n years ago, one of the tiers was a portrait commission. I still quite like many of them even if they're older!

Attended a painting workshop by the wonderful @JamesMcgairyart last weekend! I haven't touched acrylics in such a long time now and it was so refreshing, was nice to be in an environment with other people painting too, and had some great tips and conversation.

Been wanting to do some more landscape paintings, couldn't resist making something colourful and snowy! ❄️ (And as a Finn I can't make a painting with northern lights without slapping a fox in there, of course)
