New Year, New Painting. ✨

 


Day 1 of 2026 and the brushes are already moving! I’m kicking off the year with a whimsical, "kawaii" bird WIP for #Birbfest2026. This month is all about keeping things low-pressure and high-joy.


My first subject is titled "The Tiny Despot"—a chibi-style version of the magnificent Many-colored Rush Tyrant. Currently, the sketch is transferred and the background is set. I’m letting the warm glow of the golden gesso serve as my underpainting for this rainbow-hued "roundling."


I can't wait to reveal this completed smol painting tomorrow!


What are you looking forward to creating or doing in 2026? 🥂
