I have painted a lot of birds before but this is my first time painting flamingos. They are such interesting birds. Their quirky shape and the way they stand gives them so much character and makes painting them so much fun.

I love buying new art supplies, it’s like a hobby of mine. In 2023 I was so busy, being a new mom, that I didn’t have much time to paint or try out any new art supplies. So instead I binge watched haul videos on YouTube and now my wishlist is a mile long.

I love painting animals. There’s just something about them that’s so intriguing. The picture that inspired this painting had a herd of buffaloes gathered at a dusty sunset.
