I love working in miniature.  That’s probably why I love LEGO and Nanoblocks, and generally small bits of bric-a-brac.  I like composing short pieces, and painting small paintings.

I’ve been reblogging a lot of my painting posts lately, so I figured, “hey, why not put all those posts into an edition of Lazy Sunday?”

So I did!  Not much more to it, but it’s been motivating me to produce some more paintings after a bit of a hiatus away from it.  It’s a fun way to pass the time, and I occasionally make some money from it, which is always a nice little perk.

• “Little Paintings” (and “TBT: Little Paintings“) – Ah, yes, the late winter of 2022.  What a great time for getting into a new hobby, when the nights are long and the DiGiorno frozen pizzas flow like wine.
• “More Little Paintings: Hearts and an Octopus” (and “TBT: More Little Paintings: Hearts and an Octopus“) – Valentine’s Day inspired some playful paintings incorporating hearts—and cuttlefish.
• “Even More Little Paintings” (and “TBT: Even More Little Paintings“) – This post laid out my entire oeuvre up to that point.  It’s a pretty good collection!
• “Painting Update” – I actually sold some paintings at my school’s Fine Arts Festival.  Pretty cool!

Happy Sunday!
