This is the colored pencil/mixed media piece I worked on during my last Picarto stream. Also in the future this artwork will used to announce upcoming streams. Sky Brush is hard at work at the table.

This is gorgeous! The only downside is that we can't see your expression. Is that deliberate?... ;-)

Yes. This is something of a parody of the October 1938 Saturday Evening Post where Norman Rockwell did his first self portrait of himself. Not the famous one he did later of himself looking at the viewer in the mirror. In the 1938 version you only see the back of his head. I thought leaving it up to viewer to wonder what Sky Brush is thinking might be interesting.

I had forgotten that self-portrait. It is, in truth, a very good self-portrait of an artist... there's lots of staring at one's medium and thinking like crazy, after all. :-)

Also the back view let's the viewer create their own scene in their head. Is that Sky Brush happy with the piece, intensely focused, smiling smugly, panicked, frustrated with it? Those are all emotions that I've experienced working at the table.

Only using two of three mares as your muses? RD may feel miffed at being left out...
