I've been creating grateful speedpaints for over a year and one thing I'm reoccurringly grateful for are artists & people who inspire me, and I've wanted to create gifts for those people who have given me so much through their art, advice, or just pure presence in my world.

To start, I chose Amber Panyko. http://www.missmab.com/index.php
She was the first furry artist who's style I fell in love with. She was essentially my gateway drug XD and Miss Mab was my favorite character of her many splendid and unique character designs.

As a teen, her art inspired me to push the envelope with my creature creations, outfit designs, and character/world building.
After discovering her art, I found more artists that created similar fantastical anthropomorphic artwork. It all started with Miss Mab.

I'm super grateful that she was my first inspiration to seek out this fandom. :3

1hr 45min speedpaint.

In 2016 I started journaling daily. Part of that writing process has been to write 3 things I am grateful for each morning.

I've been sharing these three things along with a speedpaint every Mon-Fri.
This practice has benefited me artistically as well as emotionally. My hope is, that by sharing these grateful speed paintings, you guys feel some of those good vibes too

Do you enjoy my art? Please consider supporting my daily creations with a print of your favorite piece: http://gratefulpaintings.storenvy.com/
