Post Hurricane Harvey

A visit to The Lighthouse Inn at Aransas Bay and watching the dolphins sparked the idea for this painting. The Inn was rebuilt after being devastated by Hurricane Harvey.

I created this in Alyssa Zarate’s Women in Animation Matte Painting and Background Art for the Entertainment Industry Circle. I hope to use this in a personal project called “Guardian Rescue: Nera’s Story.” The mentorship circle with Alyssa has been a wonderful experience for me.

Collaboration

Another collaboration on matching styles with talented Tiffany Pham on sky and me on foreground. This was through Alyssa Zarate’s Women in Animation Matte Painting and Background Art for the Entertainment Industry Circle. This painting was inspired by the colorful flags in Market Square - San Antonio, Texas.

Mansions and Sunflowers

I almost forgot to post this. I painted it in honor of my mom. She loved sunflowers. I think I am going to put it in the personal project I have been working on.
