Texas ‘Delft’ plates in progress. I made the cowboy plate (slide to see) over a year ago and have been wanting to paint a full set ever since. I’m going to clean up and repaint his design. More pictures soon. #instaartist #instaartwork #porcelain #painting #porcelainpainting #delftblue #delftblauw #texas #illustration #cowgirl #vintagecowboy #vintagecowgirl #wildwest #howdy #martimajor #plates #handpaintedplates #handpainted https://www.instagram.com/p/B8aV8Sxht9o/?igshid=1gcurptqpxdsd

Another two-color pencil sketch, this time from a James Whistler portrait of Théodore Duret. #prismacolorpencils #verithin #jamesmcneillwhistler #portrait #drawing #sketch #martimajor https://www.instagram.com/p/B5rQXQ-BS1H/?igshid=ej1reoxnhmy3

Went a-sketching at The National Gallery in the Dutch section. Having the option to go there at any time makes me somehow feel I have been granted ‘ownership.’ It’s the most welcoming feeling. Thank you, federal government! 🥰 It really is a gift. #sketching #dutchart #nationalgalleryofart #verithin #prismacolor #martimajor https://www.instagram.com/p/B5lWznUBusY/?igshid=1by9yrkczj76r

Inktober no. 2: I planted sunflowers this year and they attracted a lot of bees for the usual reason, but there were always a lot of bees, wasps, grasshoppers and ladybug napping on them. They’re very much bug hotels. #tranquility #inktober2018 #inktober @jakeparker #bees #sunflowers #garden #nap #martimajor https://www.instagram.com/p/Bof8CxygTFW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tbwcbtqpp15c

Happy Thanksgiving! My four year old and I made this family in cheery winter clothes tonight. She insisted that the baby wore a mask. #paperart #marker #winter #family #colors🎨 #martimajor

Experimenting in Photoshop. Bless them for putting in the new Kyle brushes. #adobephotoshop #painting #colors #experiment #martimajor

Doggy experiment! #dog #reading #doodle #martimajor

You know those cartoons where an ostrich or stork swallows something and you see the shape of it going down? Well I feel like a big gawky bird that swallowed a cactus section and it got stuck going down. Fooey on being sick. #sorethroat #grumpypants #inktober #inktober2017 #drawing #sketch #martimajor
