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

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
