Because relationships are difficult at times

This one was a journey. Started with#2 matte pencil, then acrylic paint & color pencils, then some thin oil layers on top. First time finishing a mixed media in oil paint. I’ve used artist grade acrylic before, but these oil cadmium red and yellow, and cobalt teal feel like they practically glow! Having a blast with this dive into oil paint.

DIE-it

Dinners for beginners
Who eat late at night
Sipping up their supper but the plate's not wiped
Mama's getting thinner so the plate stays white

Breakfast is for winners
So their day starts right
Pez pills fill bellies filling sinners —
(Stimulating simulated)
Kill their appetite

Skinny fills the quiet corners of her mind
Coffee, mints, almond time

WASTE AWAY
WASTE THE DAYS
I'll be happy once I reach that goal of mine

Tip the scales in your favor
Nothingness ain't a flavor
No junk food those lbs crave her
Walk the thin white line

Did this sketch today, hope you like it.

Cheers,
Drew
