What Have I Been Up To?
Well the title says it all. What have I been up to? It has been about a month since my last post. Blogs are hard to keep up with and when you get busy, it gets hard to keep up with the blog. Anyways, that is no excuse. I have been working on my art. I have a couple of commissions that need to stay private until done and received. I also completed a new painting recently.

| Best Friends |
This is the latest painting. I call it "Best Friends" as it seems that the two horses are sharing a friendly moment. The painting is actually based on a public domain photo off a copyright free website called Pixabay. I actually love this site for reference photos. It is a huge source of inspiration and worry free since the photos are free of copyrights.
Here is a link to the website for those that are interested, https://www.pixabay.com/.
The actual painting was done on my ipad as usual in my favorite app, Procreate. I love the rough texture that I used to create the background and then added a canvas overlay in the end to complete the feel of the painting. I believe that it gives an old style oil painting feel.
If you are interested in purchasing this painting as a print or on products you can go to my website,
http://beckysdigitalart.com/featured/best-friends-becky-herrera.html. I also have it up on Society6 here, https://society6.com/product/best-friends6341_print#s6-5748971p4a1v45. Society6 has a few more options for print products and they sometime have free shipping so it is worthwhile to check them out.
I have also completed another long term project. This one took me simply forever, but I think the finished product looks awesome. Here is the Peacock Zentangle Inspired Art. This one is also up for sale on my website, here http://beckysdigitalart.com/featured/peacock-zia-becky-herrera.html and on Society6 here, https://society6.com/product/peacock-zia-pxt_print#s6-8016433p4a1v45

Another project that I finished is my third installment of my favorite dog breeds series. Here is the English Bulldog painting all done. I like adding the breed name border. I think it gives a kind of harmony to the series and makes it collectable. If you are a bulldog lover, you can find prints of this painting on my website here, http://beckysdigitalart.com/featured/english-bulldog-with-border-becky-herrera.html and on Society6 here, https://society6.com/product/english-bulldog-with-border-qz2_print#s6-4797220p4a1v45. Note that I also have the same painting available without the border and name across the bottom.

I have actually been working on more Zentangle art as well and cant wait to show the final product. It will look great on the products that Society6 sells. I will also be opening a new Red Bubble and Zazzle store in the near future. I figure the more products that I can offer in the most places, the better. So stay tuned for my announcement for that to go live.
Well I think that about wraps up what I have been doing the last few months. Hopefully I wont be so lax on the blog posts in the future. For those that are interested, I keep most current on Facebook so you can find me there at, https://www.facebook.com/beckysdigitalart/?ref=bookmarks.
Thanks for stopping by!
