This was one of the hardest paintings I’ve done a year ago but it’s so satisfying to get all the details in! The funny thing is, I have very shaky hands but somehow when I paint it’s like all okay and everything’s fine. . . #raffleshotel #miniature #painting #illustration #art #building #watercolor #architect #sgart #singapore #artistsoninstagram #watercolor_art

Looking forward to creating a new series of artwork while sorting out the the last three years of painting in the studio. Many of our work are with the clients, most are stored away, and little are hung on the studio walls. maybe it’s time to put upper works and paint the walls of my studio. #lucindalaw #wildlifeillustration #nature #beeeater #birds #natureart #fauna #bird #birds #birdsofinstagram #watercolour #watercolour #watercolor #watercolors #winsorandnewton #watercolorpainting #art

090 Furious Fish. Despite my love for robots, many other things pique my interest and I enjoy taking on the challenge of drawing those that are unfamiliar to me. I don’t think I’ll ever get to draw everything I want in one lifetime, and that is a depressing thought. In the meantime, I’ll keep going.
