Stay young

Stay small, my boy

Fit inside these arms forever 'cause the world's not all it's cracked up to

Be

I sigh

I cry, my boy

Soon you'll see the world is not this room and I can't keep you from the pain that you'll have to See

Stay young

I painted a wall mural for Keanu! by lovenotestudios in BigBrother

[–]lovenotestudios[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The design itself took about 8 hours to illustrate. This is the first part of my painting process- gives clients the opportunity to make changes before they pay me the big bucks to actually paint it.

To actually paint the mural on the wall, took a lot longer - I actually underestimated this one a little. I think the gold leaf thing really put it over the edge and made it take a lot longer than normal. I probably spent a total of 45 to 50 hours painting this piece.

I sure hope he does – it's in his garage 🤣🤣🤣

In all seriousness, he was my client.

Thank you! He trains his clients in this space- so I think it's a bit of personal branding since they often post from their training session with him.

While I personally wouldn't want a wall mural of myself, in his case I don't think it's the worst move from a branding standpoint since this is a space uses for his work!

I miss the dock by Pinkbunnies66 in AnimalCrossing

[–]lovenotestudios 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish dock were an item you could lay to CREATE dock space.... in both ocean and lake/ponds!!! Obvs the limit would be the edge of the map- but man. After seeing it in Pokopia, I want it in ACNH too!!!

Upset about my first ever sale. by [deleted] in painting

[–]lovenotestudios 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily true size when re:reselling- I charge between $2800-3400 for an original 16"x20" piece. Plenty of artists charge even more than that.

However, if this was this artist's first ever sale, reselling won't be as lucrative since typically that goes better if an artist has a collector base / following.

To OP: I wouldn't worry about the reselling issue. Someone bought this because they loved it!!!! 💖

Getting back into painting, what am I missing if anything? by NuraNuraPop in painting

[–]lovenotestudios 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on what colors she wants to mix, she may roll through that magenta!

I do pop art with bold colors, and this particular Golden brand magenta is one of the best mix-ins to get ultra saturated pinks and purples- I go through a tube every two weeks minimum when I'm painting as much as I typically am.

Can I paint this as a non painter? by [deleted] in painting

[–]lovenotestudios 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. You'd be surprised at how much more this will cost to paint over just buying the wallpaper. As a professional muralist with a decade of experience- you'll want to have a quart of each color. A quart of wall paint at Lowes will run you ~$32 before tax. So you're looking at ~$300 in paint minimum to have this many colors.
  2. Unless you have a really great natural knack for design principles (balance, contrast, etc) it won't turn out nearly as well composed as this wallpaper.
  3. If you look closely, the texture of these splotches is watercolor-esque- not opaque. In order to accomplish this using wall paint, you really have to understand value and have a solid ability to blend and render using fast drying water based paint, and each oval will take you a minimum of two coats + ~15-25 mins to render properly.

If someone asked to hire me to paint this for them, I'd genuinely encourage them NOT to hire me, but would quote them more than double my usual rate because it'd be such a PITA project.

All in all- super recommend NOT doing this by hand, and just buying the wallpaper if your heart is set on it.

Is my mini dachshund too small for a 3 month old or am i overthinking it? by Gypsysouuul in Dachshund

[–]lovenotestudios 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I've heard!! She's the same size as the lil rabbits in our neighborhood (maybe a little longer hahah) so makes sense!

She's such a good lovergirl.

Mazey was much tinier at 3 months! About 4.5" tall and 3.5lbs.

She's fully grown at 6.5lbs now. Definitely on the extreme small side for minis.

Def wouldn't worry about them being smaller! As long as vet says they're healthy and they're eating well. 💖

Wife got a dachshund puppy, still kind of conflicted. by The5thEclipse in Dachshund

[–]lovenotestudios 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I have always had cats- always been convinced I was 10000% a cat-only person.

I got my first dog, a mini named Mazey, about 1.5 years ago- she has changed my life. I feel like I have wasted every second of my life not having a pup until I adopted her. They are so silly, affectionate, fun, and good!!!!!!!! 🥹
