Life: A Work In Progress

It’s all about the busted pottery; detail from a new piece in progress @christopherpalbickiartist #acrylicpainting #acrylic #acrylicpaints #painting #paintings #paint #artist #artistsoninstagram #pottery #ancientpottery #relics #nativeamerican #happythursday 🎨🎨🎨❤️😃
A lot of artists only share images of finished pieces, which is fine I suppose, but I say to hell with that. I like seeing how crappy something looks while they’re still working on it . . . like this baby here which has a LONG way to go.
