A brightly painted cardboard sign that says "Look for the Helpers." The background is light blue. The all-capital lettering is bright yellow with a red outline and shadow. There is a red petaled flower with yellow center in the upper right and lower left corners.
Slowly adding more work to my painting portfolio. These cardboard signs have been cathartic to make: danajuhasz.com/signs

Finished this portrait up last week. Does anyone handle commission work? Specifically portraits in oil? I have been getting inquiries and would love to know anyone's process who is willing to share.
Really pleased with how my first attempt at painting a portrait with hands is coming along so far. Still a bit of work to do but we are progressing nicely! #oilpainting #chicagoartist

Three cardboard hand-painted signs spread out on a table. The signs read: "No! Fascists! Allowed!," "Eat the Rich," and "Nothing About Us Without Us Is For Us!"

Back to #oilpainting after an 18-year hiatus. Are there any painters here to follow? Tracking my process and progress so I can reflect on what works and what doesn't as I figure out how to paint.

Interviewer: "Where do you see yourself in 3-5 years?"
My brain, immediately: "In THIS economy?!"
