Mechanics I was contemplating posting this since it's kinda creepy but the way the colors flow it seemed appropriate. Jane is good energy though.

Here is another painting of the spirit that lives in my home who poses for me. I named her Jane. Sometimes she has a glamorous side. This is a comparison painting to the previous one.

Jane went through a water period a while back. (I had never painted moving water before this). She controls the paint brush and I am just the physical instrument that brings her to life. I'm so glad I can share these paintings here. Talking to my friends and family about Jane they make me feel crazy

I moved into a new house a few years ago and I felt the strange urge to pick up painting again (I mostly painted landscapes) and for the past two years I have been obsessively drawing and painting this figure (named her Jane) I can always feel her presence when I'm painting. Like shes posing for me

Jane always looks like she is passing through my paintings and this is the first time in the two and a half years, since she started posing for me, that I have caught her looking directly at me. I did happen to paint her in a different spot in my house that I've never painted in before.

Jane is in a mood today. Seems like all the Jane's are conversing with each other this morning. Last night as I was painting I kept getting spooked. It seems that since I've started opening up a little more to her things around my house have been dancing. Light especially.

4yr ⋅

Jane has been feeling very festive lately. She is manifesting herself in these colors and I'm not sure why. Before she would only reveal herself in blues and pinks. I'm liking this Jane though, shes so more light and playful imo.

Can't tell if I should keep tweaking this or call it finished. Something seems off.

This is a new Jane (posed for me last night) she has been in hiding the last few days and I'm not sure what's going on with her face atm. Any reads? I'm thinking of starting a subreddit for Jane so I'm not flooding this one. :)

Someone asked if I could do a painting in the same style with a different subject matter to see what the results were. Also Jane is now presenting herself as a white presence, almost like white light, where as before she was black.

4yr ⋅

Something is off with the crown. I known it needs shading but I'm not sure if I need to add or subtract flowers. Thoughts?

4yr ⋅

Jane has been doing some interesting things. Usually I sense her as a black presence (like a shadow) to the back right of me but recently she has been coming to me as a white light. I'm not sure if it's because I moved back into my studio but somethings different. She feels close.

4yr ⋅

I put this Jane over my bed and sometimes I forget shes there until I take a selfie.

4yr ⋅

So I havent posted a Jane in a while and that's because things have gotten weird. This recent painting I did doesn't seem to be a Jane at all. I'm not sure who this person is but now they have shown up. This entity seems a lot more masculine. They still pose like Jane but it is definitely not her.

4yr ⋅

Started as a crappy sketch then got serious. I love when that happens.

4yr ⋅

Did this bionic looking version of Jane. I call her Jane the Mechanic. She seems to be coming more to life in the eyes. I've switched studio rooms and her mood/feeling seems to be changing. I reached out to her (taking all the necessary precautions of course) and I haven't heard anything back :(.

4yr ⋅

⋅

Yeah she is getting darker for sure. Finished this today. I'm not scared but she is taking a turn for sure. I might take a break from painting her for a while.

4yr ⋅

I'm preparing for my first solo show and I wanted to do some lighter paintings (like flowers) but all these shadow people kept making their way into the painting. These guys creep me out but my husband says they might be resident of Jane's world.

I painted a roadrunner but I feel like something is off. I’m not sure what is off though. Any advice?
