One of my fave things of 2016--being a part of this awesome event:

Equipped with Adobe mobile apps, these 16 illustrators, photographers and designers from around the world created unbelievable works of art.

Read about my experience self-publishing coloring books with Amazon/Createspace in this article from Tech Insider.

Finished another new painting! People always ask how long these take, so I timed myself on this one. 37.5 hours, and this is two 24” x 36” canvases. How long do your paintings take?? #acryliconcanvas #acrylicpainting #memphisartist #art #painting

I’ve been moving back and forth from iPad to canvas. Here’s a drawing I created on my #ipadpro in #adobedraw! #applepencil #adobedrawing_flow #digitalart #ipadart #timelapse #timelapsedrawing

Finished another #painting last night! 😀😀😀 Scroll through pics for #process. #acrylicpainting #acryliconcanvas

Our current happy #windowdisplay at the @cooperyounggallery! I had so much fun putting this together! #elvis #visualmerchandising #retaildesign #rhodamorgenstern #cooperyoung #cooperyounggallery

Finished another #painting!! I wonder which way I should hang it?? #acrylicpainting #art #acryliconcanvas

Another #timelapsedrawing working on my #ipadpro in #AdobeDraw! 😄😄😄 #adobedrawing #ipadart #applepencil

I’m starting to settle into a routine at the @cooperyounggallery and I’m finding time to make art again! Here’s a #timelapse #drawing I did yesterday. I’m working on my #ipadpro in #AdobeDraw. #applepencil #adobedrawing #ipadart #illustration

Finished these two over the weekend! You can find them hanging in the #cooperyounggallery! #painting #acrylicpainting

Why yes, as a matter of fact I am very inspired by my surroundings! #painting #acrylicpainting #wip #cooperyounggallery

Big thanks to @poriiana and @adobe for this awesome feature on the #Adobe blog!! ❤️❤️❤️😁😁😁 link in bio!

Work in progress. I made today a #painting day here in the studio/shop! @cooperyounggallery #cooperyoung #cooperyounggallery

One of my fave spots in the @cooperyounggallery! One of my paintings paired with notebooks, storage boxes and tin canisters from #orlakiely!

I’m organizing my fabrics for the shop and realizing how much I miss designing fabric on a regular basis!! These are fabrics I designed for Free Spirit Fabrics back in 2012, maybe? I can’t remember. Seems like so long ago! I really loved putting patterns together and designing coordinating collections. The @cooperyounggallery is taking up most of my time these days, and I couldn’t be happier, but maybe I’ll design some more fabrics soon! Btw, if you’re local, all of these and many, many more are available in the shop! #fabricdesign #patterndesign #textiledesign #cooperyounggallery

Some of the bright and happy #cooperyoung products I’ve designed for our shop! These have been so popular that I’m working on more styles now! @cooperyounggallery #cooperyounggallery #choose901 #memphis #shopmemphis #ilovememphisblog #ilovememphis

Artwork created for pouches (see second and third photos) for #Adobe to give away at their Creative Jams! I drew the artwork on my #ipadpro with the #applepencil. Apps: #AdobeDraw and #AdobeCapture. Really fun project and I’m so happy with the way the bags turned out! #adobecreativejam #creativejam #ipadart

We are sooooo excited to be hosting @jesstinsleyfineart here in the @cooperyounggallery this weekend!! I love her art so much! She’s the first artist we wanted to have a show in our space. We are crazy about her work! She’s super fun (and funny!!) and a total joy to be around and work with. If you aren’t following her, you should be! She does gorgeous work and is very open about her process and her artistic journey! And if you’re in #memphis please stop by Friday from 6-8 to meet Jess, see her work and watch a live demo! I’m also excited for you to see all of the work we’ve done on this new space!! #cooperyoung #cooperyounggallery #choose901 #ilovememphis

Don’t forget to follow the link in my profile to download all of these fun brushes to your Creative Cloud library! You can use these on your iPad in #AdobeSketch. Also included are some shapes for use in #AdobeDraw. The library is a shared library so you’ll find brushes from a few other artists as well. Tag me if you use them. Enjoy! #ipadpro #ipadart

One of my favorite parts of having a shop is designing all of the signage and collateral. I love these gift cards so much, and I’m happy to be able to offer them to customers— it has been one of our top requests! #cooperyoung #cooperyounggallery #shopmemphis
