Artwork and Blog

Elisha Dasenbrock

Before I was in high school I didn’t even realize art was a career. I don’t even know if I knew anything about the masters. I’m sure I heard of them, I watched Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, after all, but I don’t know if I realized that was their actual […]

This is one of my favorite paintings I have done. I went to Thailand, a place I’d been wanting to see for years. In Thailand, when they say thank you, they place their hands in prayer position and bow slightly. I kid you not, I went on a 3-hour boat […]

The Story Behind Thank You:

That will be my posting style for the foreseeable future. Not because I don’t want to, but because I’m working on a very big project, literally and figuratively. You can read more about it on my Patreon site. I’m working on uploading a video there are well. Below is a WIP […]

Here are most of the paintings I completed over July and August. I have a few left to edit. The paintings for sale are all $125 and can be collected through The Bowery Art Gallery. They have a few other paintings too, although they sell fast, so hurry. Christmas is coming. […]

Latest Watercolor Paintings

For January, I painted 19 paintings. Whew. Only 2 were completely awful, in my opinion. It was exhausting and I look forward to beating that record the next time the challenge comes around. A couple things I learned: It is really difficult to find something to paint after the 10th […]

I am extremely excited to announce I am now a member of The Bowery Gallery in Apalachicola, Florida. Although, I am sadden to split with Cafe Con Leche, as they are so wonderful and supportive and in my experience really great to work with. They also sold two of my paintings […]

This Is An Art Blog, You Say?

I still haven’t touched the elephants and the owl. I keep them on my scanner at work, hoping to figure out what to do next if I stare at them long enough. Today, I brought in the giraffes and hummingbird to show a consultant to the company. I sat […]

Painter’s Block

July 26, 2013 in Art tagged Animals / Art / Elisha Dasenbrock / Giraffes / Owls / painter's block / Watercolor by Elisha

I have been working on these two paintings for a little while now. I’m not very happy with either one. The Elephants are just a little dull for me, but every time I work on it it seems to get more dull. I stopped working on them, hoping […]

WIPs

I have moved on to smaller paintings for the moment. Mostly for mental reasons. I wanted to feel like I was actually accomplishing something. The smaller sizes also allow me to experiment and fail without investing a lot of time. If I like something I can add it to a […]

I know what you are thinking. “Elisha, there’s not a lot of art on your art blog.” I have actually finished 3 paintings this year so far and I have a few in progress. Unfortunately, I’m having issues with my camera connecting to my computer so really good photos […]
