The original tiny monster that started it all
100 Tiny Monsters
In 2020 I started a project to paint tiny portraits of 100 monsters using traditional gouache. I have a friend who has a collection of tiny monster portraits, and I painted one for him. And then I painted a few more. And then I was having so much fun, I decided, heck, why not paint 100? Well, it turns out 100 is actually a lot of monsters!!!
I’ve learned a lot along the way, about myself and about painting. In 2025 I got really serious about finishing them and… injured my thumb from overuse. 😭 🙈 The project is on hold until I can wield a tiny brush with control again. A gentle reminder: don’t work through pain, friends!
Current Monster Count: 83
