This is a quick, not professional very opinionated, review of "The Orville" TV show. It is a show written by Seth McFarlane that is a scifi comedy spoof of Star Trek....that is the easiest was to put it but this show is more then what I expected! I have never watched Star Trek but that didn't stop me from truly loving this show! This show has a lot of inspiration from scifi but the show is it's own thing. It has compelling stories, hilarious characters, complex social ideas, and emotional depth. It is kind of like Futurama, it is funny but it knows when to keep a serious tone for those big emotional moments. And Bortus is my favorite character!

Here is a quick watercolor painting I did called "Killer Bee". In my artwork, bees have come to represent my thoughts and voice. Bees are essential little creatures who help with the balance of nature, and yet they can pose a real threat. Being an introvert I find my "thoughts/voice" to have the same push and pull. I want to speak my mind but I know that there are often consequences that follow. So I am constantly pushing and pulling against my own desire to speak freely and possibly hurt people around me, or keep quiet and give up my self to keep the peace. Do let me know if ya'll like the way this video came out and do let me know how I can improve in the comments below! If you have any questions about my artwork please comment below.

I thought for this video I would do a tutorial on painting a Neon Swan! What do ya’ll think?
