And now for something completely different…

Lately, I have been working on a few other projects that really…have no explanation. Going back to the illustrator roots! “Formally Primal” I have also been working on printing and stretching my own canvases. I am using Epson Exhibition Canvas Matte. The

Love in the 90’s

Apparently, I am hitting the nostalgia hard this month. It must be those looming taxes making me regress harder than if I were to cross paths with a bouncy castle. But I don’t care what anyone says- I absolutely adore

Growing up, I never really thought I wanted to be an artist (ok, professionally- lets not get into the semantics of being an “artist”). First of all, I am right handed and I didn’t think that should be allowed in

New Year Revolutions

Happy New Year, friends! I have a good feeling about 2013. Here are some things I was working on in December! I couldn’t post these earlier because they were Christmas presents… …I would like to pretend that is a good enough
