Hold Them Close

This year has been tough. Emotionally in ways I cannot explain to you. This past Friday we all had to face the ugly reality, that someone had taken 26 lives in an act that defies all logic. Parents lost their daughters and sons. Teachers. Spouses. Friends. My heart goes out to the Newton Community. […] Read more…

Illustrations, inspiration, What's new!

Beatnik Lounge Bait

Changing the pace a bit since I have final projects to produce, I did this piece for school. As you know I have been watercoloring more than using software to create art. This was created in Illustrator CS6. I had forgotten how easy software drawings are. Let`s just say Dave Brubeck was on iTunes while […] Read more…

Childhood Dream

I have been busy, creating sweet little puffy dresses and shoes. Learning how a simple layout is more effective than a crazy one. Yet through it all, I realize I am doing what I always wanted all along when I was a child. I draw for a living and that could not make me happier. […] Read more…

30 Drawings in 30 Days Challenge Starts November 1st.

I have been playing with this idea for a while. I wanted the equivalent of NaNoWriMo for art. I think to be able to write a whole novel in 30 days is pretty amazing.
