About to head to the store, then realized I still had my apron on -- artist nerd stuff.

It is not the art. It is what comes to us through the art.

CS Lewis said it best.

Studio shoes. Thank you, Birkenstock!

Great start to me. Others say it's already done

Too Small??

When you try out one of your largest paintings in a client home, and it is too small!! Grateful she was patient to wait for a commission!

This is my dog, to a tee.

Painting together!

Only time I’ve ever actually shared a canvas - with my friend, Kaitlin Rose (check out her work!). She and I have painted a few pieces, sharing the same canvas. So fun!

I get to come here every day! My MDX had its moment of fame, the one with the AU Mom sticker on the back window.

I love it when Deborah Bass from Providence Gallery loads up a painting to deliver to a client!

She titled it "Big-Ass Poppy"

Painted in honor of Sydney Gaylord. If you were fortunate to know her, you know exactly what I mean.

Per Andy Braitman

“The paint should be thick enough to hold your palette knife.” Best times in his class. he actually referred to a bush in someone’s painting as Cousin It. Genius.

I swear this is what Aslan looks like.

Chronicles of Narnia by CS Lewis; favorite books, ever. When Aslan meets Jill at the creek in the wood, and she asks him to step aside so she can get a drink. “I’ve swallowed up girls and boys, kings and emperors, cities and realms,” said the Lion. It didn’t say this as if it were boasting, nor as if it were angry. It just said it…. “There is no other stream,” said the Lion.
