The Multitudes 04/14/2018 As per my last post, here you have it, my new design for the multitudes. Right now I just sort of refer to them as "The babies". I wanted to make something so cute that I would squeal over it. And these did the trick. I have been very busy in every aspect of my life. It does not help that the weather is so dreadful. While everyone else around me finds the warmer weather to be appealing, I begin to feel depressed. For me warmer weather means constant allergy medication and hiding from the sun.

Blogging isn't my best skill 03/26/2018 When I started this blog I had grand intentions. However, creating art takes much time. So much time that I even resorted to using a stock photo of this pigeon for my blog post photo to save me the time of having to upload an image of a sketch. This amused me because it was in the "Night Life" category. I imagine this pigeon gets dolled up and hits the clubs when we're not watching. My last show at the Columbus Arts Museum with Craftin' Outlaws was phenomenal but with great sales comes great

My Addiction 02/18/2018 I have an affinity for cuteness. Especially stuffed animals. My love for cute is probably a contributing factor to my obsession with making dolls. Yes, I know for some it may be strange to call my scarier creations cute, but even with the bloodiest dolls I still think they have a certain charm. I have little piles of stuffed animals throughout my home. I have them arranged under my art desk: I have a shelf in my art room: And I have a shelf in my bedroom: I will not bring just any

Applying Myself 02/03/2018 Last month was the big "application" month. That's the time when I have to decide which art festivals I would like to partake in this year. I get inquiries about the process of showing at art festivals from people who would like to have their own booth. So for those of you who ask me or perhaps those of you who are just interested, this post is for you. First, on a scale from 1 - 10, I give myself a 7 in experience when it comes to art festivals. There are many artists who are full time and

Digital Painting 01/06/2018 I mentioned to Joe I was curious about digital painting. For Xmas he got me a Pen Tablet. I have mixed feelings about digital art. To my disappointment I love it profoundly. What would take me months to create traditionally with paints, I was able to accomplish in a couple of days. It does take a minute to get used to drawing without watching your hand, but already knowing how to paint helps out a great deal with having a steady hand. Having experienced digital painting for myself it has shed

Egg Yolk 12/26/2017 I often don't keep things I make. Pictured with this post is "Egg Yolk". I made her some time ago and decided to keep her and it's a good thing I did because she is my biggest fan. I have been accessorizing her and she serves as my personal cheer leader. She sits in my art room and when I see her I smile.
