I stumbled across the website of artist Jason Polan the other day. Among his completed pieces available on his website, you can buy an hour of art (or an entire day). Whatever he makes in that hour is yours. Sorta fun, no?

Sometimes it’s fun to just have fun. I did this little sketch yesterday and thought it would make a fun print. It is called ‘mind your manners.’ (may or may not be related to a recurring theme around here lately) I have a few more sketches the could make a cute little series of three […]

As I jump into new paintings and projects for the new year, I wanted to share what was probably the one that was the most fun of 2009. I was contacted to see if I would lend some of my paintings to a movie that was being made here in Portland, and while that alone […]

I’ve been trying to work on some paintings at least a bit each day, all in various states of completion. I am realizing I usually have been working a good hour or so before I become inspired and ‘ready’ to really go at it. I’ve never really done a warm up because I only have […]

So if you are a grandparent to our kids-STOP READING NOW!
I am quite proud of myself for actually getting this gift done. This is the time when I am busy getting portraits completed and off in time for others to give for the holidays, so unless I plan ahead, my own gifts can fall into […]

We are so doing this Christmas Day! We will be creating a ‘photo booth’ in the kitchen and I can’t wait to see the results! We did this years and years ago for my daughter’s third b-day and they are some of my favorite photos of her with all her family. I got inspired after […]

A series of paintings I just started. I usually go through several love/hate stages with each new piece. The idea stage, honeymoon stage, not so much of a honeymoon, maybe it will work out stage, and hopefully the it’s done and I’m completely happy with it stage.

Love good mail days! Today was this sweetly packaged pile of interesting scraps of paper from lovely design. True to the name, they are lovely. Some of these will be for my own personal use, some will be used in a super fun project I’m working on for a certain local film maker.

I have a full plate this weekend, lots of things to finish up before heading out of town for a few days. (grown-ups only road trip, woohoo!) There are two new projects I’m working on, one I can share soon, the other I am geekily thrilled by that probably won’t see the light of day […]

Today I am completely inspired by Sally Scott. The little videos are just so incredibly charming, I can’t stop watching them. Oh and the muted colors! (I love me some muted colors) and the stark white of the ice rink. Sigh, perfection….
