cheap and cheerful

My greeting cards are back in stock at SEASONS.

I also added 3 new designs: 

"two sisters", "wise women", and "bird watchers"

collections

People always ask about artist's influences and, 

often, the sources are surprising!

I know smoking is wrong (and I don't even smoke)

but I have collected 1920's smoking flapper objects for years.

They're so sassy, liberated and BAD, 

I think they've become a muse for me of sorts.

Cubeb smokers.

Sometimes they even directly influence my artwork:

"The Hazards of Smoking"

22"

Vaudeville series 2004

birthday centerpieces

I just finished this piece for a golden birthday party.

She's a little over 19" tall.

Check out my face book link 

to see how messy things got in my studio 

when she was being made.

This b-day gal was commissioned for a 40th birthday,

but I think she's definitely suitable for everyday.

"lucky 40th"

kitty paintings

"my Velouria"

"the birdwatchers"
(available on Etsy)

"catherine the great and hot fudge"

"hot fudge" close up

I always get a lot of requests to do pet paintings. 

These are a few of the most recent.
