Candle Wash...

Arches Cold Pressed Watercolor Block

I think I am obsessed with the texture of this paper that I have been doing washes on.  They really give the images some depth.  I know these washes may be boring because there is not a lot of detail to them but I think with a whole series of them, together they work!  I have a candle, bell and lights I'm working on now, stay tuned! 

New Wash...


Newest wash for holiday cards!  Cant wait to get started are the rest and create more cards!

When you take a flower in your hand and really look at it, it's your world for a moment. I want to give that world to someone else.

Creating the Holiday Collection


I went back to grade school and did 4 simple ideas with an Acrylic wash,  and from the ideas I created an image.  I have another few ideas, I will post once they are finished.

Thinking about new business cards...

I'm thinking of new business cards is a step in the right direction.  

I'm a Procrastinator...

I have decided for the 5th time, to create a blog. Every time in doing so I have unfortunately failed. I am full of excuses and reasons why NOT to do something. However now I think the 6th time is a charm! I hope that this time it sticks and maybe my every day hectic life I can sort through and put onto my art blog.

Over the past few years after college, I have dabbled at many different creative ends. I am now happy to say that I think I have found my nitch in the art world! As happy as I am painting I wanted to do something with those paintings. I have started to explore the world or invitations and card designing! I have a website that, as we all can attest to, can be a pain updating every week, so I'm hoping that blogging new ideas and creations will help.

Check out my website so far and let me know what you think!

Also I still have my illustration website for my botanical illustrations here:
